Tom Pruymboom: "At Jongia, we want to keep innovating: WRK.frl/ helps us do just that!"
An inspiring insight from Tom Pruimboom, Sales Director at Jongia. Tom shares with us how the company is tackling the challenge of finding and retaining young talent in an increasingly competitive job market.
Finding and retaining young talent with WRK.frl/
At Jongia, we are committed to continuous innovation. This requires young professionals who are driven and keen to work with technologies such as machine learning and artificial intelligence. But finding new colleagues and interns isn’t always easy. How do you reach students and young jobseekers? And how do you showcase what your organisation has to offer them? WRK.frl/ has been a huge help to us in this regard. Thanks to our company profile on the website, we can easily share our latest vacancies. We also actively participate in WRK.frl/ events, where we can engage directly with students and share our story.
‘Young talent is finding its way to us more easily.’
Tom Pruymboom Sales Director at Jongia
We’ve also had positive experiences with WRKLab. Students there work on real-world challenges from our company, and it’s inspiring to see the fresh, creative ideas they come up with. We even found our current intern in the Marketing and Communications department through a WRK.frl event. This collaboration not only helps us to better reach young talent, but also to forge a stronger link between our company and the future of Friesland. And that is valuable for everyone.
