    In most companies in Sweden it is fine to speak English. In a company that develops an app I would even assume that everything is in English except for the legal stuff.

      yeah, in order to communicate between legal and anyone i’d need to be level 5 proficient (fluent, indistinguishable from native. sorry, using interpreter certification levels because it’s what i know) in swedish and i can only order food and find out where the bathroom is right now. i’m not even level 1. no fucking way i can get up to level 5 in time for a job interview, that’d take at least 3 years of total immersion and working at a law firm.
