Hello! I recently graduated from Arizona State with a degree in Economics. I am interested in working in Warsaw, Poland in a vast array of fields. I studied abroad in Warsaw and I fell in love with the Polish culture and history. I am seeking a job in marketing, sales, analytics, and/or finance. While going to school fulltime, I worked and participated in numerous extracurricular activities. I am accountable and able to multitask extraordinarily well. I am enthusiastically studying both Russian and Polish; I hope to continue studying those languages and eventually become fluent. My teamwork mentality and drive in business would make me a valuable asset to any company. As an employee, I understand that the need for a trust-based relationship with both the business and company. I have a large skill set that would allow me to be a lucrative asset to a company. Please contact me about any job opportunities or suggestions.

I am determined to get a job and sponsorship in Poland... even if it is not the best paying job. I am fine with having a job just for experience.

I have looked through many of the online sites and I am finding it difficult to find an entry level job without having a good command of the Polish language.

I am willing to teach English -- if I go this route, I am willing to get a teaching certificate.

I was wondering if you all knew the job placement/sponsorship for native English speakers to teach?



Also if anyone knows anyone I can contact and submit my resume to them, it would be greatly appreciated.

yes, this is exactly the case, there are jobs for proffesional foreigners in Poland and much much less entry level jobs - Poles can easily fill these positions mostly - but I don't think it is a hopeless case (there are shale gas projecting works going on in Poland right now or supposed to commence soon - many big international names are involved (like BP, I think Texaco) - maybe it would be possible to find some secretary position with them (or perhaps some minor managerial) - I can't direct you to their recruitment though -

other positions may be in call centres or as helpdesk operatives but this is hardly a career that will make you soar (and it will not pay a lot I would presume)

knowledge of Polish would however be a great asset (and so would be working knowledge of Russian)

Your best bet is to teach English and keep your eyes open for other opportunities while doing that. If you teach business English to high level people, you'll fairly soon hear of openings.

However, to teach those people you will most certainly need a CELTA. No other certification is acceptable.

I have just read your post. We are international company based in Warsaw and maybe we will be need a new employee in the near future. You do not have to speak polish beacuse we use english in our office so it could be a good start and experience for you. If you are interested please give me your e-mail address. Once I received I will contact you.

Best regards
