It might not be what you want to hear and you will probably think that the job is beneath you, but a good cleaner is hard to find in Warsaw. I pay mine 80zl for about three to four hours' work (it depends on how many shirts I've got for her to iron, whether the windows need doing, how much fur the cats are losing, etc). That's more than double what you'd make working in a bar or restaurant and as it's all in cash, there's no need to worry about work permits (I assume that you will need work permits for any jobs you do and if you do need permits, you simply won't get the jobs because few employers will go through the hassle, especially for a part-time employee).

Thanks for your feedback.
I have permit for job, and studients visa for one year. I look for full time job. I am studing now in the Lazarski School of Commerce and Law in Warsaw, part time. My future specialization is International trade. I have not experience in this industry ( just in casino)and I know it's hard to find something now, crisis time. But I am ready start from something that will be associated with this industry.

Are you sure that you have a permit? As far as I know (which is from working as a foreigner in Poland for a decade and a half) work permits are specific to one particular job. Do you mean that you do not need to have a work permit because you are exempt from needing one (in the same way as EU citizens are in Poland)? I know that Americans who have a one-year visa which gives the right to work still need to have a work permit for each job they do but I have no knowledge of or experience with the requirements for Ukrainian students.

Yes it is a hard time to find work right now and it'll be harder for you if you're only here for a short time: companies will be hesitant about hiring you and training you if they know you're going to leave soon. If you've got experience working in a casino (and speak three of the four major languages heard in Polish casinos), why not see if they are hiring? I know that a lot of Polish casino workers left Poland to work in other EU countries.
