How does it work?

RefugeeWork connects employers with refugee job seekers.

We are part of Refugee Talent Hub and, through our work, contribute to a Netherlands where employers recognise and make use of refugees’ talents, and where refugees have the right opportunities to succeed in the labour market.

Step 1: Create a profile

Registering as an employer is simple. You can create a free profile for your organisation.

Before your profile becomes active, it must first be approved by us. This verification process is essential to ensure quality and reliability. It includes checks such as a Chamber of Commerce registration check, address verification, domain verification, and an overall review of the organisation’s credibility and reputation.

Would you like to know more about this verification process? Please email us at info@refugeework.nl.

Step 2: Complete your profile and create vacancies

You can now complete your profile with relevant information. In addition, several colleagues can create their own login accounts under your organisation.

Important points for your profile and vacancies:

• Complete your profile as fully as possible: the more information you provide, the greater the chance of attracting candidates who are a good match for your organisation.
• Put yourself in the candidate’s position: what would they like to know about your organisation? Include information that may seem obvious to you but may not be clear to someone from outside your organisation.
• Write your texts in B1-level Dutch, as this is accessible for most people.
• Add a suitable image to your vacancies, as this increases visibility.
• You can add motivation questions to a vacancy. Think beforehand (together with a colleague) about what you would like to ask candidates. Also take a look at our tips.

Step 3: Receive applications

When a candidate applies for your vacancy, you will receive a notification. You can then view the candidate’s profile and application information.

Are you interested and would you like to get to know the candidate? Once you accept the application, you can contact the candidate to arrange an introductory meeting.

Renewed platform

RefugeeWork has recently been renewed. Our website and platform have a fresh new look. But that is not all: we have worked hard to create more complete profiles, making it easier to match vacancies with candidates.

We have taken feedback about usability seriously and included it in the design. We have also looked ahead to the future by making improvements behind the scenes, ensuring that the platform is ready for further development.

Over the coming period, we will continue improving and developing RefugeeWork. We will, of course, keep all our employers and candidates informed.
