Work / Finding work as a junior programmer in Warsaw [19]

I agree that the starting salary is quite low, but I was expecting it to pick up in 2-3 years. I am from Malta.

I'm not moving to Poland to become rich, I'm moving as I like the country and the culture. Salary for entry level programmers in my country is around 1300 eur, but cost of life is almost double of that in Poland. I do not wish to continue living in my country, and having been to Poland for a year and got to learn the culture and also have a good start on the language, I think that Poland is the most logical choice. I believe that with time and experience I will be able to earn a decent salary in Poland and live quite well off (correct me if I'm wrong).

I have done quite large projects in Java, such as an Android navigation program and also a fully functioning search engine. I am doing my thesis (sandbox for testing out installations) in C and C++, but I personally prefer Java, it is more flexible and understandable :D I feel very comfortable using the language however I have never used Java in a commercial software house.

Merged: Programmer salary in Warsaw

Hi guys!

I was in Warsaw 3 years ago on Erasmus with my friend and we are planning to return to live there as soon as we finish our studies as we fell in love with the country!! I will be graduating in a degree in Computer Science this year and I have started to apply for programmer jobs (mainly Java) in Warsaw, Poland.

I am currently discussing a job offer with a company based in Warsaw, and have been asked how much I expect to be paid. I need some help as I do not want to propose a too low salary and get paid at a minimum rate or worse propose a high salary and get passed over. From internet forums I got a very mixed idea, as some forums where quoting as low as 1500zl netto and others up to 5000zl brutto.

Thank you for your help!
