What it does
Arbetsförmedlingen connects Swedish jobseekers with Platsbanken vacancies, career information and employment-service support. Its website also provides CV and interview resources, occupational outlooks and information about working in Sweden.
Use Platsbanken when you already know the work you want. If the direction is less clear, the occupation and interest guidance can help compare careers and training before collecting vacancies. The site separates those questions from CV, application and interview preparation.
People entering the employment-service process can follow registration and planning guidance, while existing participants have routes for activity reports and other personal matters. Extra-support information includes training, work practice and disability-related support, with conditions explained in the relevant service. Working in Sweden has its own section covering the employment context. Webinars, podcasts and videos offer another format for learning about a specific search problem without treating the vacancy board as the only useful part of the service.
