Employment in the Netherlands grew by 16,800 jobs in October 2017. Growth was mainly in business services, where the number of jobs increased by over 11,000 according to the ADP Netherlands Employment Report. This monthly report is produced by the ADP Research Institute in collaboration with Moody's Analytics.

The report shows the monthly development of total (non-agricultural) employment in the Netherlands, based on real employment figures. Thus, it is not based on data from people seeking a job.

Solid job growth in business services

"The Netherlands saw strong growth in employment in October. Compared to last October, the number of jobs grew by 2.5%," said Ahu Yildirmaz, vice president and co-head of the ADP Research Institute. "Most sectors experienced significant growth, with business services taking the lead unsurprisingly. Business services have already shown robust growth in the past year."

Employment Development October 2017:

  • Industry + 1,400
  • Construction + 1,800
  • Trade, Transport and Hospitality + 2,300
  • Information and Communication + 1,500
  • Financial services + 200
  • Business services + 11,200
  • Energy and utilities - 100
  • Other sectors - 1,400
    TOTAL + 16,800

For an expat moving to the Netherlands, getting the right direction is very important. It's important that one knows which steps and direction to take. Linda is an exceptionally talent counselor, her advice has helped me land a job within a week of coming to the Netherlands. I am grateful for her mentoring and look forward to a great working relationship in the future.

Together Abroad provided expert advice on personal branding including developing a top-notch, market-aware CV, highly tailored job applications, and approach strategies with potential employers in the Netherlands. Furthermore, I found them be highly knowledgeable in key related fields such as recruitment strategy, immigration law, contracts, labor agreements, and (un)employment benefits. I would recommend Together Abroad to anyone who needs professional help with transitioning to a new career.

Linda is a big mind. She thinks about things that the rest normally overlook. The insight she has about the dutch job market can only be achieved through years of experience and persistence.

Her business savvy is complemented by her mastery of understanding the client's needs and requirements. For my career I could say, she was the “Mary Poppins”, who guided me through thick and thin and helped me to land a career in the Netherlands

If you are going to enlist the services of a "Career Coach" look no further. The only person you want in your corner is Linda van Orsouw. As an expat, you absolutely want to work with a highly skilled and knowledgeable professional who knows their way around the Dutch career/employment/job market. Linda assisted me in writing and positioning my CV, helped me organize and prioritize my list of opportunities, coached me through mock interviews and was there when I got offered a senior position only 2 months later. When asked I will only refer to Linda and "Togetherabroad".
