Welcome to Employ Werkt!
Is it known that our story begins with a young entrepreneur who was already helping others at the age of 12? Maxim Snoeker, now the proud co-owner of Employ Werkt! started as a handyman in his own 'business' called 'Maxim Helpt'. From mowing the grass to assisting elderly people who needed help with their iPad or iPhone, Maxim was always busy growing his client base and supporting people with all kinds of tasks.
Over the years, Maxim developed his team and so did the tasks he performed. When the coronavirus pandemic developed, Maxim noticed he had time left aside from his studies in Commercial Economics and was missing the challenge. He can't sit still, and entrepreneurship is in his blood. So in 2020, Studenttehuur, the staffing agency, was founded, which later (in August 2023) focused on all age groups and was renamed Employ Werkt!

Professional, friendly, and trustworthy are the words that come to mind when I think of Employ Werkt. Maxim is very friendly and knows his stuff. He's happy to listen to your needs and makes sure you feel heard. I haven't had a single regret and am very satisfied with the communication and mediation.

I've been working in healthcare (remotely) for quite some time now through Employ Werkt! I'm thrilled with this opportunity; the communication is great, and we regularly receive appreciation through texts, phone calls, or small gifts (Christmas gift, chocolate letter for Sinterklaas, Easter). Highly recommended! 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Frequently asked questions
More frequently asked questionsWhat does an introduction at Employ Werkt! look like?
We want to know who you are before we introduce you anywhere. That’s why we start with an introduction at our office or, if that suits better, digitally. It’s not a complicated job interview, but a simple conversation about what you’ve done, what you can do and especially what you’re looking for.
We discuss, among other things, the type of work that suits you, how many hours you want to work, what you want to earn and how far you’re willing to travel. Afterwards, we look at which vacancies and companies suit you.
What happens after I’ve started?
On your first day at work, we’ll come by with cake to celebrate your new job. At the end of the day, we’d like to hear how it went. After your first week, we’ll get in touch again: are you enjoying it, are there any issues and is entering your worked hours going well?
After that, we’ll keep visiting the workplace regularly. If you want to take a relevant course or obtain a certificate, we’ll look at the possibilities together. And often, after a while, a client will hire a colleague directly. So for us, you’re not just placed and then out of sight: you work through Employ.
Can Employ Werkt! arrange accommodation for me?
If you are coming to work from abroad or another region in the Netherlands, we can arrange accommodation. You will live in an SNF-certified, fully furnished property and always have your own bedroom. On average, you share the property with four colleagues. We provide bedding and there is a supermarket within ten minutes travel distance.
In many cases, we can also facilitate transport to your work, for example with an electric bike or a car. If something is broken or there is an issue with the property, please contact your account manager. We will ensure it is resolved.
Which courses and certificates can I take through Employ?
Sometimes a job suits you well, but you still lack a certificate, training or certain knowledge. Then we look together at what is needed to start or take the next step.
There are many possibilities: from a complete BBL course and offshore work courses to first aid, VCA, forklift and cherry picker training. We can also facilitate Dutch language courses. What is possible and relevant varies per person and per job.
Are there also long-term jobs?
Yes. Many clients are looking for colleagues for the long term. You can start through Employ and after an agreed period be employed directly by the client. With recruitment and selection you are employed directly by the client. If a position is temporary, we mention that in the vacancy.
What can I do if there is no suitable vacancy listed?
Register with us then as well. We know many companies in the North of the Netherlands and sometimes already know where someone fits before a vacancy is posted online. We discuss what kind of work, location and number of hours suit you and search from there.
Can I call you if there’s something?
Yes. At Employ you have a contact person who knows you and whom you can call or message, even after you have started. You can call our general number {telefoon} or get in touch directly with your contact person.
How does Employ Werkt! help with hiring staff?
We start with a conversation about the role, your company and the team. Then we search for and speak to candidates personally. You won’t receive a pile of CVs, but only meet people we think fit the job and your company. Depending on the chosen service, we also arrange the contract, payroll and support after the start.
You'll hear from us within one working day.
