If you’re planning to work in Poland for the first time, it’s important to understand the full process — from the first contact to starting the job. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you.
Step 1. Fill out an application
The easiest way is through an online form or by messaging the recruiter directly. Provide your name, phone number, city, Polish level, and preferred job.
Step 2. Wait for a call
A recruiter or coordinator will contact you. They’ll ask clarifying questions, offer suitable jobs, and explain what happens next.
Step 3. Prepare your documents
Usually, you’ll need:
international passport
photo
past work experience (if any)
readiness to travel
In some cases, a work invitation is arranged, and additional info will be required.
Step 4. Sign the contract
Before departure, you’ll receive and sign a contract (or review the conditions). It outlines salary, housing, work duties, and other terms.
Step 5. Depart for Poland
After confirmation, the agency may arrange a transfer or provide instructions on how to get there. Logistics help is often provided, especially for group departures.
Step 6. Register locally
Upon arrival, you’ll need to register in Poland, get your PESEL, ZUS, and any necessary documents. A coordinator will help you with this and support your adaptation.
Conclusion
Applying for work in Poland is easy when done step by step. Stay in touch with your coordinator, prepare your documents, and don’t be afraid to ask questions. Good luck!
