Hello everyone,
I am Polish and I want to move to Lisbon. Actually I work in Poland but I look for a job in Portugal, using mainly Linkedin, I send a lot of CVs every week. I concentrate on the polish-spoken job offers, but not only. I realize that it is much easier to find a job when you are already in Portugal, companies take people from local market...but -because of money, I can't just quick my job now and take this risk to go to Portugal without certainly that I have a job there....my question is : did any of you find a job through internet? did u have a skype interview? i really would love to hear any opinion/ history of you, I wonder if this method has any chance...i hope I will find here someone who did it, it will give me hope and motivation
regards,
Gosia

Hello!
a little bit ( I think level A2/B1) and it is Brazilian Portuguese....but I try to learn by myself, I listen to portuguese radio, read articles, I have a plan to start classes. I know that it is essencial,that's why I plan to learn more here in Poland and move to Portugal in the beggining of next year, not earlier. On the other hand, I suppose there are international companies where English is basic language and Portuguese is not required...in Warsaw live a lot of foreigners and they have this kid of job, so I hope there is a chance:)

Dear Deniz,

great to hear it, thank you. Actually I apply for this kind of job with Polish, I see these offers and I hope one day I will get a job.
If you know that your company need someone with Polish, and can hire someone not from local market, don't hesitate to contact me:) I can move to Portugal within one month,just to quit a job here and go:)

regards,
Gosia
