What is the current status of the job market in The Netherlands?
The situation of the job market depends on the industry, area of expertise, years of experience, etc. It is difficult to give the general answer to this question, therefore usually we discuss this aspect with candidates involved in a recruitment process with us.
Can Octagon help me obtain a visa?
If you are a selected candidate of one of our clients, we will gladly help you apply for visa, because our firm is a registered sponsor with IND.
Can I come by Octagon’s offices?
