Hi all! I’m thinking about moving to the Netherlands in a consulting role, currently based in London.

Any advice on whether this move is possible given I’m not currently speaking Dutch? (But super open to learning!)

Thanks for your help!

Possible! I didn’t speak Dutch but by investing some time networking, I got hired at a big 4. Strategy firms all require Dutch though :/

Join one of the bigger companies (I work at Capgemini).

We have free Dutch courses / programs to help you out. That being said… everyone speaks English on the floor and I’d say around 80% of our clients do as well.

Starting at a larger company gives you to opportunity to do great work while working on your Dutch (if you want to).

Dm me if you want to know more
