I Want to Move to Switzerland Without a Sponsor

15 years ago
I want to move from the U.S. to Europe. One of my chosen countries is Switzerland. I will not be sponsored by any company. Of course, I will look for jobs in my chosen country.

My professional background spans from a legal assistant, Information Technology (computer, software and network support), Sales and Marketing and Finance (invoicing, report generation, account manager and customer support invoice conflict resolution)... all in that order.

I am also a ghost writer and have developed my own dating and fitness website, which is doing well.

I am a woman in my 40's with no degree (some college), but a wealth of experience and talent.

I do have friends living in the countries I've chosen. But, no relatives.

What are the requirements to live in Switzerland, and what are the limitations based on my profession and education?

I'm hoping someone here will be able to give me some clarity, or at least lead me in the right direction toward my research.

Thanks so much in advance!
