The brief

Settling into life in Switzerland means a paperwork avalanche. Forms in three languages. Salary norms no one explains. A lease your landlord wrote for someone with a Swiss law degree. We unpicked all of it, tool by tool, so the small things stop being big ones.

Frequently asked

Quick answers.

All questions
Yes. Swiss CVs include a photo, a permit and nationality line, and an Arbeitszeugnis reference structure that UK, US, or EU CVs typically omit. ATS systems screen against the Swiss format. Studies show 70–80% of CVs are filtered out at the ATS stage before a recruiter ever sees them.
It’s free, no account. The number you see is the same number a customer sees. Take-home estimates and the cantonal tax context come bundled. The CV Optimizer (CHF 3) and Lease Translator (CHF 5) pay for the platform.
Same as German. Upload the PDF, pick your output language, and you get a clause-by-clause translation plus a Swiss-law check. Romandie leases skew toward French; Ticino toward Italian. Both are first-class supported.
Gone within 24 hours. We don’t keep CVs, leases, or salary inputs after delivery. No account, no profile, no marketing list.

Stop guessing.
Start living.

The paperwork was never the problem. Not knowing what it said was.
