Slightly more job vacancies

  • 3 thousand more unfilled job vacancies
  • Increase mainly in commercial services

According to the latest figures released by Statistics Netherlands there were 94 thousand unfilled vacancies by the end of September 2013, up 3 thousand on the previous quarter. The figures are seasonally adjusted. This constitutes the first increase in the number of vacancies in two years.
The rise in the number of vacancies is entirely found in private companies. The number of vacancies in government stabilised. The largest increase was realised by commercial services. The number of vacancies, in round figures, rose by 3 thousand to 59 thousand. There was again a slight decrease in the care sector, which had 11 thousand vacancies at the end of September.

The development of the number of unfilled vacancies is affected by the number of new and filled vacancies. In the third quarter of 2013, 159 thousand new vacancies were registered, 5 thousand fewer than one year previously. The number of filled vacancies was also below the level of one year previously and stood at 162 thousand.

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.

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".
