Is it possible to get a part-time job in Sweden as a college student who hasn't learned Swedish?
I am applying for a semester at Vaxjo next Spring. I am from the U.S. (fluent in English) but don't know any Swedish right now. Firstly, is it possible/legal for me to get a job as a student intending only to stay for a semester? Secondly, would I realistically be able to get a job, even if it were something simple in the school? Thanks for your help.

It depends on what sort of student you'll be, you should check with Migrationsverket when you apply for a study permit as to whether it also allows you to work. I believe that you will be granted a work permit as well, but some exchange programs are under different rules. http://migrationsverket.se/english/estudier/index.html As for realistically getting a job, it's very unlikely. I lived in Sweden for two years before I found work, even though I was fairly fluent in Swedish in less than a year and applied for every job I came across. With no Swedish you'll find it very difficult. English isn't really considered a job skill, since Swedes tend to speak excellent English. There will also be many other students and immigrants in your position, vying for the same few jobs as you. Unless you have some specialized skills that make you stand out, you shouldn't count on finding work. If you do happen to find something, consider yourself lucky.

I think you would have to get a Swedish visa for Sweden - if you only have a German Visa. It actually looks like it should be possible with a Schengen Visa, but check with the embassy first. Ask the Swedish Embassy.
2 :
If you have a German Visa, you should be allowed to travel there without another visa for a holiday. But I just can say what the other one did. Ask the swedish embassy in germany.
3 :
When you check para 3. of the key points of the Schengen Acquis you can read: "Third-country nationals with a residence permit valid in one fully implementing country may travel on a valid passport, without requiring a visa, for up to 90 days per six-month period to any other fully implementing country; they are also not subject to border checks at the Schengen area's internal borders." http://www.auswaertiges-amt.de/diplo/en/WillkommeninD/EinreiseUndAufenthalt/Schengen.html#t2 .. Your German Student Visa [Residence Permit/Aufenthaltstitel] in your Ecuadorian passport authorizes you for tourist travel to all other Schengen countries to include Sweden.
