Public employment services

There are more than 400 local employment offices providing services for both foreign and Polish job seekers. The Polish Public Employment Service consists of regional labour offices called Wojewodzki Urzad Pracy, and local labour offices (job centres) called Powiatowy Urzad Pracy.

Higher education careers support

The first careers service in Poland was established in 1993 with help from the UK at the Nicolaus Copernicus University in Torun. There are now more than 35 careers services in Polish universities and institutes of higher education, with more being set up.

Careers services provide guidance to students, help with job applications and information on further study. Services to employers include organising presentations and candidate pre-selection. Careers services are also responsible for running job fairs.
