Finding a job in Poland is a long process that requires focus and clarity on what you want to achieve. To do this, you need to understand exactly what vacancy you are looking for, what advantages you have over other applicants. To find a job in Poland, use several methods at once.
Necessary
- - CV in Polish and English;
- - friend-translator;
- - the Internet;
- - a phone with a Polish SIM card;
- - newspapers of vacancies.
Instructions
Step 1
Prepare a resume in Polish and English. Ask a Polish translator or friend to check the text for grammatical and spelling errors. In your resume, describe in detail your previous work experience, the vacancy you are applying for, what you can do. Information about past employers with contact information is also encouraged. Make your business card website by posting a resume in two versions.
Step 2
Look for job offers on the Internet. Of course, Polish sites need to be monitored. Links to them can be found at https://www.wp.pl in the “Praca” section. On the pages with a job offer, place your ad about the search for a specific vacancy, publish a link to your resume on the Internet. If you want to work in a specific company in a specific position (corresponding to your specialization), find the organization's website and send them your resume by mail.
Step 3
The chances of getting a job while in Poland are much higher. Check ads in local newspapers. Pay special attention to the section where urgent vacancies are posted. This means that the employee is required "this minute", which means that you have the opportunity to be at the right time in the right place. Be prepared for the fact that you will have to call companies on your own, therefore, you need to know Polish at a good conversational level.
Step 4
Post your resume to the companies you are interested in on your own. This method is designed for the long term: it is not known how long it will take to wait for a call from the employer. But if you are interested in unskilled labor (for example, cleaning in cafes or maids in hotels), then the invitation for an interview may come the next day.
Step 5
Formally, there is unemployment in Poland, so carefully read the summaries of specialists required in the country. Usually, local citizens with higher education do not tend to go to not very prestigious jobs (waiters, service employees). This niche is not so filled and provides employment opportunities for foreign citizens.
