JOB SEEKER

One of the requirements to immigrate to a country and obtain a work residence is to have a job offer or a work invitation from a company and employer in the destination country. To receive a job offer from a country, you must be able to apply for job offers related to you from the job sites of that country to persuade the employer to send you an invitation. But sometimes it is not possible to receive a job offer in absentia, and it is necessary to be able to find your suitable job position and succeed in getting a job offer by being in the country and visiting different companies. But to stay in the respective country and look for a job, you need a visa, which is possible through the job seeker visa.

What is a Job Seeker?

A job seeker visa is a permit that some countries issue to applicants so that, according to the law of that country, the applicant can stay in the respective country for 6 to 9 months and look for a suitable job and job offer.
