Hi Mani,

Thanks for responding back. i've been offered a job in IBM,Brno. Just wondering about work permit process viz. who is going to initiate,how much does it cost, is IBM going to bear the expenses, should we go to Embassy, what kind of documentation do they ask, how long will it take, once given will we be able to stay there for an year without any VISA issues etc.

I know it's a lot of questions but i would appreciate any help.

How long you have been there and what's your experience with IBM and BRNO, your name sounds like you are from Andhra :-)

Once you receive IBM offer and after acceptance you will get mail from Manpower consultancy. They will send u mail regarding visa information and documents

You will get 2 years work permit after 2 years if u wish to stay back u have to apply extension of visa u will get other 2 yrs extension

Company pays you relocation amount of 15000 crowns after completion of 3 months in IBM

You have to pay from your pocket all visa expenses and ticket to Czech republic

To Sumbit visa you have to personally visit embassy in Delhi by booking appointment and visa process takes 45days an average but some cases it may take up to 90days

I am from Hyderabad

Thanks for the reply Mani, it's really helpful.

I guess work permits are specific to companies that provide them, so is there a way to work in other parts of Europe after 2 years when IBM visa expires. I know except IBM nobody processes visas for people from non EU countries. So, did you guys figure out any way to work in EU or should we stick to Czech Republic only.

How is IBM,BRNO?. Do you feel alright or isolated, i guess there will be lot of Europeans you work with, are they friendly?. We know how to deal with US and UK clients, but i guess it can be little different there. How frequently you run into Indians, i mean how many will be there :-)

Nice to know that you are from HYD, hope there are lot of Telugu people..btw,what's your experience and what technology you are into if you are okay to share.

Good day,
Prasanth

Yes Work Permit as company specific , if you change company you need submit the new employee contract then Minister of interiors update their database and issues new bio metric card.

Employeer name does not written on your visa or residence card.

IBM is ok but big challenge is language .if u know czech then it will helpful.

not quite telugu people聽 approx. 10 people i think max.

I am from SAP

Thanks Mani, i will check the link and apply accordingly. But i may not get it in one day as my present address is different from permanent address.

One more question i have is, what's this 'Apostille' and where do i get it done?.I work in Chennai but i'm from Andhra, can i get it done in Chennai or should i go to Andhra?, how long it might take?.

I'd appreciate your time!

Hi Prasantb and Mani...

The only reason why 'they' block your email address is because it clearly states in the Code of Conduct for the FORUM that posting personal info on open forum is not advisable. Have you guys gone through it by any chance ?
