Land Your Job or Study in ... The Netherlands
The Netherlands punches well above its weight. A country of 18 million people hosts the European headquarters of companies like ASML, Shell, Philips, Booking.com, Heineken, and IKEA. Rotterdam is home to the largest port in Europe. Amsterdam ranks among the continent's top financial and tech hubs. For a non-EU professional, this combination of scale, innovation, and openness is rare. The language barrier that slows people down in other European countries simply does not exist here. The Dutch are among the most proficient English speakers in the world outside of native-speaking countries. Most professional environments operate entirely in English. That removes one of the biggest obstacles non-EU candidates face elsewhere. This session covers the study path and the direct job path side by side: visa options, living costs in Amsterdam and beyond, the multicultural workplace culture that makes integration genuinely easier, and how to position yourself in a market that spans logistics, tech, finance, agriculture, and life sciences. Two real cases show how international candidates turned Dutch openness into a concrete career move. The Netherlands is one of the most welcoming labour markets in Europe. This Thursday, we show you how to use that to your advantage. New episodes in this series cover a different European country every Thursday.

3 AI Skills to Land your Job in ... The Automation Industry
Some people assume automation is about software: algorithms, digital twins, remote monitoring dashboards. In practice, the industry is deeply physical. A robotic arm on a production line that welds the same joint ten thousand times a day with sub-millimeter repeatability. A programmable logic controller that keeps a bottling plant running in sequence, every second, without deviation. A motion control system precise enough to place a component on a circuit board at speeds a human hand could never match. These are tangible products; the factory floor does not forgive imprecision. I spent more than 10 years working with the automation industry as a supplier, with companies like Siemens, Schneider Electric, and Kuka among my key accounts. I understand what automation companies require from their partners and their people; I also know which skills are shifting fast right now because of AI. This Tuesday session covers the automation industry: one of the most technically rigorous, capital-intensive, and rapidly evolving sectors in industrial manufacturing. We will discuss three specific AI skills that are changing what hiring managers expect, and how you can demonstrate them before you walk into an interview. If you want a career where the tangible product you sell or develop keeps the modern world running, this session is for you.
