The basic task of the EURES network is to provide services useful to all workers, jobseekers and jobseekers, as well as employers who are interested in enjoying the rights of free movement of persons. The provision of EURES services is possible in two basic ways. On the one hand, there are databases accessible on the European Job Mobility Portal, on the other hand, they are information and counseling services offered by EURES Advisers in the Member States. EURES Advisers will provide you with useful information on your responsibilities before leaving for work in another EU country. EURES advice is provided free of charge.
EURES Advisers in the Czech Republic work at selected branches of the Labor Office of the Czech Republic, and contacts are published on its website. You can find the EURES ČR portal on the website of the Labor Office of the Czech Republic.
EURES Advisers will inform you if and how to unsubscribe from the records of the Labor Office of the Czech Republic, how to use the transfer of unemployment benefits abroad, what obligations you have towards your Czech health insurance company, etc. At the same time you will get information about what steps you must take after arriving in the selected country , eg registration for residence, registration for payment of social and health insurance, income taxes, how to register with a doctor and more. These obligations vary from country to country.
If you do not have a pre-arranged job, EURES Advisers will help you find suitable job offers, provide you with links to job portals and advise you on how to prepare your CV and how to prepare for a competition. Job offers in EU / EEA countries and Switzerland suitable for Czech citizens can be found, for example, on the website of the Labor Office of the Czech Republic.

IT IS STILL IMPORTANT TO BE AWARE…
Knowledge of a foreign language is an important prerequisite for working abroad. It is needed for communication at work, but also for meetings at various offices, where you will handle the necessary administration. If you do not have sufficient language skills, start preparing in advance in terms of language as well. Your chances of finding a job abroad depend on the demand for labor and a certain qualification in the labor market. The simplest indicators of this demand are the vacancies, their number and the qualification structure of the required professions.
