If you are planning to find a job in Slovakia, we recommend that you select the type of work you are interested in. When choosing a suitable occupation, we recommend considering the actual jobs currently available within our labour market, occupations in which there are labour shortages, and your own qualifications and practical skills.
The Slovak job market primarily offers vacancies in the transportation, healthcare, and warehousing sectors, with ongoing demand for workers in the automotive and engineering industries. To succeed in the Slovak job market, having a well-prepared resume and various formal and informal recommendations from former employers, relatives, acquaintances, and friends will be beneficial.
You should choose your job search strategy after considering the above factors. Searching for job offers on the internet is one of the most widely used and fastest ways of accessing the websites of public and private institutions with job offers.
Some job portals also offer foreign language versions of their sites with the option to register resumes. If you are unemployed, Labour, Social Affairs and Family Offices can also offer various counselling services. Job agencies can also help you to find a job. Please note that they may charge administration fees for their services in some situations. Temporary employment agencies and supported employment agencies are another avenue you can explore when searching for work in Slovakia.
If you come across a job that is suited to you, you should respond as quickly as possible and send your CV and a cover letter using the contact details provided in the job advert. When you prepare these documents, make sure you do the best you can as this is your first contact with your future employer.
