# Looking for full time work in Norway

By Roy Osherove April 16, 2012

**Historical article** · Originally published April 16, 2012; technical details may be outdated.

It’s decided.

I want to live with my family in norway (unless some magical opportunity comes my way from Sweden!) for a few years and see what happens. It seems like a big place of opportunity and learning, and here in Israel the feeling is that I’m kind of stuck. plus the travel to Norway 4 times a year is not great. 

I’m looking for a company to sponsor me for a work permit for a year or more (1-2 years for now). This is a full time job, and what I’m looking for is working in any of the following areas: 

- Training [about TDD](https://osherove.com/tdd-training/) and [Team Leadership](https://osherove.com/leadership-course/)
- CTO
- Consuting about TDD and team leadership
- Coding and leading (.NET or Ruby, Or Python or Node.js Or frontend stuff, hopefully more than one langauge)
- [Writing](http://artofunittesting.com/) and Speaking at places
- … Your ideas are welcome. I’ll try anything once..!

[Contact me](https://osherove.com/request-more-info/)

What I need:

- the company handles all the paperwork for getting me and my family over there
- the company helps me find a place for the family to live, school and kindergarten for my kids
- I need to be able to continue providing my courses, possibly even more of them, with some cut to the hosting company 
- A role where I can make a difference

When?

Either August 2012 or Aug 2013, depending on how fast we can make things happen.

If you [want me to work with you ping me here](https://osherove.com/request-more-info/).
