I’m considering a possible move from the USA to Norway. I’m a master electrician here in the US, and also an on site foreman on commercial construction jobs. I also have experience in service and maintenance of commercial buildings. I’m wondering what kind of jobs I would be able to get in a place like Norway, and how hard it would be to find employment. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks.
