Henk
45 years old – Recovered from burnout
“My burnout made me realize that working as a project manager at an IT company wasn’t the right fit for me anymore. I attended StartFest with a list of what I did and didn’t want. Now I work as a social worker at Lentis.”
Soufian
29 years old – Helping asylum seekers
“The Werkcentrum helped my cleaning company find motivated refugees with resettlement status. They’re hardworking and a real asset to my team!”
Kim
41 years old – Enjoying her new job
“I used to work as a counselor for specific target groups, but I didn’t like it. I earned my nursing assistant (IG) certification and found a new job. I really enjoy my work now!”
Dennis
26 years old – Found a more meaningful job
I was looking for a job where I could make a bigger difference. With the help of a career coach at the Werkcentrum, I learned to discover what was actually possible. Now my work is a combination of lifestyle coaching and personal training.
