Is this for you?

You live in the Netherlands and you are looking for your next role.

You might recognise some of these:

✔ You apply but hear back on few of your applications

✔ You are unsure which roles to target

✔ Your LinkedIn profile lists your tasks but says little about you

✔ Your CV covers everything you have ever done, and recruiters skim past it

✔ You find it hard to explain your experience to Dutch employers

If two or more of these sound like you, the Sprint will help.

Summer is perfect time to work on your story, prepare your profile and network.

When vacancies pick up again in September, your profile and CV are already done.

You can spend September applying, without worrying about which direction to go and what to put on your CV.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What if I can't attend one of the sessions live?

No problem. Every session is recorded, and you get the recording the next day. You also keep access to the Boost Your Career e-learning platform, so you can catch up on the material in your own time. If you miss a session, send Aiva your questions and she will answer them in the next session.

2. Is this a group program or will I get personal attention?

The sessions are live and in a group, because hearing other people work through the same questions helps a lot. During the sessions, you get direct feedback on your own LinkedIn texts and CV. The group stays small, so there is room for your situation.

3. I'm not even sure what role I want. Is this too early for me?

Session 1 is built for this situation. We look at your experience, your skills, and what the Dutch market is asking for, and you narrow it down to two or three target roles. You do not need clarity to join. You join to get clarity.

4. Do I need to prepare anything, and how much time does it take between sessions?

Each session is 90 minutes. Between sessions, plan for min two hours to work on your LinkedIn, CV, or messages. You get homework, so you always know what to do. If you have a busy week, the recordings and platform are there and you can catch up at your own pace.

5. What happens after I pay?

You get a confirmation email straight away with the session links and your access to the e-learning platform. If you need invoice for your employer, please get in contact with Aiva directly: [email protected]
