Don't find many hourly contract, usually day rate.
As others have said, difficult part is finding somewhere cheap to live.
Usually spend the first few months spending more than you get. A float of around 5K min required.

MF works for less as there is easy chocolate availability.

Thank you ;-)

If it's in Zurich, be prepared to have difcult to find an apartment less tham 3000CHF / month. The cheapest ones are already booked.
