On July 6, we are organizing a meet-and-greet at Pon Equipment. Pon Equipment is actively looking for handy people with a refugee background who like to tinker with large machines and want to work in a practical and technical environment. Are you interested based on the meet-and-greet? Then you can spend a day with a technician.

About the meet-and-greet and afterwards

 The meet-and-greet takes place at the Almere branch. In preparation for the meet-and-greet, there will be a preparatory training for all participants on Thursday, June 22 from 11:00 AM to 12:00 PM. It is important that you can be there. During the meet-and-greet you will hear more about Pon Equipment and meet managers and recruiters. If you like it, you can then spend a day at a location of your choice. You will also learn more about the machines that Pon Equipment works with. This way you can see with your own eyes what an employee at Pon Equipment does... And of course whether Pon Equipment is something for you.
