Put your qualifications to work

You studied and worked in one country and now live in another. HEIDI helps you see what your profession needs where you live, show your skills to employers and find work that matches them.

What you can do

  • Screening & Mapping Tool

    Answer questions about your profession, your qualifications and the country you live in. You get a personal set of next steps in four directions: continue in your profession, complete your qualifications, move to a new profession or start your own business. Download them as a PDF or send them to your email.

  • Skills Certification Tool

    Work through short everyday scenarios that show eight transversal skills, such as critical thinking, communication and digital skills. It takes about 25 to 30 minutes and gives you a score for each skill. The questions are in English and Norwegian.

  • CV builder

    Build your CV step by step and download it as a PDF in the language you choose.

  • Job listings

    Find jobs posted by employers and apply. Applying opens a conversation with the employer in your inbox.

  • Career counsellors

    Find a counsellor in the portal and write to them. Counsellors register themselves; the HEIDI team does not verify them independently.

Professions and countries

The Screening & Mapping Tool covers these professions. Choose your country when you start.

The portal itself works in English, Spanish, Norwegian, Lithuanian, German, Estonian and Croatian.
