Dutch for Recruitment Consultants
Practical Dutch for recruiters and recruitment consultants in the staffing industry.
In the staffing industry, everything revolves around communication. Recruitment consultants switch daily between candidates, clients and colleagues — and must respond quickly, clearly and professionally. Click on a situation to see what targeted language training can mean.
A client calls with a question. You know the answer — but you're not sure how to phrase it professionally and clearly in Dutch.
With telephone communication as the central theme, recruitment consultants practise the most common conversation structures: introducing yourself professionally, reaching the right person, answering a question and correctly closing the conversation.
A candidate didn't show up. A shift is cancelled. You need to respond immediately — professionally, clearly and without misunderstandings.
The course includes exercises with difficult situations that recruitment consultants recognise: reporting a candidate's absence, discussing schedule changes and professionally handling client complaints. With the right words and structure.
Pay slip, employment contract, hours registration, client — the Dutch professional vocabulary of the staffing industry is extensive and specific.
The course systematically builds the industry-specific vocabulary of recruitment consultants: the terms and expressions that come up daily in conversations with candidates and clients — practised in context, not as a word list.
A call from a candidate. An unexpected question from a client. A difficult situation on the work floor.

Personalised lessons focused on the specific communication needs of the employee. The trainer tailors the content to the work practice and development points of the participant. Ideal for employees who want to make rapid progress.
Training for a group of recruiters or recruitment consultants from the same staffing agency. Participants practise together with situations that directly match their daily work. Practical, recognisable and immediately applicable on the work floor.
A recruitment consultant who finds the right words can conduct conversations more clearly and respond more professionally to questions and unexpected situations. That is valuable for the employee, but also for the staffing agency and the people they work with every day.
