| Care to explain how to get a work permit without a visa with permission to work? You know, the kind of visa which is not issued at the border and which can only be issued in the country which the applicant is legally resident in. If you know the law better than immigration lawyers do share it with us |
I came to Poland, got hired by Bell and then went back home to process the paperwork over the Winter break.
I could go on, but it's a nice day in Shanghai.
So I'll leave you with a question. What advice would you give someone who want to find work in Poland. Would you advise someone to take a job over the net? Because I would never take a job at a school without seeing the school, meeting the director and seeing the location. |

Shulgin you have valid points but relax anyway. I know of reputable schools that hire qualified non EU teachers. The teachers are hired and begin working while their official paperwork is being processed. Technically, these teachers are working illegally but from what I understand, Polish officials will overlook the teachers non-legal status as long as the paperwork is being processed.
It is possible for a teacher to get all the necessary paperwork without returning to the teacher's country of origin. I personally know of an American friend of mine that sent all his documents to his father who then re-packaged the documents and forwarded them to the Polish Consulate in the US. I also have an email from the Polish Consulate in the US stating that an American teacher can have his papers processed by mail. It is not necessary for the teacher to return to the US.
I am a believer in abiding by the law but getting stuck in the mud as a result of trying to obey the absolute letter of the law...well I'm not so sure I'm a believer in that.

And at the expense of getting too personal, who's 'us'? You're certainly not claiming to speak for the entire Polish forum are you?
The problem with these internet forums is that it can often become unproductive. I've seen plenty of threads where people just sling mud at each other. Like two flatmates that aren't talking to each other but just leave little nasty notes back and forth. Of course I'm above that sort of juvenile behavior  |

Is that what it has come to in North America ? |
Yes. Now, onto other matters. I applied for and was accepted into a joint Polish-U.S. M.Ed. program run by Framingham State College and Translator Language Centre in Katowice. They advertised on the job board here. Does anyone have experience with the program or Translator? |
