Dear Bhavna,
Thanks for the information !!
I was been informed that concerning possibilities of relocating to Switzerland, however, there are some significant formal obstacles.
Swiss immigration law is very tough and the employer would have to prove that no person in Switzerland can be found that is capable of doing the job.
It is true ? If yes then is there is some otherway ?
Best regards,
Sanjeev

It is true that any Swiss employer must prove that they cannot find a local to undertake the job. There is no other way.
