Is this a full-time role, and what type of contract does Abbott offer?
This listing is a full-time position. The contract type shown here comes directly from the employer's original posting; always confirm exact hours, notice period and probation length with Abbott during the application process, since these details can vary by role even within the same contract category.
Do I need a cross-border work permit for a role in Zug?

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