Jobs explorer
See what work looks like in each destination before you commit to one.
A salary only means something next to the job it belongs to, the level it expects and where it is based.
The jobs explorer puts real job postings from across our eight destinations in one searchable place. Each listing shows the title, employer, city, field, work arrangement, the pay when the posting states it, and what the posting says about visa sponsorship, so you can judge a role on more than its headline pay.
Postings come from third-party job data providers and cover the last 30 days. Pay is shown in the local currency, with a modeled take-home estimate beside it when the pay is stated in the destination’s own currency, so a role in Toronto and a role in Eindhoven can be read on the same footing. Open any listing to read the description, go to the original posting to apply, and carry the salary into the pay tool.
What you can do
- Browse postings by destination, field and work arrangement (on-site, hybrid or remote), and by how recently they were posted. With a free account you can also search by role, employer or skill, and filter by seniority and minimum pay.
- Read the salary range in the local currency alongside a modeled estimate of what reaches your account after tax and mandatory contributions.
- Open a listing to read the description, see the location, field and work arrangement, and see what the posting says about sponsorship.
- Sort listings by our recommended order or by newest. With a free account you can also sort by highest pay.
- Send a role’s salary into the after-tax pay calculator in one step, so you never retype a number.
- Report a posting that looks wrong, expired or misleading. A posting that several people report is hidden automatically.
How it works
- Search and filterStart from a country and a field, or, with a free account, a role or skill, and see what is there.
- Read the listingCheck arrangement, location and sponsorship wording, not just the pay line.
- See the take-homeWhen the pay is stated in the destination’s currency, the modeled take-home shows what the gross figure becomes once tax is applied.
- Carry it forwardOpen the calculator with the listing’s salary, then price the city in the cost-of-living tool. Apply on the original posting.
Who it suits
Best for professionals who have a skill and an open mind about where to use it, and for anyone comparing an offer against alternatives in other countries.
Good to know
Postings are published by employers and collected by third-party providers. We do not verify them, and a posting may be filled or withdrawn before we remove it. Pay and sponsorship wording are as posted, and seniority is inferred from the job title. Postings older than 30 days are removed.
After-tax pay
Turn a gross salary into what actually reaches your account, in any of eight countries.
Headline pay hides tax and mandatory contributions. Take-home is the number a household lives on.
The after-tax pay calculator takes a gross annual salary and applies the income tax and mandatory social contributions of the destination you choose. It shows the result per year and per month, so you can set it directly against a monthly budget.
Nothing is hidden inside a single “tax” figure. Each deduction is its own line, with the rule behind it and the assumptions it relies on, and the page tells you what is not included. You also see your marginal rate: how much of the next thousand you earn you would actually keep.
What you can do
- Enter a gross salary and see income tax, social contributions and take-home pay, per year and per month.
- Read every deduction as its own line, with the rule and the assumptions behind it written out in plain language.
- Switch destination and see the same salary converted and taxed under that country’s rules, so two offers are compared fairly.
- See your effective tax rate and your marginal rate, including what the next 1,000 you earn would keep.
- See pay in the destination’s currency, with the exchange-rate basis stated.
- Open the method page to read, for each country, exactly what “after tax” includes and what it leaves out.
How it works
- Choose a destinationPick one of the eight countries. The rules, currency and contributions change with it.
- Enter gross payType the annual salary from an offer or a listing, or send one over from the jobs explorer.
- Read the breakdownSee tax and contributions as separate lines, then the take-home figure by year and month.
- CompareChange country and watch the same salary resolve into a different take-home.
Who it suits
Best for anyone holding a job offer or a salary expectation who wants to know what it is really worth in each country.
Good to know
Estimates are for a single resident employee with no dependants, using simplified national rules and fixed reference exchange rates. Use them to compare, not as a payslip.
Cost of living
Price a month of real life for your household, across 15 cities.
Take-home pay is only half of the question. What it buys depends on housing, childcare and everyday costs.
The cost-of-living tool prices a month in 15 cities for the household you describe: one adult, a couple, a family with one or two children, or a single parent. Costs scale to the household, so a family is not shown a single person’s budget.
The month is split into the lines that actually move a budget: housing, groceries, utilities, transport, healthcare, childcare and school, and everyday spending. Place two cities side by side to see where the difference comes from, then set the total against your take-home pay to see what is left.
What you can do
- Choose a city and a household type and see a full month of costs, scaled to the people in it.
- See housing, groceries, utilities, transport, healthcare, childcare and school, and everyday spending as separate lines, not one total.
- Compare two cities side by side and see the difference in every category.
- Set a month’s costs against modeled take-home pay to see the margin that remains, or the shortfall.
- See the city’s costs in its own currency, with the exchange-rate basis stated.
