MON 16 Nov - Job Seekers Assemble: Tackle the Search Together (by JobOn)
Looking for your next career step in the Netherlands? As part of our mission to support internationals with useful resources and opportunities, AIC is happy to highlight this upcoming interactive session organized by JobOn in Amstelveen.
Most job hunting happens in isolation—just you, a laptop, and endless job boards. Yet real breakthroughs often happen through human connection: an unexpected tip, an introduction, or a fresh perspective. Finding a role today comes with shared challenges, from AI screening filters to shifting hiring expectations. This workshop is designed to tackle those hurdles collectively.
What to expect
This session is part of JobOn’s networking month and runs as an open, participatory group discussion rather than a traditional lecture. It provides a collaborative environment to:
-
Exchange practical insights: Learn tips, tools, and strategies directly from fellow job seekers navigating the Dutch market.
-
Work on targeted topics: Break out into smaller focus groups around specific challenges (e.g., navigating AI screening, uncovering hidden vacancies, visa/sponsorship topics, or pivoting careers).
-
Define clear next steps: Set personal or shared goals to stay motivated.
-
Expand your network: Share support, offer advice, and build meaningful peer connections.
Following the group discussions, there will be dedicated time for coffee, informal chats, and Q&A.
About the Facilitator
The session will be hosted by Amar Latif Qazi, event manager at JobOn. With over 8 years of experience across program management, social development, and training, Amar guides the flow and breakout groups, allowing participants to bring their own experiences and solutions to the table.
