Hi everyone

I am not new to switzerland but i am new to the site! i am currently working in zurich but want to work in basel where i live but there never seems to be many jobs around for me. i work in IT and am a cisco ccie and would like to know if anyone has got any good links to sites for basel.
i have approached a lot of companies and my CV is with most agencies but i think there is hardly any jobs here. Unfortunately i am not very good at languages and never have been but it seems your CV is binned at this stage. I only have an L permit as i'm contracting and its a real pain in the backside as companies it seems drop your application.

If anyone has some tips then it would appreciated.

thanks
Matt
Are you swiss? Or can speak Swiss-German?
High german? French?

If none of the above, sorry, no levels of permits will likely get you a job, without some "contacts".
Although there is an anti-discriminatory law on recruitment, I think the swiss companies are unlikely to hire a non-swissperson. The political price is too high.

Your only chance is a MNC.
