Frequency: 1 episode/9d. Total Eps: 6

Working in the Netherlands and wondering why nobody warned you it would be this different? Resettl is the podcast for international professionals finding their footing in Dutch work and life. We're Mirjam and Corine, career coaches and former expats. Our backgrounds are in HR and marketing, so we know how Dutch employers really decide, and how to position you so the right people notice your value. We share insights and real examples from our coaching practice: the Dutch job market, Dutch (work)place culture (yes, they're very direct), and building a life that genuinely fits.

Does speaking Dutch really matter for your career? (with Jacky van der Starre - Speak Professional Dutch)

Friday, August 21, 2026 • Duration 39:43

You understand Dutch, but the moment you have to speak, you freeze. This one is for you.

Mirjam and Corine sit down with Jacky van Der Starre, founder of Speak Professional Dutch and Taalstar and creator of the Spreekwafel app & Spreekwafel Circle eco-system , for a warm, practical conversation about the gap between knowing Dutch and daring to use it.

Her philosophy is refreshingly simple: speak first, perfect later. Confidence does not come before speaking, it comes from it.

We get into what even a few sentences of Dutch actually open up in your career, why Dutch colleagues switch to English on you and how to gently take the floor back, and Jacky sets a live challenge you can try yourself (see further down)

The Dutch sentence for you to practice:

"Ik begrijp je punt, maar ik denk dat we het ook van een andere kant kunnen bekijken."

(I understand your point, but I think we could also look at it from a different perspective.)

Or, the short version if that feels more comfortable:

"Hoe bedoel je?" (What do you mean?)

Trailer - Resettl origin story

Season 1 · Episode 1

Friday, August 21, 2026 • Duration 00:43

Two coaches, one shared plot: we both built careers abroad, moved back to the Netherlands, and found that home no longer fit the people we had become. So we built Resettl, career partners for International professionals. Press play for the short version, then start with episode one for the whole story.

Two careers abroad, one company: how Resettl began

Season 1 · Episode 2

Friday, August 21, 2026 • Duration 15:36

Two coaches, one shared plot. After years of building careers abroad, from Karachi and Singapore to Geneva and the US, we both moved back to the Netherlands and found that home no longer fit the people we had become.

In this first co-hosted episode we tell how a networking walk we were not supposed to keep talking on turned into Resettl, why a "fragmented" international CV is a treasure rather than a gap, and what our two lenses, HR and recruitment on one side, marketing and positive psychology on the other, let us spot that a single coach would miss.

If your years abroad feel like something you keep having to explain away, start here.

00:00 Coming home was its own move

The 3 mistakes that keep hardworking internationals stuck in the Dutch job market

Season 1 · Episode 5

Monday, August 3, 2026 • Duration 15:24

You're not doing anything wrong. You're just doing more of the wrong thing - and in the Dutch job market, that gets exhausting.

In this episode Mirjam walks through three patterns that quietly work against internationals job hunting in the Netherlands, and the small, slightly uncomfortable shifts that actually move things. Fewer applications, aimed better. One real conversation instead of ten cold clicks. And your international story told as a strength, not smoothed away.

Chapters:

00:00 Your experience is the superpower

00:32 Who this show is for

01:41 Three "mistakes" (really patterns)

02:45 Mistake 1: numbers vs targeting

05:20 Mistake 2: waiting to network

07:00 Front door vs side door (via-via)

09:13 Networking in real life

10:22 Mistake 3: adapting too much

12:15 What to do this week

13:24 Who it's for + free webinar

14:56 A small ask before you go

In this episode:

- Why the numbers game loses to the targeting game

- Why the "side door" of networking opens more often here than the front door, and how to do it without the cringe.

- Why blending in is the opposite of what makes you hireable. Your difference is the point.

Resettl is Mirjam and Corine — career partners for internationals building a life and career in the Netherlands, and for Dutch repats coming home. We've stood in your shoes.
