Leerdoelen
- Understand the visibility gap and why it affects international professionals
- Improve key sections of a CV or LinkedIn profile for stronger positioning
- Translate international experience into clear value for Dutch employers
Many international professionals are capable, experienced, and motivated. But when it comes to finding work in the Netherlands, something doesn’t always translate.
Applications don’t lead to interviews. Conversations don’t move forward. Feedback stays vague or doesn’t come at all.
This is what we call the visibility gap. It’s not about having more skills. It’s about how your experience is understood in a different context.
Following the previous session, we’re running this workshop again with a sharper focus on practical application and real examples.
This is not a lecture. We will actively work on your profile during the session.
What to expect
• Small group, focused setting
• Short explanations + practical exercises
• Work directly on your CV or LinkedIn
• Real examples and live rewriting
What we will work on
• Where your profile is unclear or too generic
• Translating international experience into local relevance
• Rewriting key parts of your CV or LinkedIn
• Making your value easier to understand at a glance
Who this is for
• Internationals currently looking for work in the Netherlands
• People applying but not getting interviews
• Professionals who feel their experience is not coming across clearly

Ben Brink
I’m an entrepreneur and community builder working at the intersection of careers, entrepreneurship, and innovation. I support internationals and career switchers in translating their experience into clear direction and concrete next steps in the Dutch context.
Ik heb JobOn ervaren als een positieve organisatie, waarin je je gekend weet en waar je de mogelijkheid wordt geboden om je vaardigheden te versterken, je persoonlijk te ontwikkelen en je netwerk te vergroten. De werkzaamheden voor JobOn gaven mij energie en een gevoel van waarde. Juist als je werkzoekend bent kan dat echt een verschil maken in hoe je je werkloosheid ervaart.
