USA, Canada / Living in Poland - prospects for Alabama guy ... need some advice! [146]
I skipped through a bunch of this thread..
As an American working for a very large multi-national company, I will be moving to Poland in two years.
I am a recruiter and I know there are many companies willing to relocate you, however, there are usually language requirements. Mine will be Russian and English (though I know it seems odd they would want Russian and not Polish)so it might be worth checking sites like IBM and other large companies look for strictly English. There are some, very few, but some. If you have a 4 year degree, this is very helpful. The oil and gas industry is always looking for help, but most will not relocate you. But at least you could have something while there.
I also LOVED the idea of you opening a Southern style diner! I was in Russia and Estonia last summer and I will tell you that there is nothing in those countries that even vaguely reminded me of US southern food though a few tried. I'm with whoever suggested the diner - call it Sweet Home Alabama. :))
