That would depend wheather or not you are hired given a monthly salary. Most FIs are not, and that means you have to do alot of instructing to get a decent salary. This way, you will also be dependant on the weather. Bad weather, no flying, no money. The best would be if you could combine FI-ing with ground school. Or if you are an IR-instructor, that would work too.
As for Swedish companies hiring, there are a few that are hiring occasionally, but nothing major and the common nominator is that almost everyone that is hired has either already got the type rating or are paying for it upon employment. But next year, when the rumours say that SAS are looking for 300 pilots, it's going to be real good.
So get your FI-job ober here, learn Swedish real quick, and you'll be in the game in about a year

Good luck
