With a temporary residence permit issued specifically for studies work is allowed as long as the holder studies as intended. A former student can, on certain conditions, apply for a work permit from within Sweden and does not like most other people have to apply from home. This is the only formal advantage in this situation. It may be possible to stay on and work in Sweden, but you must have an employment offer where the employer demonstrates that the position already has been advertised in the EU and that the salary and other conditions are not inferior to what is usual. In practice you will need skills that are in very high demand.

Apply and see if you meed the criteria to get a student visa to Student to Sweden. The Swedish government has introduce fees for all non-EU students in Sweden 210. International students are not allowed to work part/full time in Sweden
2 :
www.studyinsweden.se and www.studera.nu Check out those websites they have all the info that you will need. Once you get a student residence permit you automatically get a work permit but there is a catch. You have to have this personal number. If your program is longer than 1 year then you get a personal number as soon as you arrive and you will have no trouble applying for jobs because you must have a personal number just to apply. On the other hand if your course is for less than one year than you are not eligible for a personal number, but you are still able to work. Well, actually you get a 'pseudo' personal number that is alpha-numeric instead of the normal one that is only numbers. It can be tricky though because most reputable employers wont give you the time of day if you don't have this number and in order to get it you have to have a job offer. Plus, it is pretty difficult to find work in Sweden if you don't speak Swedish. Good luck.

Will my hair blow dryer/straightener (from USA) work in Sweden
Will my hair blow dryer/straightener (from USA) work in Sweden?
I'm going on vacation to Sweden in a week weeks, and I'm wondering if my blow dryer and hair straightener (that I bought here in the US) will work there, with the different power and plugs and such? And what would I have to buy to get them to work there? I know you can buy a plug adaptor thing that will make it fit into the outlet there, but what about the different voltage?

if you have an adaptor plug it should work well. my english GHDs worked in germany and spain. :)
2 :
You would need an adaptor, as an American plug would not fit in a Swedish socket. I do not know if such an adaptor is easy too obtain in the US, but there should be no problem in Sweden, e g Kjell & Company, with 40 stores in Sweden, carry one for SEK 89 (approx USD 11). Voltage in Sweden is 230 V AC 50 Hz (som older installations electric razors in bathrooms for have 115 V). Many appliances are able to work with 110–240 V and 50–60 Hz. Usually voltage limits are written on appliances. Do not guess! Equipment not approved for 230 V should only be used with a transformer.

I want to migrate to Sweden to work and live

So move, nobody is stopping you. Unless it's the Kenyan or Swedish government. Then you've got a problem.
2 :
What's your question? Since you're not an EU citizen you need a company or whatever to sponsor you to work for them. It needs to be legit and it's not easy getting a work permit unless your line of work is in demand. For Americans and so on I always recommend trying to find work in a company with departments in Sweden and then asking for a transfer but there are few companies that have departments in both Kenya and Sweden. If you're educated in a profession that's in high demand you could give it a go though. But there's another problem of course - language. Which is why I always suggest the transfer option because finding work in Sweden whilst not speaking Swedish can be tricky to say the least. Unless you work in IT or engineering you may have difficulties. Which leads me to option B: Do what I just said in another EU country. Since you speak English the UK would make sense since it might be easier to find work. Once you get a work permit and then further down the road permanent residency (and then citizenship) you can simply move freely to Sweden as an EU citizen. I know refugees who do this the other way around (that is, apply for asylum in Sweden - naturalise - and then move on to the UK). Which I think is abuse to the system, btw, but it's different when you're a work immigrant. ;) Good luck!