- See take-home pay, living costs and what is left over drawn as a ledger of dots, so the balance is clear at a glance.
How it works
- Describe the householdAdult, couple, family or single parent. Costs follow the people in the home.
- Pick a cityChoose from 15 cities across the eight destinations.
- Read the monthEach category is a line you can read, question and compare.
- Set it against payPut the monthly total next to take-home to see what is left to save or spend.
Who it suits
Best for families and couples, and for anyone whose decision depends on whether a salary stretches in a particular city.
Good to know
City costs are illustrative monthly values, rounded and scaled to your household. They are marked as demonstration data.
One scenario across every tool
Set your destination, salary and household once. Every tool follows.
Research falls apart when you re-enter the same facts in six different places.
Your scenario is the small set of facts everything else depends on: where you are looking, what you would earn and who is in your household. You set it once, and the jobs explorer, the pay calculator and the cost-of-living tool all read from it.
It lives in your browser tab and nowhere else. It is not sent to us, it needs no account, and it is gone when you close the tab. That makes it safe for quick, private what-if questions.
What you can do
- Change the destination in one tool and see the others update to match.
- Keep your salary and household as you move between jobs, pay and costs, without re-entering anything.
- Get destination recommendations based on your scenario, with the figures behind each one shown, so you can see why a place was suggested.
- Test “what if” questions quickly, such as the same salary in a different country or the same city with a bigger household.
- Start fresh at any time by closing the tab, with nothing left behind.
How it works
- Set it onceChoose a destination, a gross salary and a household in whichever tool you open first.
- Move freelyOpen another tool and your scenario is already there.
- Change one thingAdjust a single input and see how the whole picture shifts.
Who it suits
Best for early exploration, when you are testing ideas and do not want to fill in forms or sign up to do it.
Good to know
Your scenario stays in your browser tab. It is never sent to us, and it is cleared when you close the tab.
Your account
One private place for your move profile and the documents that go with it.
A move comes with a long list of details and papers. Keeping them together, under your control, saves you re-entering and searching.
A free account gives you a private home for your move. You describe your plans in your own words, add your work and education background, and store the documents that go with a move, such as PDFs, scans, images and spreadsheets.
There is no password. You sign in with a one-time code sent to your email, or with Google. Everything beyond your name and email is optional, and we never ask for the name of a child or any other family member. You can download a copy of your data or sign out of every device whenever you like.
What you can do
- Describe your plans: what you want to do, when, where you are considering and who would come with you, plus the details that shape your numbers, such as the industry a partner works in or a child’s age. We never ask for anyone’s name.
- Add your work and education background, so what you see fits your situation.
- Store PDFs, images, Word and Excel files privately, up to 1 GB, and download them whenever you need them.
- Choose your language, time zone, currency and units, and whether you want product updates.
- Add a profile photo, which anyone with its link can see, so you decide whether to use one.
- Download a copy of your data, or sign out of every signed-in device in one step.
How it works
- Create the accountEnter your name and email, then type the code we send you. Or continue with Google.
- Build your profileAdd as much or as little as you want. A progress guide shows what is left.
- Add your documentsUpload the papers you will need, and open them from any device.
- Stay in controlExport your data, remove files, or ask us to close the account at any time.
Who it suits
Best for anyone who is serious about a move and wants their details and documents in one private place.
Good to know
Documents are private to your account. Please do not store anything you would not want held in an online service, and keep your own copies of original documents.
Household life planner
Plan a move for everyone in the household, not only whoever has the job offer.
Families do not move for a salary. They move for schools, healthcare, community and a workable budget.
The household life planner turns a scenario into a plan. It treats the household as the unit of decision: each person has their own career, education, healthcare and relocation needs, and the plan has to work for all of them at once.
It brings the pieces together in one place: income and tax from the pay tools, living costs from the cost-of-living tool, and the milestones and paperwork that make up a move, arranged on a timeline with the dependencies between them visible.
What you can do
- Build a household profile with each person’s career, education, healthcare and relocation needs, using details such as a partner’s industry or a child’s age, and never anyone’s name.
- Weigh education options, healthcare systems, neighborhoods, transport and community for the places you are considering.
- Organize immigration milestones, document checklists and a moving timeline, with what depends on what made visible.
- Combine income, taxes, living costs, relocation costs and savings goals into a single financial picture for the household.
- See the risks that are still open, such as a missing document, an unresolved visa question or a budget that does not close.
- Compare two plans for two destinations, side by side, using the same household.
How it works
- Describe the householdWho is moving, and what each person needs from the move.
- Choose where to lookBring in the destinations and cities you are considering.
- Build the pictureIncome, tax, costs and one-off moving expenses come together into a monthly and a first-year view.
- Plan the stepsTurn it into a timeline, a checklist and a list of open questions.
