Why Choose Norway?
Norway is known for its high quality of life, but it's also a great place to start a career. With a strong economy, a modern business culture, and demand for qualified professionals, international students can find real opportunities here. Combined with values like inclusion, trust and balance, Norway offers a solid and supportive environment for both work and life.
Here’s why choosing Norway to launch your career is a good idea:
- A resilient labour market: Nearly 90% of individuals aged 25–34 with higher education in Norway are employed (OECD, 2024). This reflects a strong demand for skilled professionals and excellent opportunities for graduates.
- Work–life balance as a cultural norm: Oslo ranked 1st in the global Work–Life Balance Index (Kisi, 2022). Employers in Norway recognise the importance of rest, flexibility, and family time—which translates into a healthy and sustainable working environment.
- A digital and innovative economy: Norway ranks among the world’s most advanced digital economies, with strong demand for graduates who can use data and digital tools to solve problems and drive change.
"My colleagues remind me that I’m entering the workforce with the most updated knowledge in the field. They appreciate a fresh academic mindset."
- A values-based business culture: Flat hierarchies, trust, and collaboration define how people work together in Norway. You’re expected to contribute early and take responsibility—something international graduates often thrive in.
- Supportive immigration policies: After graduation, international students can apply for a one-year job seeker visa. Once employed, they may apply for a skilled worker permit—opening doors to long-term opportunities.
