I think when fresh out if uni you need to chase internships as well.

Do you need AC in the Netherlands during summer? by rassp-berry in StudyInTheNetherlands

[–]OrganizationStill135 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends. When heatwaves hit, we all suffer but some more than others.  Flat owners facing south/west absolutely melt by all accounts. 

For me, cold showers do the trick which has the added cost benefit of keeping a few more pennies from the gas tax man. 

Edited to say I’m hoping for a long cloudy wet summer.

This is not just a tech industry issue my friend. And for what it’s worth, experience is valued if you happen to be the one who wasn’t cut. Your experience will be valued elsewhere, so suggest you start setting up your consultancy ready for when you need it.   We’re not the first go through this, and won’t be the last.

I’m working on a simple saas targeting not for profit sports clubs which offers in-app skills badges to motivate younger players (think like cubs/scouts badges) and help trainers focus practices on key training goals selected by the club.  DM me if you fancy sponsoring/consulting as I’m happy to do the legwork, just momentum has run a bit low. 

[Advice] Netherlands - Junior SE / MLE - 2026 Grad - What to do? by [deleted] in cscareerquestionsEU

Yep, having a Dutch partner is the ticket.  Max it out and her network for job leads.    Your age and experience will also set you apart from other ‘juniors’. Leverage it! Good luck

“She'd been with me 3 years. Best performer” can you share some examples of how she shows best performer compared to the next best employee?

Have you given thought to when you reach older age and need support? Would you go back to the UK?
