Career Opportunities

Denmark offers a wide variety of prospects for working after convocation. Whether you are factually focused on advancing your career or want to find the right balance between work and life the Danish job market will have convenience for you. Which field do you want to pursue a career in? Here’s how different nationalities can go about their Danish post-graduation job-hunt:

  • Nordic citizens of Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden are free to enter, reside, study and work in Denmark. Neither visas nor residence or work permits are required.
  • EU/EEA/Swiss citizens do not need to apply for a work permit. You may stay in Denmark under the EU rules regarding the free movement of people and services. But if you want to stay for longer than three months, you must apply for a registration certificate under EU rules.
  • The application must be submitted within three months of entering Denmark. Please note: the special interim arrangement concerning employees from Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Romania, Slovakia and Slovenia ended on 1 May 2009.
  • Non-EU/EEA/Swiss citizens will need a residence permit to work in Denmark. Upon graduation from a Danish higher education institution, your residence permit will remain valid for an additional six months, allowing you to seek employment in Denmark.
  • As a benefit for jobseekers, some educational institutions offer alumni networks to their graduates.
