Biedronka launches recruitment festival across six Polish cities

Biedronka, one of Poland’s largest employers with nearly 90,000 staff, is launching the third edition of its Work Festival on October 15. The event will take place simultaneously in six locations: Warsaw, Poznań, Gdańsk, Wrocław, Olsztyn, and Rzeszów.

Moving away from traditional recruitment formats, the festival will feature chillout zones and electronic music to facilitate casual contact between recruiters and candidates. Participants do not need to prepare a CV for initial discussions. Following the physical events, interested individuals can connect with recruiters via chat, SMS, or phone calls until October 29.

In terms of compensation, over 70,000 Biedronka employees in stores and distribution centers received raises earlier this year. Additionally, the maximum monthly bonus for cashier-salespeople has doubled in 2026 to 500 PLN gross, potentially increasing total monthly earnings by up to 400 PLN gross for entry-level positions.
