Is this a full-time role, and what type of contract does FFS Officine (Ferrovie Federali) offer?

This listing is a full-time position.

The Swiss employer files the request with Canton Bern's migration office after the contract is signed. Processing times vary by canton, so confirm the specifics with Bern's cantonal migration office or with HR during the application.
