White South Africa seeking work advice about in Poland

Good morning everyone

I am currently located in South Africa. I was born in South Africa and I am white.

As a white South Africa things is not the best and after visiting Poland earlier this year I fell inlove with the values that Poland has.

So my questios is I am looking for a job as a QA. How will I be able to try and get my head into the Polish job market? Because if all goes well I want to cut all ties with South Africa and build a safe life in Poland.

I would appreciate any advice.

Thank you in advance.

You will need a work permit - will not be at all straightforward as a company will need to sponsor you. But not impossible if there is a demand for QAs (I don't know what that is - Quality Assessor ?

If you want to cut all ties with SA and get citizenship you will need to pass a Polish language exam and live here for a qualifying period which is being debated at present.

No extra points for being white I'm afraid - you would be treated the same as any other RSA citizen - black, colored, Indian, Jewish, Portuguese or whatever.

Just be careful you understand what you are signing
