Employment

Are you able to offer employment to Ukrainians? Ukrainians often need to find employment before or within the first few weeks of arriving. Even though many are highly educated they are willing to take on any work and this often means they won't have experience in these areas.

Some may not have the English skills you would normally expect.

Please be patient.
