Hi jackass,

Please feel free to tell your friend to post an advert in the Couchsurfing in Norway section, this might surely help. Thank you!

To get a job in Norway for him is not a problem since he has European Nationality, but he need help to stay in Norway as he has no any contact in Norway and doesn't have much money to pay for rent/accomodation..

simply having the right to work in Norway doesn't mean it's "not a problem" to get a job, unfortunately. It's actually a growing problem in the country that people think all they need is to show up and they'll be welcomed with open arms, social benefits, and high-paying work.

As dmcart has posted here several times, Norway is not a great place to be unemployed and without much money. I advise he look into how feasible it REALLY is for him to get a job.

I can confirm that.
If your friend has specific skills in his CV (engineering) or already speaks norwegian he has a chance, otherwise he may end up in trouble, living here is quite expensive.
