As an expat, I have enough experience and qualifications from my home country to find a good job. Yet, since moving to the Netherlands, I keep facing rejection. If I apply for jobs that match my experience, I’m often rejected because I don’t speak Dutch. If I apply for less demanding jobs, I’m rejected because I’m considered overqualified. It’s frustrating. The Netherlands has a huge labour shortage, and almost everyone speaks English, yet it seems there is often no willingness—or patience—to look beyond the first impression and the initial profile of a person. As a HR specialist,could you share your opinion about this ?

Hi! I’m a juridisch adviseur in labor law here in The Netherlands. I work independently with expats here because, among other reasons, they screwed me also with these things. I focus on Spanish and English market but if you are looking for a lawyer/legal advisor, don’t hesitate to contact me!

My employer gave me a new contract (after the temporary one was about to end) but didn’t sign it, and literally one day before my contracted ended he said he’s not going to continue with me

As an HR expert, if you had been off work for a year due to mental illness and are now ready to return, would you recommend disclosing it during a job interview, or is it better not to mention it? Thanks

This is gold, I wish I knew. They told me a week before that I was going to have a permanent contract but they forgot to tell me, and I decided not to continue so I was not worried about the lack of communication. That was my only temporary contract 😅.

After 3 years of temporary contracts they are not renewing so I don’t get a full contract. How is the process of unemployment and which documents I need to get the unemployment subsidy 🥹?

my boss had told me through email that he was going to renew my contract a few weeks ago - but yesterday, now that I'm injured, he called me and told me over the phone that they won't be renewing my contract after all, should I email to get email confirmation or will I get more by not reminding them to tell me through writing? Also can I get compensation for them firing me right as I'm injured making it harder to get new work?
