The 'Fika' Introduction: When you start a 'nytt jobb' in Sweden, your first day will almost certainly involve a 'fika' where you are introduced to the team. It is considered rude to skip this. Flat Hierarchy: In your 'nytt jobb', you will likely call your boss by their first name. The 'Du-reformen' of the 1960s removed formal titles in the workplace. Work-Life Balance: Swedes rarely stay late at a 'nytt jobb' to impress the boss. Leaving at 4:00 PM or 5:00 PM is standard and respected. Probationary Period: Almost every 'nytt jobb' starts as a 'provanställning' for 6 months before becoming permanent.
