“Finding a job in the Netherlands can be challenging for international students, we’ve noticed,” says Nadine Berenst of Erasmus Student Network (ESN). “And for companies it is difficult to reach international students.”


To bridge this gap, ESN, the interdisciplinary student organisation AEGEE and the International Association for the Exchange of Students for Technical Experience (IAESTE), are holding a career event on 14 May at TU Delft Library.
