Working in Europe: what our guides cover

Europe is one of the destinations foreign workers research most when looking for legal routes into hospitality, logistics, care, construction, agriculture and skilled trades. Each country has its own rules: some use seasonal quotas, others shortage lists, employer sponsorship or points-based residence routes. This Europe hub brings together all our country guides for Italy, Spain, France, Portugal, the United Kingdom and Germany, so you can compare permits, typical roles and official portals in one place.\n\nEvery country card leads to a full category of role guides written for that market. They are not vacancy listings, and nothing is submitted on your behalf. Use the grid of latest guides below to look through recent articles from across the region, then open the country whose language, licence and document requirements you can realistically meet. Be wary of recruiters who promise guaranteed visas, ask for large fees up front, or will not name the employer and the exact type of permit. Before you spend money on agencies or travel, check fees, forms and eligibility on the government websites linked in each guide.
