Working without knowing Dutch
Many international organisations and research institutions operate in English or in multilingual teams on a daily basis. At the same time, this varies considerably depending on the sector and role. Learning Dutch broadens your prospects in the labour market and helps you integrate into the region more quickly. At the same time, there are plenty of organisations where international professionals can build their careers even without a fluent command of Dutch.
