Job searching with ADHD

Leerdoelen

  • Recognize that you are not alone in facing challenges
  • Gain renewed motivation to approach job applications
  • Discover practical life hacks that work for neurodivergent individuals, rather than neurotypical advice
  • Learn how to leverage your neurodivergence as a strength

Do you have ADHD and are looking for a job? Do you struggle with deadlines, motivation, executive function, or anxiety during the application process? You’re not alone! Join us for a 2-hour interactive workshop in Amstelveen, where we’ll explore the challenges ADHD job seekers often face—and share practical strategies to overcome them.

Life hacks & sharing experiences

This is not a lecture but a conversation where we’ll reflect, share experiences, exchange life hacks and discuss solutions that work for us. An ADHD coach will guide the discussion, offering insights and actionable tips, and at the same time inviting us to recognize any self-sabotaging behaviours we might engage in. The workshop will invite us to learn with and from each other as well as to realize how to use unique strengths within us.

Topics include:

✅ Managing executive dysfunction during job applications
✅ Making your own neurodivergent “operating manual”
✅ Staying motivated and confident
✅ Handling rejection and feeling overwhelmed
✅ Time awareness and meeting deadlines
✅ Overcoming anxiety in interviews and networking
✅ How to handle ADHD stigma when joining a corporate environment

By the end of the session, you'll walk away with new strategies, a sense of community, and the option to stay connected with fellow participants for ongoing support and accountability.

Join us!

Come as you are—whether you’re actively applying, considering a career change, or just curious. Let’s navigate the job market together!

As a fellow expat I know the struggles of applying for a job in the Netherlands. Excited to learn from each other and grow together!

Wat een geweldig initiatief! Wat een mooie manier om via de rol van eventmanager een podium te creëren voor de werkzoekende (eventmanager) om zelfvertrouwen op te bouwen, mensen te ontmoeten en verhalen te horen van medewerkzoekenden.
