Will a type F plug work in Switzerland?
Germany uses type F electric plugs. Switzerland uses type J electric plugs. Both countries have 230 volts.

The Switzerland plugs have grounding pins. I can't really tell from the photos on the referenced page, but the F plugs might fit in there. However, why not just buy the grounded J plug to be safe?
2 :
Switzerland has it's own standard, but most appliances use a simple type C plug (no problem using appliances with that standard wherever they've been bought). Unfortunately a type F plug usually doesn't work in Switzerland, but you may be veeeery lucky and still somehow manage to force it in... Since that's pretty dangerous and in most cases won't work anyway, I'd advise you to get a converter.

The answer is a definitive NO! If you find a J outlet, you may however plug in a C plug. Any other plug would ruin your appliances. An adaptor would look like this: http://wcs.minibarebones.de/Reisestecker/Reisestecker-Deutschland-%3E-Schweiz::24.html?XTCsid=rlg4edvl1i7182ojqttu5qinr5. Buy it in any super market here, it only costs a few bucks.

How do I get a work permit for Switzerland
How do I get a work permit for Switzerland?
I am a teacher by profession and would like to work in France or Switzerland. Most of the recruiting agencies abroad are looking for people who already hold a permit or who is European. Can someone please advise me how to apply for a work permit on my own? Thanks in advance for your responses. I am a primary school teacher. At the present moment I am teaching English in Istanbul, Turkey. There are a few international schools who are looking for classroom and English teachers throughout Europe.

I am french and I lived in switzerland and now i live close to the franco swiss border in France. First of all in your question, you did not specify what you teach or wether you speak fluently french or german (in switzerland the two main languages are german and french). In France if you want to be a permanent teacher (meaning you can' t be fired, you can not be unemployed) in high school or in middle school and you teach some general subjects like history geography math or litterature, philosophy , you have to be a citizen of an european country and you have to take a national exam (CAPES), or you can apply for a job as a substitute teacher but you still have to be an european. Otherwise I heard if you teach some specific subjects, you are not required to be an european and therefore you can apply for a work permit, not sure though. About Switzerland , I can tell you that they are very strict on immigration for non european citizen. Except Ireland and UK many countries in Europe are very protective with their job markets, I would suggest you either to marry a french man (you get the french citizenship after 2 years one of the easiest with british one, swiss citizenship 10 years, german citizenship 7 years) , or you go there and get a student visa (university is free in France ) and after you get permanent residence and you have to wait for 5 years. If you have any other questions feel free to ask me Life in Swiss is quite expensive but they make so much money. Life in France is great, but you pay a lot of taxes , get ripped off in some way but in return, free healthcare, free university, huge governement benefits;
2 :
1. You do not specify your nationality but I assume that you are Turkish. 2. For Switzerland you can not as a foreigner apply for a work permit on your own but a potential employer has to get one for you. So the process is as follows: you see a job advert for a job in Switzerland, you apply for it, the employer thinks that you are the right person and THEN he has to get a permit for you from the foreigner's police. And only after the employer has done his bit, you might get a work permit, it is not guaranteed.

Austria and Germany are members of the EU. Switzerland isn't. For you got get a job in any of the two EU members states you have to have an offer of a job. An employer would have to advertise the job in all 27 EU countries before taking someone from outside the EU. Generally speaking, it is very difficult to get a job in Switzerland. Again like the EU an employer must make a formal job offer for issue of a work permit. The employer then applies for a residence permit from the police immigration section of the local canton. Decision on granting a permit depends on a series of variable criteria such as the type of job, qualifications, etc
3 :
i´d say Austria and Germany are easier to get in to, Switzerland is harder, you would need to get a job, and also Switzerland isn´t a part of the european union but it is a part of schengen space, so perhaps if you get a job in the other 2 could eventually find one in Switzerland.
