Were you joined by a spouse or partner when relocating to the Netherlands? And is your spouse/partner looking for a job? UWV EURES offers support to spouses and partners of highly skilled migrants, researchers, self-employed, startups, orientation year permit holders and all EU-citizens.
Four-day online workshop
Your spouse or partner can register for a four-day online workshop. Here, a trainer will provide valuable and practical assistance. This includes reviews of CVs and motivation letters, interview preparation and personalised tips for job searching and career development. They will also receive guidance on networking and navigating the Dutch labour market and culture. It will be a very valuable workshops series!

Make sure your partner registers in time!
Your partner can register via the EURES website. Due to organisation policy, this link is only available in Dutch. What your partner needs to fill out:
First and last name, mail address, date of birth, address (including street number, zip code and city of residence). They will be asked to confirm having a permit that allows them to work in the Netherlands. They also need to write down their motivation for taking part in this workshop and upload their CV. And lastly, a security check.
