Multilingual career information

The multilingual content of the online Occupational Information System of the Austrian Public Employment Service has been expanded to include content in Ukrainian and Russian.

In the Occupational Information System occupational and apprenticeship profiles can be displayed in nine languages after a recent expansion. In addition to German, English, Turkish, Bosnian, Croatian, Serbian and Persian, Ukrainian and Russian have been added of late. To see an example (bricklayer), simply follow the link. For a further update of the platform in the future, the complete translation of the search function is planned.
