If your an International student from outside the EEA you are not allowed to work in Sweden. Sweden is a very expenses country to live in. You need a residence permit to work there and you are supposed to go back to your home country after the graduation.

Will my degree in America, work in Sweden

Will my degree in America, work in Sweden?
So I've been planning to go to Sweden for awhile now, but..I will be taking classes soon in the Cosmetology/Esthetician area in America. When I go there, will it mean anything to have studied these things or will it be a total waste of time? Will I be able to find a job?

Most likely your degree will not be honoured in Sweden, but with what you have learned you will be able to get a course in Sweden in the same field and have it much easier to pass the exams. I have never heard about a degree in the Cosmetology/Esthetician area in Europe, but I am not specialized in higher education nor in Cosmetics and so on, so you might be able to get your papers 'translated and reevaluated' so you can use them to find work. It is however not one of the fields of education that makes it easier to get visa and work permits.

Yeah, any education is good =) In Sweden you can study cosmetology but you will get more of a certificate than a degree. I don't think there is an abundance of jobs in that area of work but you could look at work in hair salons, spas, even leisure centres. It's difficult to find work in Sweden period, for anyone with any type of degree... I don't think it will be a waste of time, but if you are moving to a smaller city you may struggle to find work in that area. Be prepared to do something slightly different. If you are moving to a larger city then you may have bigger chances of getting something. Just know that these type of work places are far more common in the States than in Sweden. I have never even seen a nail salon in Sweden (they do exist though somewhere I'm sure) =)) I'm Swedish but I have a degree from the States and never had any problem. Everyone speaks English so I don't even bother translating my transcripts.

I believe you can work as much as you want too. But it's not easy getting jobs though.
2 :
Students from Nordic, EU and EEA countries are permitted to work in Sweden throughout the academic year. Students from other countries may work and do not need a work permit to do so provided they are enrolled at the university and have obtained a residence permit. However, full-time studies require 40 hours of work a week and are difficult to combine with part-time work. Please bear in mind that opportunities for part-time work in Sweden are limited and that most jobs require knowledge of Swedish.

I am fairly certain that certain games only work for certain regions. For example, a North American game only works on a North American console. Or a Japanese game won't work on a European console. At least, that is how it worked on the PS2. I am not sure about the current generation of consoles.
