What to Bring to Work in Poland — Tips from Gremi personal Recruiters

Moving abroad for work often comes with questions: what to pack, how to organize the journey, where to live, and who will help if difficulties arise. Recruiters at Gremi personal, who place workers in Poland and other European countries, can assure you: packing your suitcase can be stress-free — they take care of the rest.

Specialists accompany the candidate from the moment of departure through to settling into comfortable accommodation. Throughout the entire employment period, a coordinator remains available to help with adaptation and resolve all organizational matters.

To make preparation as simple as possible, Gremi personal recruiters have put together a handy checklist of the most essential items.

What to Bring?

Season-appropriate clothing. The weather in Poland is similar to Ukraine's, so basic everyday clothes are sufficient. Work uniforms are usually provided by the employer — there is no need to pack a special outfit.

Comfortable footwear. Especially important if the job involves physical activity. Comfortable shoes are not a luxury but your comfort throughout the entire working day.

Documents. Passport, work permit (if you already have one), and medical certificates if required. Recruiters will help with obtaining any other documents.

Personal medications. Bring whatever you take on a regular basis.

Cash for the first few days. A small amount for everyday needs and initial purchases.

Phone and chargers. Staying in touch with your coordinator is a key part of the support service.

Toiletries and personal care items. These everyday essentials provide comfort and help you settle in faster.

What Support Does a Candidate Receive?

The company accompanies the employee at every stage of employment:

Selection of a job that matches your skills and expectations. Preparation of documents: insurance, contracts, visas. Organization of travel and accommodation — housing prepared in advance. Support from a coordinator who stays with you throughout the entire employment period.
