Sweden needs 18,000 tech talents each year

At Switch to Sweden, we are bridging the talent gap by linking Swedish companies with international academics.

Our solution? The AI Talent Matchmaking Tool, developed by our partners Cruitive.

We focus on connecting companies with international academic talents already in Sweden, aligning skills and motivations with business needs. It’s a fast and efficient way to find your perfect match.

And it’s making an impact. To date, we’ve facilitated over 300 successful matches.

How does the matchmaking work?

  2. Get matched
    Our matchmaking tool pairs companies with the most suitable candidates based on skills, motivations, and business needs.
  3. Meet your match
    Companies and talents connect during dedicated meet-and-greet sessions, offering the perfect opportunity to network and explore potential collaborations.


FAQ

We mainly share information and recommendations on what are the best steps to explore a career in Sweden. We also create matchmaking activities with international talents who are already in Sweden and companies on a regional and national level.

We share information and recommendations on the benefits and processes of working with international academic talent. We also invite all companies in Sweden to participate in matchmaking activities to meet potential international talent directly.

You can subscribe to the newsletter for students or companies. There we will share key information to find your perfect match!

The AI Matchmaking Tool works through a question form. The questions cover specific skills and motivational factors. Companies and students must fill out the same form and the answers are compared through the tool.

If there is a high degree of compatibility between the answers, it will be a positive match. If the answers of skills and interests are incompatible (the candidate does not have the skills or motivations that the company needs), then it will not be considered a match.