Who it suits
Best for couples and families, and for anyone whose move involves more than one person’s job, schooling or healthcare.
Good to know
The planner organizes and connects information. It is not legal, tax, immigration or financial advice, and it does not decide eligibility for you.
Salary intelligence
Know what your role is worth, and where that figure comes from.
Pay figures mix official statistics, advertised ranges and self-reported numbers. They should never be blended silently.
Salary intelligence answers a simple question that rarely has a simple answer: what is this role worth? It compares pay for the same role across countries, cities, employers and experience levels, so you can see how much geography and seniority change the figure.
Its main rule is that it never blends sources quietly. Official wage statistics, advertised ranges and employee-reported pay are shown as separate things, each with the source label used across the rest of the site, so you always know what kind of number you are looking at.
What you can do
- Compare pay for a role across countries, cities, employers and experience levels, in one view.
- See official wage statistics, advertised ranges and employee-reported pay as separate series, never averaged together.
- Look at base pay, bonus, equity and total compensation where the underlying data exists.
- Read each figure with its source and the date it applies to, using the same labels you see on every other page.
- Turn any pay figure into take-home pay and living-cost impact with one click.
- Check whether an offer sits below, within or above the range for that role and level.
How it works
- Choose a role and levelStart from the job title and how senior it is.
- See the sources side by sideOfficial, advertised and reported figures are shown separately, with dates.
- Place your offerSee where a salary sits against each source and each location.
- Follow it throughSend the figure to the pay and cost-of-living tools to see what it is worth in practice.
Who it suits
Best for people negotiating an offer, and for anyone deciding whether a move improves their earning power.
Good to know
Pay data varies by employer, skills and negotiation. Treat ranges as a guide for comparison, not a promise of what you will be offered.
AI mobility guide
Describe your situation in your own words and get pointed to the right questions.
Most people do not know what to ask first. A guide that connects the tools saves weeks of searching.
The AI mobility guide is a conversational way into everything else. You describe who is moving, where you are thinking of going and what matters most, in your own words, and it helps you turn that into a structured set of questions and next steps.
It is built to guide and explain, and to hand off to the calculators so that comparisons use your real numbers. It is deliberately careful: it does not invent legal eligibility, precise financial results or local facts that it cannot source, and it tells you when a question needs a qualified professional.
What you can do
- Say who is moving, where you are considering and what matters most, and get a structured way to explore it.
- Spot considerations you have not looked at yet, such as schooling, healthcare, dependants or timing.
- Hand your answers to the calculators, so comparisons use your actual salary, household and destination.
- Ask for plain-language explanations of terms, such as marginal tax rate, social contributions or sponsorship.
- Get pointed to the right page, tool or guide on this site for the question you are asking.
- Be told clearly when something needs a qualified professional, rather than getting a confident guess.
How it works
- Tell it your situationWrite it the way you would explain it to a friend. No forms.
- Answer a few questionsIt asks about the things that change the answer, such as household, income and timing.
- See what it foundYou get the considerations that matter, with links to the tools that quantify them.
- Take it from thereOpen the calculators with your details already filled in, or move on to a professional.
Who it suits
Best for people at the very beginning, who know they want to move but are not sure what to ask or where to start.
Good to know
The guide is general information, not legal, tax, immigration or financial advice, and answers can be incomplete. Check anything important with an authorized professional.
Professional support
Human help for the parts of a move software should not decide for you.
Immigration, tax and financial advice are regulated. Real people with the right authorization should handle them.
Some parts of a move should not be decided by software: whether you qualify for a visa, how a cross-border income is taxed, how to structure savings. These are regulated areas where the answer depends on your whole situation, and where a mistake is expensive.
ShresthaGlobal’s professional support starts in the United States. We help you get organized with general information, checklists and plain-language explanations, and we connect you to authorized professionals when your situation calls for legal, tax or financial advice. We do not give personalized legal determinations ourselves.
What you can do
- Get organized with general information, document checklists and plain-language explanations of how a process works.
- Be referred to authorized professionals, such as immigration attorneys, tax advisers and financial planners, when your situation needs them.
- Arrive at a professional’s office prepared, with your scenario, your numbers and your questions already written down.
- Ask us how a tool works, what a figure means or where a number comes from.
- Talk to us about support for employers, relocation teams and universities who are moving people.
How it works
- Tell us what you needWrite to us with your destination, your situation and the question you are stuck on.
- We point you the right wayWe answer what we can, and say plainly what needs a regulated professional.
- Be introducedWhere it fits, we refer you to an authorized professional in the right field.
Who it suits
Best for anyone whose move involves a visa, a cross-border tax question or a financial decision that is too important to leave to a calculator.
Good to know
Support starts in the United States. The other seven destinations have full guides and tools. We do not give personalized legal, tax or financial advice.
