How this site works
What we check
We collect job postings from official sources and read the text of each one. We check two things: what language the job is advertised in, and whether the employer says anything about visa sponsorship.
We do not contact employers. Everything on this site comes from the posting itself.
Language
Most jobs in Europe are advertised in the local language, and if you cannot read the advert you usually cannot do the job. So we detect the language of every posting and let you filter for the ones written in English.
This is done automatically, by looking at common words. It is right most of the time and wrong occasionally. Some postings mix two languages, and some are too short to judge — those get no label rather than a guess.
Sponsorship
If a posting mentions visa sponsorship, we label it and quote the employer’s own words. If it does not, we say nothing.
- Sponsors
- The posting says sponsorship is available for this role. We quote the sentence on the job page.
- May sponsor
- The posting mentions sponsorship but hedges — “where applicable”, “for selected roles”, “for eligible candidates”. Ask before you apply.
- No sponsorship
- The posting says you must already hold the right to work in that country.
- No label
- The posting does not mention sponsorship at all. This is most jobs.
Why almost nothing says “we sponsor”
We have looked at job postings from five different sources across Europe. Out of thousands of adverts, a handful state that sponsorship is available.
That is not employers hiding it. It is how European hiring works. In the United States and Britain, “visa sponsorship” is a formal thing a company advertises. In most of Europe, hiring someone from outside the EU is a permit process the employer handles when they decide to hire you — so there is nothing to put in the advert.
So an unlabelled job is not closed to you. It is unanswered. The only way to find out is to ask the employer, before you spend time on an application.
What we are not
We are not an immigration adviser, a recruitment agency, or a placement service. We do not give advice about your own case, we do not handle applications, and we do not pass your details to anyone. Every job links straight to the employer’s own site.
We never charge job seekers, for anything. If a site asks you to pay for a job offer or a visa, that is a warning sign.
Mistakes
Our reading is automatic, so it will sometimes be wrong. The employer’s posting is always the authority, not our label. If you see a label that does not match the posting, tell us.
