The Career Service Humanities has several courses on offer:
Workshop: Competences in Humanities
Before you start to approach the labour market, it is wise to know what your value is. This workshop is about discovering your academic skills and your knowledge as a Humanities Graduate. Questions like: “What skills and knowledge are typical for a Humanities Graduate?”, “What distinguishes humanities graduates from other graduates?” will be put central.
At the end of the workshop participants will be able to ‘sell’ themselves and explain their added value to an organization and/or company.

Workshop: How to find a job or internship in The Netherlands?
What does the international job market look like? What sort of companies and organizations are interested in or interesting for non-Dutch professionals? This workshop is aimed at those students who are looking to launch their career in The Netherlands, but do not speak Dutch. The labour market is –like the entire world- becoming more and more internationally connected, and the Dutch labour market is no exception. Fewer organisations and companies will operate strictly on a national level. However, the majority of positions in The Netherlands require a fluency in the Dutch language. At the end of the workshop, participants will have an idea of the specific part of the labour market aimed at internationals and will be able to plan their strategy to enter this market.
