About the Presenter:

Hi, my name is Karolijn Moes, and I’ll be telling you all about career opportunities in the Netherlands. Within the team, I focus on digital acquisition and the positioning of the Netherlands. Last summer, I stepped into the world of international business relations during my internship at the Dutch Mexican Chamber of Commerce, which led me to join the NPOE team. If you have any questions or would like to connect, feel free to reach out.
