How realistic is it to get a Swedish work permit through a service job?
I am an international master's graduate in sustainable development. Recently, I've been feeling very discouraged about job hunting :( For international graduates without experience, finding work in this field is nearly impossible. I've also applied for other positions, but switching careers has proven just as difficult. Of course, I'm currently applying for internships to gain some experience, but those haven't worked out either. I'd like to stay in Sweden and am interested in simple service jobs such as waiter, receptionist, or store assistant. However, I don't know how challenging it is for a foreigner needing a work permit. I understand that if the salary meets the requirement and the employer is willing to sponsor it, one can obtain a work visa. But what are the actual chances of this? I hope someone with experience could share some insights. (I primarily speak English, but I can also speak basic Swedish.)
