Work / Questions regarding living&working in Gdansk [5]

I see...I was thinking the same too, but I guess that everyone is different.
Indeed, but there is no problem with that. At the end of the day I am the foreigner.

Thank you very much for your information.

Work / Questions regarding living&working in Gdansk [5]

Thank you for your answer.

They proposed a gross of 4500 PLN. Using a polish calculator that means that I would earn 3200 zloty.
I have thought that too, that the rent is a little high, a little more. The thing is that I do not want something bigger than a kawalerka and I want to stay alone.

Now, I have looked up the prices..but I need some extra info.

1) How are Polish in general with foreigners?
2) How would you appreciate that it"s the average for food money? ( I have read about it, some claim that they spend 1000 zloty, others that they can survive with

300 zloty per month )

I would have to relocate. Of course, the salary is not extraordinary, but I have zero experience...

Work / Questions regarding living&working in Gdansk [5]

Hello,

I am a postgraduated that has applied to a job in Gdansk. The job is similar to what a callcenter ( answering mails/calls in the fashion industry ) does and it`s located in Gdansk - the only thing is that it requires my mother tongue that is different from Polish. The field that I have studied has nothing to do with it, but I need a job. I also come form an eastern european country and I have the following questions:

1) How much should I ask ( they`ve asked me how much do I want to gain ) as a net salary considering the job that I`ve applied to?

2) How much should I earn in order to live a decent life?
- I am single&vegan
- By decent I mean to earn&live on my own without the need to call my parents and send me money
- I`ve looked up and saw that a normal flat ( 1bedroom/ studio) is around 1500-1800 pln. Is that accurate enough?

3) How`s life in general in Gdansk? Is it a huge problem that I am not familiar with the Polish language?

Thank you very much
