Life in Norway Show Episode 77: Isabelle Loh talks about her relocation from Singapore to Norway, and the challenges of finding work in the Norwegian capital.
Moving to Norway from outside Europe poses a whole heap of challenges, not least convincing an employer to take a chance on you.
Today I’m joined by Isabelle Loh, originally from Singapore and having relocated to Oslo with her Norwegian partner, she shared her frustrations about finding a job on LinkedIn, and drew a big response.
We talk about life in Oslo, how she’s gone about the job search and how that has changed over time, and some advice for fellow job-seekers. She includes advice on structuring your CV, and the importance of networking.
