6. What else to keep in mind when talking to Swiss firms?
- Don’t say you move just for the money.
- Research the company and tailor everything you say to the
requirements of the firm. (I know it takes time, but Swiss firms get a lot
of applications and can be more picky.)
- Think how to make your move most smooth to proof your seriousness
to move. Most firms don’t pay for relocation.
