What is the job situation like in Poland? I am thinking of moving to find work

12 Jun 2014 #1

From what iv been hearing a lot of people are leaving Poland, for jobs in other countries such as France or England. Is this really true? I want to move to Poland, I'm thinking Katowice or Krakow will there be any jobs? I'm thinking to either continue studying for social work or teaching english

I guess that doctors get their money mostly in bribes, that's why they're not included.

Lovely! I love peanuts. But only salted. I heard that salt is very cheap in Poland coz they have Wieliczka Salt Mine.

I couldn't agree more...... moving to Poland for work is not a sensible option..... especially when most Poles are going the other way.....
