    Questions about long-term migration including study and work belong on [expatriates.se]. FWIW, you can study in Switzerland and search for work wherever you like, but when you find work you'll still need to apply for an appropriate visa or work permit from your chosen country, whether or not it's part of the EU –  Jul 08 '20 at 00:49
  • @Arthur'sPass, I believe this question is about short-term travel within Schengen while on a long-term visa in Switzerland. – o.m. Jul 08 '20 at 04:10
  • Thanks for answering.Justa confirmation,If we get selected in other EU countries,we still need to apply for work visa for that particular countries right??? – Srinaath Jul 08 '20 at 07:10
  • @Srinaath, yes, you will need a new long-term visa for exactly that country. Depending on the job and pay, you may qualify for a Blue Card. But that is better asked on Expatriates SE. – o.m. Jul 08 '20 at 16:09

Under normal conditions, a long-term national visa from one Schengen state allows you to visit the other Schengen states as if you had a multiple-entry Schengen visa with the same duration. The 90/180 rule applies to the other Schengen states.

Looking for jobs and having interviews are permitted activities in the other states. Actually working is not.

Right now there are potential disruptions because of the COVID pandemic. Restrictions which are being lifted may be reintroduced if there are breakouts.
