✨ Find Your Footing. Build Your Future.

💡 What if your job search in Switzerland didn’t feel like guesswork?

Hi, I’m Pragati – an Indian expat, educator, former technology leader and founder of My Swiss Story.
When I moved to Switzerland in 2016, I arrived with more than a decade of global professional experience. I had skills. I had drive. But I quickly discovered that experience alone doesn’t mean you understand how a new job market works.
Cue frustration. Confusion. And quite a lot of figuring things out.
Over the years, through my own career journey and the hundreds of conversations we’ve had within the My Swiss Story community, I’ve learned a great deal about navigating professional life in Switzerland.
That’s why I created this guide.
💼 Your Swiss Job Search Playbook
This isn’t just another expat checklist.
This is a step-by-step guide for ambitious, skilled, and maybe-a-little-lost professionals like you.
“Pragati’s significant efforts in integrating into Switzerland and her passion for guiding others are evident throughout this book. She’s a superb guide on the subject, and we’re incredibly fortunate to benefit from her experience.” – Daniel Shalom, Founder and Managing Director – RigbyAG (Staffing and IT Services, Zurich)

- Understand the Swiss job market (and what nobody tells you about it)
- Decode permits and legalities without the migraine
- “Swissify” your CV and cover letter to make it past automated filters
- Build in-demand skills and get real about language learning
- Master LinkedIn, personal branding, and networking the Swiss way
- Prepare for interviews (even the tricky multilingual ones)
- Prioritize your mental health (because job searching is hard)
- Thrive after the offer – onboarding, culture shock, and long-term growth
“This isn’t just a guide -it’s a game-changer for every international professional aiming to break into the Swiss job market.” – Anisa Zafar, Author, Project Manager & Resilience Coach
💬 Real Talk, Real Tools, Real Community

- Bonus insights from other internationals
- Templates, checklists & prompts
- Practical strategies for strengthening your job search
- Access to the My Swiss Story job-seekers community
💰 Get your copy: USD 25
That’s less than a dinner out – and way more nourishing for your future.

“There’s no shortage of career advice online, but if you’re looking for something truly practical , holistic and tailored to the unique challenges of navigating the Swiss job market as a non-Swiss professional, this is the guide you’ve been waiting for.” – Sara Mobarhanfard, Business & Leadership Coach, Co-host of The Heart of the Equation Podcast
And if you’re still wondering if this is for you, ask yourself:
Do you want to stop feeling invisible in your job search?
Do you want to stop second-guessing your CV or visa status?
Do you want a guide that doesn’t sugarcoat but empowers?



Then yes — this guide is for you.
❤️ From My Swiss Story to Yours
This is more than a book. It’s a bridge — from where you are to where you deserve to be.
Let’s get you hired.
Let’s get you home.
