Applying from another country? Start with the roles that can hire you.
Pathlift reads companies' career pages every hour, marks the postings whose text mentions visa or relocation support, prepares your application in the posting's language and keeps the master's deadlines abroad on the same board.
20 free applications a month. No card required.
The problem with searching for sponsorship
Most postings don't say whether they sponsor a visa. Lists of “sponsoring companies” tell you who sponsored in the past, not which open role fits you today. And by the time a role reaches a job board in another time zone, the first applicants are already in.
How Pathlift helps you apply abroad.
Say where you want to work
Pick a country, or several, and upload your CV. It stays in your browser.
Career pages are read every hour
New roles in that country arrive with the reason they fit your CV.
The visa signal is marked
Postings whose text offers visa sponsorship or relocation help are flagged; ones that say they don't are left out of that filter.
Your application is written for the role
In the posting's language, from what is already in your CV. You approve every change and press submit.
Master's deadlines sit alongside
If you're also considering a master's abroad, the programmes you follow and their deadlines are on the same board.
Built for applying across borders.
Speed across time zones
A role in Europe can go live while you sleep. Watching the company's own page puts it on your list first.
A signal, not a promise
The visa filter reads the posting's text. It is a signal; the employer decides. Read the posting before you apply.
A CV for each country
The Abroad plan prepares English and German CVs for the habits of the target country and the posting's language.
Master's portals, kept straight
uni-assist, universityadmissions.se, Studielink: each programme you follow gets its deadline and a document list.

Choosing a plan when you're applying abroad.
If you're applying to a handful of companies in one country, the free plan or Student is enough. If you're applying widely, or need CVs in English and German and the visa filter, Abroad is built for that.
The master's pack is separate, for a cycle of up to 8 programmes: document checks, statement-of-purpose drafts and scholarship matching.
Pay for applications. Not the tool.
Every plan is the whole product. Plans differ only by volume.
Frequently asked questions
Do you help with the visa process?
No. Visa and residence permit applications are a matter for the authorities and the employer; we don't give legal advice. We help you find the right role or programme and prepare your application.
How does the visa filter work?
It reads the posting's text for an offer of visa sponsorship or relocation help and leaves out postings that say they don't offer it. It's a signal, not a guarantee.
Which countries are covered?
Every country where the companies we read are hiring: 58 at the last count, with Germany, the Netherlands, the UK, Ireland and the US the largest.
Does it prepare German CVs too?
On the Abroad plan, German postings get a German CV and cover letter. Nothing that isn't in your CV is added.
