Hi I have just moved to Poland about 10 months ago and I am trying to find a job in Bielsko-Biala. I cannot speak polish. I tried a job as a teacher (native speaker of english) and found it very scary- stood infront of a class of teenagers. I have more administration experience and would prefer employment in a company. I was quite interested in what one person suggested which was proof-reading. How do I find out more
Just wandered about your circumstances. Did you initially go to Poland 10 months ago to teach english? Why Bielsko-Biala? I am thinking along the same lines as you, try and find a company rather than the teaching route.
I am an Office Manager in the UK with a lot of family in Poland too, I thought about the teaching route, but like you I am looking to just find a company to work for, but its not easy. Do you find being in Poland itself makes it easier to find opportunities?
No not really. I did come with my parent but unfortunately they died within the past year so I am trying to start a new life. I usually look on the internet for ideas
yea i use the internet too. I am earning below average industrial wage in ireland and live with parents at the moment (i am 24) I am nearly finished my degree in Business and half way with my proffessional Accountancy (ACCA accaglobal.com for interested parties)
I just really want to raise a family with my girlfriend, living in a beautiful place (not meaning big house, but a lovely part of the world)
To keep myself busy - I have a new house - which requires quite a bit of work but I also keep an eye out for any jobs that may arise - I want to go out to work
I work in the communications field and have for 30 years. I work on all kinds of daxes and have experience in satalite as well. I currently work with a large company in the united states but want to move to Poland. My wife is from there and she is a nurse.
Does any one know if we would be alble to get a job in those fields????

how is the export and import or cargo business in poland? right now im working for an Air line representative company ( cargo related). and we are thinking of opening a branch in poland.
Hi Adam, I understand your dilemma. I myself am half Polish half British and often can't make up my mind where I want to be. Re. looking for a job - would you be interested in a relatively well paid job with an international corporation, doing technical writing - basically writing manuals for users of specific computer applications. We are looking for:
- native English speakers (or close to native level) - computer-literate or a bit more than just literate, knowledge of networking concepts an asset, - willing to re-locate to or near Gdansk area - some knowledge of Polish a definite asset but not a must. If you are interested, I will send you more details. Definite advantages of this job would be that work practices and the general atmosphere are that of a Western company.
Is it possible to get more information on the job opportunity you described? I have family in Gdynia, and want to move my family to the Gdynia or Gdansk area. I'm from the US, and I speak Polish. There wasn't any contact info for you on the Compuware website.
czesc wojtek, i am from England but my wife is from Gdansk and we both want to move to Gdansk with our 3 year old daughter, we have all our Polish family living there.
I dont speak much Polish but am learning, i can speak broken Polish. I would like to recieve information regarding the job vacancy please, my E-mail adress is belab@tiscali.co.uk
Please reply to me, thank you very much. P.S if you have any other vacancies for a english speaking person then could you please contact me, i will be visiting Gdansk again this summer in July.

Czesc Wojtek thank you very much for your reply, yes that would be great if you could send to me some information about a new future. My little polish girlfriend ( soon to be wife ) is itching to get back to her way of life and it reminds me just how different 3000 miles can make between east and west, i myself love poland and if i could invent a earpiece that would act as instant translator then all
my troubles would be solved, though i think sometimes my girlfriend wouldnt speak so much in her native tounge if she knew that i could understand what she was saying to
her girlfrinds who are mostly laughing whilst looking at me!!! my email address is- sanremo@f2s.com look forward to hear from you. pozdrawiam. Adam

hi there, im an australian currently in poland. did u have to marry a pole to live and work here? ive only read on the net that aussies can stay on visiting visa. any info on staying here would help.
In England we have 600,000 Polish loking for work as there is nothing in Poland. If you are looking for work in Poland besides from teaching English I would imagine that there would be almost no openings unless you have some very special skill such as a famous footballer or an excellent chef but even then as a a teacher of English you willl need to be able to translate grammar and meaning so you will be a useless teacher without a knowledge of Polish. the Polish are very practicle and do almost all jobs themselves from mending shoes to building houses so your skill will need to be something really special. i think that on the whole we are a little spoilt in the West and are used to relying on other people-that is why we have plumbers who come to our homes and charge £80 call out fee to change a washer on a tap! No such chance of this in Poland.

How true! The same in the US. Plumbers and electricians have one of the better paying jobs. So one would not do good in Poland. So the only job in the whole world for an American in Poland is teaching english. :)
Job scene in Poland far as I can see here is ... Lot of big firms meanly international big names all coming here so English speaker do and can get job on then ,even if you dont know polish working language in these big firms is english . thing is the wages will be lower then in places like London ... so if you want to come and dont really want teach there are other stuff to do dont give up the fight .
Best of all would be if you have a professional job such as a civil engineer or an accountant and you may be able to work in Poland for an international company with an interest in that area of the world. English Language teaching is all right for a while if you are young but it is not a career path for a family man.
I think the great thing about Europe, especially for contractors, is the possibility to be based in one country and to be able to work throught the Union. So live in Poland with cheaper living cost and earn abroad. love it.
