Looking for Work in Poland
Looking for work in another country requires more than just the obvious CV translation. You will be confronted with issues
that probably didn't even cross your mind when you decided to go for an international career, but don't underestimate
the big impact they can have on the outcome of your adventure! Think for example about the different rules and
habits regarding immigration, job application procedures, the selection procedures and the management culture.
With a population of 38.6 million and a gross domestic
product of $230 billion, Poland accounts for over half of the
EU newcomers'population and 41% of their total GDP. Although
only 17 million are 'economically active' and unemployment of
17.4% (a decrease compared to previous years!), Poland does
offer opportunities. Foremost it is a perfect gateway to
Central and Eastern Europe, opening up new markets.
