Which best describes your current work / skill background?
Why Skills Matter
How your skills and qualifications affect your overseas career
Many first-time migrants underestimate the value of getting certified before going abroad. Here is how verified skills change your placement outcomes.
Higher salary offers
Certified welders, electricians and plumbers are usually offered more than uncertified workers in the same role. Some European employers may reject uncertified candidates entirely for trade positions.
Easier to shortlist
Workers with verified skills and CTEVT certificates are easier for employers to shortlist, because they can trust the quality of the work.
Better job security
Skilled workers are harder to replace and more likely to have their contracts renewed. A first contract that gets renewed is significantly cheaper than the full cost of going abroad again — you avoid a second set of processing fees.
Access to more destinations
Some employers set strict skill-test requirements. European employers for engineering and healthcare roles require verifiable qualifications.
Skill Development
Upgrade your skills before going abroad
If the quiz recommends a role you are not yet certified for, consider getting certified before you apply. The upfront time and cost typically pays back within the first 2–3 months of your improved salary.
| Role | Certificate / Programme | Time Required |
|---|---|---|
| Welder | CTEVT Trade Test (Welding) | 1–3 months |
| Electrician | CTEVT Trade Test (Electrical) | 1–3 months |
| Driver (Heavy) | Heavy vehicle licence + CTEVT | 2–4 months |
CTEVT trade tests are conducted at government-approved centres across Nepal. Contact us if you want help finding a testing centre for your trade. Contact us for guidance →

FAQ
Common questions about the quiz
How accurate are the quiz recommendations?
The quiz provides a starting point based on your skills, experience, qualification and preferences. It narrows our role categories down to the 3 best fits for your profile. For a real job match, talk to our team, who can look at your full profile.
What if I have skills in multiple areas?
Choose the option that best describes your primary, strongest skill — the one you can demonstrate most confidently to an employer. If you have strong secondary skills, mention them when you talk to us. Cross-functional workers often qualify for more vacancies than the quiz can show.
Does my qualification level really matter?
Yes, significantly. Employers in Europe are particularly qualification-focused. A CTEVT trade certificate can often improve your offer compared with an uncertified worker in the same role. A bachelor's degree opens roles in healthcare, engineering and education that are not accessible without it.
I have no formal certificates — can I still work abroad?
Yes. Many roles in construction, housekeeping, security, factory work and farming require no formal certification. However, your wage offer will be lower than for certified workers. Consider enrolling in a CTEVT trade test programme (available for most trades) before going abroad — the cost is modest and the salary benefit is significant.
