It maps **4,000+ European startups** across **55 cities** and lets you filter by **hiring status**, industry, and funding stage for **free**. That flips the usual search: instead of waiting for ads, you build a target list of Austrian startups that are recruiting and approach them directly. Combine it with **DevJobs.at** for advertised tech roles in the Vienna startup scene and **LinkedIn**, where most Austrian startups post first. Startups are Austria's most **English-friendly employers**: many run English as the working language and sponsor [Red-White-Red Cards](/visa/work-visa) for international hires. Expect **equity or bonus components** on top of the Kollektivvertrag minimum, and check the startup's funding stage before joining: a recently funded scale-up hires faster than a pre-seed team.

Most agencies cluster in **Vienna**, with smaller scenes in Graz and Linz. Language is the deciding factor: marketing produces German-language output, so **C1-level German** is expected for most copy, PR, and brand roles. The exceptions are **performance marketing**, **SEO**, and marketing roles inside English-first startups, which you find fastest via **StartupMap** and LinkedIn. Salaries typically run **EUR 38,000 to 60,000** gross for mid-level marketing roles under the applicable Kollektivvertrag; senior and head-of positions go higher.

Banking roles at Erste Group, [Raiffeisen](https://www.raiffeisen.at), and BAWAG appear on karriere.at and the banks' own portals.

For a ranked comparison of the firms themselves, see our [management consulting guide](/jobs/management-consulting) and the accompanying [user-review research](/jobs/management-consulting-comparison). Read the full [finance and consulting jobs guide](/jobs/finance-jobs) for the ranked boards and application norms. ## Where Do You Find Graduate and Student Jobs in Austria? **Absolventen.at** is the dedicated board for students, graduates, and early-career professionals, covering **internships (Praktika)**, **trainee programmes**, and junior roles tied to the university system. **UNIPORT**, the career service of the University of Vienna, runs its own job portal and career fairs, and **unijobs.at** lists academic and administrative positions at Austrian universities. karriere.at's entry-level filter adds volume across all sectors. Trainee programmes at Austrian corporates usually start in **September and October**, with applications opening the preceding spring.

The EU-wide **EURES** network adds cross-border public listings. Vienna is one of the four major **UN headquarters** cities, hosting the **IAEA, UNIDO, CTBTO**, plus the **OSCE** and **OPEC**. These organizations recruit through their own portals, primarily [careers.un.org](https://careers.un.org) and each agency's vacancy page, and they hire in **English** with internationally competitive, often **tax-privileged salaries**. Competition is strong: international-organization hiring runs on rosters and can take **6 months or longer** from application to offer. Read the full [UN, NGO, and public sector jobs guide](/jobs/public-ngo-jobs) for the Vienna organizations and application routes. ## Where Do You Find Skilled Trades and Blue-Collar Jobs in Austria? **hokify** is the mobile-first Austrian platform for trades, retail, logistics, and operational roles: applications run from the phone and most listings need **no cover letter**. The free **AMS eJob-Room** carries the largest public database of blue-collar roles, and **willhaben Jobs** surfaces local SME positions that never reach the big boards. Electricians, welders, roofers, and several other trades sit on the **Mangelberufsliste**, which opens the [Red-White-Red Card](/visa/work-visa) route for qualified non-EU workers.
