We can help you hold on to
international specialist workers
When we ask companies in East Jutland about their biggest challenge,
the answer comes back promptly: we lack specialized labour.
The companies that have had the greatest success with attracting and retaining internationally
qualified labour, are those in which the travelling
partner also gains a connection to the Danish
labour market.
Does your company have international specialists you would like to hold on to? Then tear out
the folder in the middle and share it with your
international employees or your HR department.
The goals of the Business Region Aarhus program for accompanying partners are:
- To retain international specialists by connecting their accompanying partners to the East
Jutland labour market.
- To ensure that companies are aware of the
competencies that accompanying partners
possess and help them on their way into
the East Jutland labour market. This could
be for example, assistance in setting up a
coffee meeting, an internship, or even a job
opportunity.
The consultant in your municipality is ready to
help accompanying partners on their way into
the East Jutland labour market by:
- Providing assistance in the competency
mapping process.
- Helping to build and strengthen their networks and contact potential employers.
- Assistance in the facilitation of internships
and wage subsidized jobs where applicable.
- Guiding the optimization of CVs, LinkedIn
profiles, and job applications, as well as
preparing for job interviews.
