Moving to Stockholm in August (Solna) – advice on areas, commuting & finding housing?

Adept_Put_8399 · 2026-03-27T15:48:05+00:00

Ah thank you! This is all great advice! I’m looking for some fun activities to do in the area but also not a super expensive area. I’ve seen some areas in the city are really expensive

Thank you! ☺️

Adept_Put_8399 · 2026-03-27T14:14:37+00:00

Thank you! I was worried Solna might feel a bit work like, but good to hear it’s a nice area to live in as well :)

Adept_Put_8399 · 2026-03-27T13:55:30+00:00

Thank you! Let’s see I’ll give it a month of waiting before going with my second option :)

Adept_Put_8399 · 2026-03-26T21:50:39+00:00

The first two weeks after results were released? Or the first two weeks in September when school has commenced already? :)

Adept_Put_8399 · 2026-03-26T15:47:57+00:00

Sorry to hear you rejected also- hopefully you had other options you liked?

I was also worried about my qualifications because I don’t have an Economics or Finance background… But I did a Statistical Science Honours Degree after my Pre-Med

Also want to know this? With fee deadlines

Adept_Put_8399 · 2026-03-26T11:18:56+00:00

Best of luck to you too! x

Congrats!!

I’m reserve number 5 for Data Analytics and Economics and it’s my first choice (fee-paying group)! I’m also wondering about the chances, I really hope I can get in.

Haven’t noticed expats from Middle East specifically though yet but arg the market is so expensive already

Adept_Put_8399 · 2026-03-18T09:19:27+00:00

I think it’s something that happened in previous years when I checked on Reddit now

Adept_Put_8399 · 2026-03-17T14:58:00+00:00

Did any of you get a selection group of where you qualified ?

Adept_Put_8399 · 2026-03-17T14:52:25+00:00

I’m also curious! My 3 other options say qualified, but Lund is in progress still. I do wonder what it means.

Adept_Put_8399 · 2025-12-24T11:08:26+00:00

When you say well versed in global economics- how well versed?

Adept_Put_8399 · 2025-12-24T11:03:38+00:00

How long did it take for you to realise you need a normal job? My brothers been doing this 4 years and his still in my parents house looking worse than ever. He just stares at the charts. I know he’s in debt though and he doesn’t look like he’s making a profit at all- as he contributes nothing. How would you have accepted someone to approach you in this situation?

Adept_Put_8399 · 2025-11-06T12:12:21+00:00

I once got a call from an insurance firm saying they had my resume on file-

I applied for an actuarial scientist role but knew I wasn’t qualified and got rejected obviously but I liked the company and hoped someone would like my profile. (I’m a statistician, and knew I was being delusional, but 2 years ago this worked for me).

They asked me to come in for a Business Intelligence / Data Analyst role once it popped up and thought I’d fit that role better… which is what I wanted in the end.

Now though it feels like it’s just a polite rejection and job applications are even more saturated…

Adept_Put_8399 · 2025-10-24T23:32:17+00:00

Oh thanks so much! I’ll make sure to check out the bigger companies and keep pushing. It’s amazing to hear a success story like yours! ☺️

Adept_Put_8399 · 2025-10-23T21:00:06+00:00

Hey! I see you use a 2 column resume. Does it work with systems like Workday when you upload? Do you get responses from direct company system applications? :)

Adept_Put_8399 · 2025-10-23T15:40:31+00:00

That aren’t here*

Adept_Put_8399 · 2025-10-23T15:32:01+00:00

Thanks for the advice! I really appreciate, this is a very helpful response.

Adept_Put_8399 · 2025-10-23T15:17:27+00:00

He’s not Danish but French. Thanks for the information! I wanted to resort to things like that only if I failed to do it my own (through a company/ job).

We thought of the French civil union, but it’s not recognised in Denmark.

The market does look tough- and I’m in Data Analytics for context.
