Boomed in Switzerland

Around Lake Geneva, they prefer English speakers over German speakers. Of course, if like me you speak English, French and German, you generally have no problem.

Moi non plus. Of course I can afford a hotel in Geneva during a Messe.

Left doom and gloom blighty 4 weeks ago ... and came to Zurich to work.

Hope you come back to Uk before April 2010 - need you to help with the UK recession with all that additonal tax you will owe to HMRC

Heard it from a mate over there. Been looking to move over to CH for a while now, but family committments among other things have stopped the move.

He reckons its getting more difficult to find decent accommodation and that for work, the CH will (I suppose for obvious reasons), take a German speaker over a non german speaker in most cases even if the workign language is English.

That is only one persons opinion, so consider the viewpoint accordingly

It is indeed, they prefer German speakers mostly, though international firms don't mind English speaking living locally. Trying to find a Swiss job from the UK is more difficult.

Accomodation isn't too bad if you don't want to live in the middle of Zürich.
