TU Delft provides a series of 6 workshops to partners of TU Delft employees, who have (recently) moved to the Netherlands and would like to learn more about the Dutch job market and the job application process in The Netherlands.
The workshops are thematically coordinated in order to achieve the best result, therefore, enrolments are only possible for the whole workshop programme and not for an individual workshop only. You will work on your CV, motivation letter, pitch, and LinkedIn profile.
Besides getting trained on the Dutch job market, you will also get to know your peer participants who might be in a similar situation as you are. After the final workshop, we have lunch together and a professional photographer will take your profile picture for your LinkedIn profile (if possible due to COVID regulations).
In addition, participants of the workshop can avail of walk-in career counselling sessions with TU Delft career counsellors and/or receive support from our Dual Career Programme.
