Do I have a chance to find a job in Norway?

11 years ago
Hello,

I would like to move to Norway next year. I would like to find a job there and to begin a new life (me and my wife are about to get divorce).

I have heard that it is not easy to find a job when I do not speak Norwegian but I have also heard that it is not essential for some jobs. I know that many Norwegians,especially young people, can speak English very well, so that my English will not be such an advantage (I am not a native speaker).

I am not neither an engineer nor a craftsman (I am not sure whether this is the right word but I hope you do understand what I mean). I attended just a high-school (business). I used to work as a sales representative.

I am 26, EU citizen (from the Czech Republic).

Do I have a chance to work at least as a worker (in a factory)?
Is it hard to find a job in Norway for people like me?

Thank you for your answers!
