JOB SEARCH STRATEGY SESSION

Knowing what roles to target, where to look and how to approach the market gives your job search a much better chance of producing results. But those things aren't always obvious. Whether you are starting from scratch, unsure which roles actually fit your experience, or have been applying for months without getting the results, job search can wear down your confidence before it produces a result.

The Job Search Strategy Session brings your focus to what actually matters. Drawing on 13+ years on the hiring side, I'll assess your situation and give you a clear view of what to target, where to focus your search and what will make a difference.

JOB SEARCH STRATEGY SESSION

INCLUDES

€190

I'll help you build the right starting point. We'll work through questions such as:

• What roles should I realistically be targeting?
• Which types of companies or opportunities should I focus on?
• Where should I look for these roles and which channels are actually worth my time?
• How should I divide my time between applications, networking and other activities?
• What should I do first?

If you're new to the Dutch job market specifically, we'll also cover what's different here — how hiring actually works, what's considered a normal timeline and the unwritten norms that can be hard to pick up from outside.

The goal is to leave with a practical way to start your search, adapted to your situation.

The focus of our work together depends on where you are in the job search process and what you've already tried. Most people recognize themselves in more than one of the situations below — that's normal. We'll start with what feels most true for you right now, and the session will naturally cover whatever else is relevant to your specific case.

Your situation determines where we focus.

We'll help you work out where your experience could take you next. We'll explore:

• What roles could be a realistic fit for your experience?
• Which parts of your background are most transferable?
• What level should you target?
• Are there adjacent roles or directions worth considering?
• How can you narrow your options into a focused job search?

The goal is to leave with a clearer target and a more focused search.

We'll look at what's happening in your current search and where it needs to change. We'll review:

• What roles you're applying for
• Where you're finding opportunities
• How you're approaching applications
• What response you're getting
• Where you're losing momentum in the process

We'll identify whether the issue is primarily your target, your search approach, your applications or your ability to convert opportunities and decide what to address first.

The goal is to leave knowing what needs to change and where to focus your effort.

Once you book, you'll receive a short intake questionnaire about your current situation, target and anything you've already tried. I'll review your answers before the session so we can spend our time working through your situation rather than starting from scratch.

01

We'll spend 90 minutes together working through your situation, asking the questions that will help us understand what's happening and where your attention will have the greatest impact. I'll share an honest perspective from the hiring side, point out what might be holding you back and help you make decisions about your next steps.

02

You'll leave with a prioritized action plan you can start using immediately. If the session identifies a specific area that needs deeper work — such as your CV and positioning or interview performance— I'll recommend the most relevant next step.

THE STEPS

I'll look at your situation through the lens of 13+ years in HR and on the hiring side — how employers find candidates, how they assess applications, where candidates typically lose momentum and what makes someone more likely to get into the conversation. That perspective helps us build a search around how the market actually works rather than simply doing more of what you've already been doing.
