  1. CCP Sophie Froment VP of Human Resources EURAXESS ICELAND – May 27th

  2. CCP • CCP has been pioneering new frontiers in gaming since it was founded in 1997. Our games push the boundaries of entertainment, bringing people together in experiences of a scope that can only be described with one word: massive. • Since 2003, the company has grown from a single studio in Iceland to 4 offices across 3 continents. We have consistently delivered an unforgettable, immersive experience to our players. We believe in our work and are part of a company that make no compromises. • Our value of Unity, Transparency, fearlessness and excellence reflect our work ethic and our commitment to what we do.

  3. What is challenging? • Hard for foreigners to have admin (work permit, kennitala) done via phone, emails they need to go to the different institutions to get problems solved • The immigration process for people coming outside of EU is really complex and long • Preschool placement is only open March to May, really hard for families when they arrived during the summer or fall – here again you have to do everything in person and everything is in Icelandic so it is almost impossible for foreigners to it themselves • Housing rental market is really difficult for families, very few offers • Currency export control is really causing issues , foreigners do not understand why they can’t do what they want with their earned money (and even more if they still have liabilities in other countries) • Very social network culture, hard to meet people outside of work, hard to find baby sitters

  4. What works very well • For EU people, the immigration process is quite simple • Opening a bank account is very easy • Health care system is fantastic • People are very friendly and helpful • Beautiful country

  5. Suggestions • Encourage the development of relocation agencies • Have one centralized website with all info available at least in English and possibly in other languages • Support spouses to find jobs • Create an association for foreigners, where they could meet and exchange experience, ideas…
