More about WRK.frl/
If you change any information in the dashboard, you must always click the "Update Profile" button. This blue button is located at the very bottom right of the page.
As a company, you can post your job vacancies on WRK.frl/. You can create the vacancy in your company profile; it will then appear in our system as ‘pending’. The vacancy will then be approved, and once that has happened, it will be visible on the platform.
Every job vacancy has an application form that forwards applications directly to the email address you have provided. As an employer on WRK.frl/, you are responsible for ensuring that the correct email address in our system is kept up to date. You can check this and update it where necessary via your employer profile. It is also possible to include the employer’s email address in a job vacancy. WRK.frl/ has no access to the information sent by applicants and cannot recover lost information or information sent to an incorrect email address.
Why apply via a form?
✅ Simpler and faster processing of applications
We send you all the applicant’s details in a single, clear email. This means you have the CV, cover letter and contact details conveniently in one place. And every email looks the same. This ensures simple processing of applications.
✅ Consistent and user-friendly experience
Applicants don’t have to fill in complicated forms or navigate through multiple pages. Everything is clear and easy to use, which lowers the barrier to applying.
✅ More applications
Applying becomes simpler and faster. And that naturally results in more applicants. This increases your chances of finding suitable candidates.
WRK.frl/ has the largest internship board in Friesland for both vocational and higher vocational students. Just as with job vacancies, WRK.frl/ can automatically post all internships on behalf of many employers. And, of course, employers can also post their own internship vacancies. Post a vacancy as you normally would, tick the ‘internship’ box, and your vacancy will appear immediately on the internship noticeboard (subject to approval). In addition, students can also post an internship request. Employers can view these requests and easily have their contact details forwarded to the student. It is then up to the student to contact the employer. WRK.frl/ has no access to the information sent.
Internship BoardWRK.frl/ does not have access to applicants’ details. We are unable to contact these jobseekers.
WRK.frl/ has no insight into responses to job applications, coffee meetings or other potential points of contact between jobseekers and employers. If a company fails to respond to a job application, a coffee meeting or any other form of contact, the responsibility lies with the company itself. It is always possible that an email from a potential applicant has ended up in the spam folder; we therefore recommend checking your spam folder regularly.
WRK.frl/ uses a job listing scraper. This scraper allows us to retrieve job listings directly from 90% of employers’ websites and repost them on WRK.frl/. Before we repost a job vacancy, we check it manually to ensure that everything is correct. We are continuing to improve this system so that we can scrape data from an increasing number of employers. With the scraper, you no longer need to worry about it yourself, but you can always choose to post job vacancies manually (as well).
We are unable to scrape all websites for the following reason:
- The website’s design prevents effective scraping.
- PDFs can sometimes be difficult to extract.
- The technical structure of the website is unsuitable.
- Scraping is often impossible for employers who offer job vacancies from third parties, such as temporary employment agencies, recruiters, intermediaries, etc.
