Hi,
I am living in Geneva since July. At the moment, I am leaning french (Intensive course). Professioanlly, I am a dietician.

Could anyone give me any information about the job market here for nutritionists/dietitians? I have a permit B, so I am eligible to seek employmet in Suisse. I am specially interested in working for the International Organisations (UN, ICRC, WHO, FAO...etc.).

I would also like to know about the Red Cross Certification for Dieticians here, the ''RD''(Registered Dietitian). I have a Masters in Food and Nutrition and have around 3 years of work experience.

Please reply soon if you have any information regarding my field of work.

Many thanks.

Am extremely sorry for the typo errors in my post.....wrote it in a rush

Thanks!
I would be likely to move to Zurich, but it would be interesting to know what there is available in Geneve to get an idea.

My only concern is my lack of German language skills - i'm trying but it's slow process

I've emailed the Red Cross too, so if I find anything out i'll message you.

You should keep an eye on the Vacancies page of Reliefweb:

http://www.reliefweb.int/rw/res.nsf/doc212?OpenForm

Choose "Food" as the "By Sector" option - there are positions open for nutritionists, but none of them in Switzerland at the moment.

Also just found these sites:

This link has some important email contacts
Look at Filière Diététique
