Starting to look around...

Hi All,

I'm a Canadian/American currently living in San Francisco with my Swiss boyfriend. We plan on moving to Zurich for about six months starting in November 07. I'm starting to look around for opportunities and this seems like a great place to get advice! I speak English and French fluently, I am an intermediate German speaker (but probably would not pass the German test for fluency, maybe by the end of the year). In my hunt for jobs in switzerland it seems hard to find anything which does not require a visa already, or which is not located near a ski resort!

My questions:
1) Are there any job sites which list temporary jobs in English? Are there are any jobs sites which list exclusively for foreigners?
2) I am currently working for a major national retailer as a merchandiser/buyer in HQ. I would be very grateful if anyone could lead me to a fashion/retail industry contact in the Zurich area. I love this industry and would like to continue working in it!
3) If that is not possible, I think I would enjoy working in the tourism industry as a temporary job, does anyone know a good website which could lead me to tourist jobs for foreigners in the zurich area?
4) Any other advice on the temporary job hunt would be appreciated!

Thanks for your help.
