The Dutch staffing company Randstad reports first-quarter results of 2015, which highlights significant revenue growth as a result of the positive currency effect. In total, it booked revenues of 4,4 billion euros, which was 12% higher than last year.

According to Reuters, Europe’s second-largest staffing company reported that revenues and earnings were particularly high in Britain, Luxembourg and Belgium. “The gradual recovery in Europe is reflected in our results, while we have also closed the market gap in both the Netherlands and France," said Chief Executive Jacques van den Broek in a statement on Thursday 30 April 2015.

In the Netherlands, revenue per working day is 10% higher than in the previous year’s first quarter. “There is a clear evidence of growth”, said van den Broek about the labour market in the Netherlands, as quoted by NU.nl.

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".
