For employers
Our province is buzzing! Every day, inspiring ideas and meaningful initiatives for a healthy, clean and happy world grow out of the Frisian clay. You just have to see it for yourself. Because as honest, passionate and proud as Frisians are, they are just as modest. Just be yourself, that's good enough. For a long time, that was good enough. But with the glaring shortages in the labour market set to increase over the next fifteen years, we desperately need everyone to keep Friesland liveable.
There are loads of great employers and career opportunities
Meanwhile, we still see people leaving Friesland because they believe there are no opportunities for a meaningful career here. Or we hear that people would like to live and work in Friesland, but have no idea where exactly. That's a shame, if you ask us. Because this place is teeming with wonderful employers and career opportunities!
Our mission
We are going to make sure that everyone discovers this. That people both inside and outside Friesland start to see the province as we already do: the place where you want to be. We build bridges between all those inspiring Frisian employers and ambitious employees. So that employers can realise their dreams and employees can come home from work feeling good. Every day.
In short: WRK.frl/ is Friesland's talent attraction programme.
As an initiative originating from the business community and promoted by the province, WRK.frl/ ensures that companies and job seekers find each other.

It's easy, quick and free for Frisian employers. Discover the benefits and how you can participate.
How to get involved
WRK.frl/ focuses on attracting talent from outside Friesland. And we ensure that talent already present in our province is better retained. Talent of all ages and educational levels. We do this in many different ways. With a digital platform, campaigns inside and outside Friesland, a WRKLab full of enthusiastic students, events and WRKShops, we are the bridge between employers and job seekers.

...goes a long way! How do you create an attractive company profile? And how does the matching tool work? We will explain it to you.
Get started
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 âpendingâ. 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 employerâs 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?
â
Simpler and faster processing of applications
We send you all the applicantâs 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.Â
â
Consistent and user-friendly experience
Applicants donât have to fill in complicated forms or navigate through multiple pages. Everything is clear and easy to use, which lowers the barrier to applying.Â
â
More applications
Applying becomes simpler and faster. And that naturally results in more applicants. This increases your chances of finding suitable candidates.Â
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 âinternshipâ 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 applicantsâ 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 employersâ 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 websiteâs 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.
Any employer in Friesland can create a free employer profile. You can do this via the link below under the heading ‘Sign up’.
Sign upHave you forgotten your password? You can enter your email address via the link below and request a password reset. If the email address youâve entered is on our records, weâll email that address containing a link to reset your password.
Reset passwordIn the dashboard, you will see the ‘Profile’ heading in the blue left-hand column. In these profile settings, you will see the current email address for your account. If you wish to change this, you can do so by typing the new email address in the same field. Then click the âUpdate Profileâ button and the change will be applied. You will also receive an email confirming this change.
See your dashboardUsing the Matchtool on WRK.frl/, jobseekers can answer a series of questions to see exactly which employers are a good fit for them in terms of corporate culture. Employers can enter their answers to these questions in their employer dashboard. This ensures that the initial contact between employers and jobseekers gets off to a good start, as jobseekers already know a great deal about the corporate culture and can see that it matches their expectations.
