AI-drafted, editorial review pending. The official links below are checked — confirm specifics with the authority.
The Public Employment Service (AMS) runs the national job portal and placement service, and vacancies across the EU are on EURES. Job advertisements in Austria must state the minimum pay under the applicable collective agreement and whether more may be paid. For non-EU candidates the job offer usually comes first, because most Red-White-Red Card routes are tied to a specific employer.
- AMS lists vacancies nationwide and its data underlies the annual list of shortage occupations.
- Job advertisements must state the collective-agreement minimum pay and whether more may be paid.
- EU, EEA and Swiss citizens can work without a permit; others need a residence title that allows work.
