AMSTERDAM – According to a global survey of expatriate by the Intelligence Group 2/3 of Dutch expats wants to return in the Netherlands.
The reason that Dutch expatriates stay in other countries is mainly to gain experience.
This deviates significantly from for example French or Belgian expats, who have moved abroad because of the crisis and never want to come back to their own country.
Besides the Netherlands (62 percent), the Australian (84 percent), Brazil (74 percent) and Chinese (61 percent) expats want to ever settle in their homeland again.
Belgians, Israelis and Greeks on the contrary do not want to return (90 percent).
Expats in Belarus have no desire whatsoever to return to their own country. Only 95 percent of Belarusians likes to remain abroad.

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".
