Before you apply: the work permit in one paragraph

Most employers in Poland get a work permit for you, and then you apply for a national visa. The EU Blue Card needs at least 150% of the previous year's average wage (Blue Card threshold explained).

How to use these sites well

  1. Use the IT boards if you are in tech. Salary ranges help you compare offers and permit thresholds.
  2. Target Kraków, Warsaw and Wrocław. Most English speaking jobs are there.
  3. Ask who handles the work permit. In Poland the employer usually applies first.
  4. Compare the salary with the cost of living. Salaries are lower than in Western Europe, but so are costs.
  5. Apply on company career pages too. Large shared service centres recruit through their own systems.

For other countries, see local job portals in Europe, and read why applications get rejected before you send the next one.
