American Looking for Work in Zurich

15 years ago
My boyfriend and I have been commuting from New York to Zurich for the past 2 years. We have decided to make the move and I will be relocating to Zurich this fall. I currently do not have a job or visa, and since we are not married, I will not be able to stay longer than the tourist visa allows until I secure a job. As I have spoken to many people regarding the subject, most feel it will be necessary to live in Zurich in order to secure employment. I am now living in Manhattan, working in the fashion industry for an extremely reputable, high end designer in sales and marketing, and also have a degree in Public Relations from the University of Texas at Austin. I feel that with my experience I should be able to find a job in the communications field.
Our obvious concern is me not having a job. Does anyone have ideas, experience, contacts, etc in this department? Any and all ideas are welcome and appreciated!
