In Switzerland, the average salaries in many professions are higher than in other countries. For example, a kindergarten teacher earns 3900 francs in Switzerland and about 2400 francs in the USA. A salesman earns about 4400 francs. A trained bricklayer whose work experience is over four years earns – 5,500 francs per month. In many other countries, you can get little more than the minimum wage on these jobs. However, you should take into consideration that Switzerland is an expensive country and taxes are high there.
