Monthly Employment Article
The Underground adds a new topic related to employment to its printed edition. The aim of this new topic is to help its readers have a better understanding of how to succeed in a job search in the Netherlands.

According to Nu.nl, the rate of unemployment in the Netherlands is rising rapidly and currently points at 7% of the workforce. As part of The Underground’s commitment to assist the community of The Hague with its needs, the paper will publish a monthly article regarding employment from March 2013 onwards. The aim of this new content is to help The Underground’s readers have a better understanding of how to succeed in job searches and eventually, to decrease the unemployment rate among The Hague’s residents.

Linda van Orsouw-Groener and Irina Eschbach from Together Abroad will be in charge of the content for this new topic. The experience and knowledge of this company in the recruiting field guarantees a monthly article full of tips, tricks, and best practices for finding that perfect job in the Netherlands!

From The Underground, we want to thank Together Abroad for collaborating with us and allowing us to keep providing the international and local communities of The Hague with interesting and useful content.

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.

Dr. Hrishiraj S | Clinical Research & Affairs Manager

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.

A. Aboufirass | Structural Engeer

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

S. Bhattacharjee | FP&A Manager

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".
