Sweden “invades” Norway

That was what the headline of an article posted about my company in one of Norways biggest newspaper. This is in Norwegian so it might be hard to understand for you english readers. Have a great day anyway!

- Svenskene som drar til Norge for å arbeide har en helt annen arbeidsmoral og holdning til arbeid enn andre svensker, sier Viktor Nord i Sverige-Norge.se til HegnarOnline.

Artikkel av: Øystein Byberg (HegnarOnline – 04.9.09 15:41) URL: http://www.hegnar.no/personlig_okonomi/article391433.ece

En skulle tro at arbeidsmarkedet i Norge ser mørkt ut. Men sammenlignet med andre land og særlig Sverige, er arbeidsmarkedet i Norge fortsatt veldig lyst. Det finnes nok av jobber i visse næringer. Et meget interessant aspekt på det hele er hvordan den svensk-innvandringen til Norge har økt.

- Svenskene som drar til Norge for å arbeide tilhører en bestemt gruppe arbeidstakere. De har en helt annen arbeidsmoral og holdning til arbeid enn andre svensker. Mange drar for å forfølge karrierer og ønsker derfor å utmerke seg på arbeid ved å jobbe hardt. Selvfølgelig spiller de høye lønningene, lave skatter og det faktum at det faktisk finnes jobber en stor rolle også. Det er større sannsynlighet for at de får beholde jobben sin, sier administrerende direktør Viktor Nord i Sverige-Norge.se, som kobler sammen svensk arbeidskraft med norske arbeidsgivere.

- Situasjonen kunne vært helt annerledes hvis Sverige hadde hatt en lav arbeidsledighet, høyere lønninger og lavere skatt enn Norge. Da hadde de dyktige nordmennene i stedet dratt til Sverige for å forfølge en karriere i stedet, sier Nord til HegnarOnline.

Ifølge Nord har antallet svensker som bor og arbeider i Norge mer enn fordoblet seg i løpet av de siste 10 årene; fra 33.000 til nesten 76.000. Hvis du ser på Oslo, hvor det er mest svensker, var der tidlig på 90-tallet drøye 3.000 svensker, mens det nå i 2009 finnes nærmere 11.000, de fleste i bydelen Frogner.

- Av de norske arbeidsgiverne som vi hjelper til å finne personell for, har vi bare fått positive tilbakemeldinger når det gjelder den svenske arbeidskraften, sier Nord.

Young Entrepreneur of Sweden – 2009?

A couple of weeks ago I got nominated for best young entrepreneur in Sweden (west side). This was really flattering but my expectations was small. I was up against more promosing and much better entrepreneurs such as Eric Martinsson & Therese Albrechtson. Against my expectations I won that nomination and now I’m one of the finalists in the national event in Stockholm. They recorded a video of me. Unfortunately the video is in Swedish but you’re welcome to have a look anyway even though you don’t understand. Just click on the picture below:

Jurys motivation: ” This year’s young entrepreneur in western Sweden has developed a service to help very many people to get work. Thousands of people have been recruited to Norwegian companies already. The contractor proved the first step in an interesting business building. The contractor is focused and has the ambition to take the company forward to the next “Ryan Air – Recruitment”

If you cast a vote on any of the competitors you have the oppertunity to win free tickets. I would really appreciate that you cast your vote on the most promising entrepreneur and not just on me if you personally know me. Honestly I think I don’t have a chance against the other competitors. What do you think?

Up against the Swedish young elite:

My competitors Marcus, Mattias and Ida are all three very successful entrepreneurs and they all deserve to win this competition. Unfortunately I don’t know them personally yet, but I hope I will meet them in Stockholm the 24th of September when the winner is named.

15.000 CV’s in 1 year

We launched our new system and user interface 17 may 2008 (Norways national day). After exactly one year we drew a line and made some statistics. Some really interesting things came up. Over 15.000 CV’s were registered which not may sound so much compared with 2 million Facebook users. But if you put 15.000 CV’s compared with Swedens biggest CV-database (AMS – arbetsförmedlingen) who only has around 5000 CV’s you get the picture. In one year we’ve got more than three times the size of theirs database. That’s quite good isn’t it?SverigeNorge.se_Statistik

According to our statistics over 1500 people got a job in Norway thanks to our site during year 2008. The comparison was made between Swedish people who wants to work in Norway, not the total amount of CV’s in the database.
