Hello Olva and welcome to Expat.com

May I suggest you to read the Guide to Norway and more particularly the chapters on Visas, Work and Accommodation. I'm sure they will give you very good hints.

If you look in Oslo's Classifieds -> Accommodation you might get an idea on the prices of accommodation also.

Have a nice day further
Arlette

I moved here six months back. For apartment you can refer finn.no but this is in norwegian language. I could not find any english website here. I am living in city centre and it depends on what type of apartment you want. You can rent a single room apartment easily under NOK 10,000 in centre (this is not the cheap area of course).

Hi Olva,

Though for some bizarre typically norwegian reason, its only part in english..

Might help. If not, look up places like Manpower, Adecco, etc.
