    We know how hard it is for companies in The Netherlands to hire awesome IT specialists. The shortage of tech talent has increased competition for the best candidates, so it's now a real challenge to find and hire developers within the EU.

    It's time to look further afield.

    International candidates have outstanding experience, great qualifications and a shedload of enthusiasm. Plus, they're easier to bring on board than you think.

    With multiple work and residence permits, plus a complicated tax rebate, recruiting outside the EU can seem overwhelming. But we promise it's not.
