 |
|
| Happy Monday! I have been reading past posts this weekend about working in Poland. I am interested in coming to work in Wroclaw or Warsaw, has anyone worked in both and can give a comparison on what is it like to live in each of them plus any advantages/disadvantages. I imagine Warsaw is more expensive but am interested more in terms of quality of life and things to do. I am not into clubbing so a party-scene isn't needed. Thank you in advance for any info. |

| Wroclaw has a lovely rynek and it's a student town. Not sure what the job market is like but it's a lovely place. Near Germany and a stone's throw from Karpacz and the Czech lands. I live in Poznan, a couple of hours to the north. I lived in Warsaw way back. Loads to do and you'll find enough work but a bit soulless. Capital cities and EFL budgets good friends do not make. |

| Thank you for that. Would taking home 6000 pln a month after tax in Warsaw be enough or would taking home 5000 pln in Wroclaw be better? |

Netting 5000PLN in Wroclaw? You better find some high paying private students.
There are lots of qualified (and experienced!!) Polish teachers now. There is a lot less need for Natives, compared with 10 years ago. |

Indeed. And meanwhile, you're not going to be all over the boards, telling people that you've 'seen this job advert' or 'been invited by this school for an interview' in 8 or 10 different countries?
Nor will you send time-wasting pms to well-intended posters asking detailed questions about a country and job you will never actually work in, then moving on to do the same to others?
This is already quite suspect as April is NOT job-hunting time in Poland or anywhere in the region. |

| I have a holiday at the end of April and am going over to Poland to visit the country with a friend. I plan on visiting the two cities to get a feel for the place. |
