About EY

EY is a worldwide organization providing Assurance, Consulting, Strategy and Transactions, and Tax services that help solve their client's toughest challenges and build a better working world. Through their four service lines EY helps their clients capitalize on transformative opportunities. EY also helps them fulfill regulatory requirements, keep investors informed, and meet the needs of all of their stakeholders.

Women still remain underrepresented in the Dutch labour market. About half of the women in the Netherlands are not financially independent. That percentage is even higher for women with a refugee background. A large number of these women would like to work, but sometimes it is not easy to make this possible. That is why EY is offering job application skills training for talented women with a refugee background.

In this interactive session, EY’s recruiters will offer practical tips and guidance to

improve your job application and networking skills. Expect to:

- Receive tips for building a strong CV that grabs attention

- Understand how to present yourself effectively during job interviews

- Understand the importance of building a professional network

- Get insights into the recruitment process at EY and other companies

- Participate in role-play exercises with EY employees to improve your job interview skills

Who can participate?

- You are a person with a refugee background

- You are motivated to improve your career prospects in the Dutch job market;

preferably, you’re currently actively looking for a job

- You can attend the live session on 17 November in The Hague, from 10:00 to 3:30 PM.
