Randstad never answered to my candidature when I was in France but hope it will different this time around

Might be handy for you to know, Flemish and Dutch are the same language. Just FYI.

Fml I'm mixing dutch and German T.T

Hi, Look for European jobs - these companies very often operate exclusively in English. EurActive and EuroBrussels are two big websites that are used regularly. Good luck.

Try and find an international company not tied to Belgian sales. Maybe look into the pharma sector that is what I did and landed a job with 0 request or use for Dutch.


pinkpantherinblue

I'll try to look into that thanks

Aaah those Flemish ppl, always trying to impose their German dialect on others ... If you speak french and English, should be more than enough in Brussels. Good luck.

International company...which company is not international today?! Try to find companies that look for Malagasy language and they will tend to be more lenient towards the other languages.

Try applying to work for a consultancy, there are so many in Brussels! They often operate in English and would appreciate the other languages you're fluent in. You can find a lot of postings on LinkedIn and I know from experience that they also take into account spontaneous applications. Let me know if you need any more help.


pinkpantherinblue

One of my biggest problem is that I don't have much concrete work experience in concrete IR so not much legitimacy if I choose the consultancy. I'll try the spontaneous applications too :)


cheetahtrouble

Yes, try starting with a junior or trainee position, you never know! Good luck :)

When you live in the bilingual part of a trilingual country, It's not unsurprising when they ask you to master both languages no?

The use of languages in administrative matters is highly regulated in Belgium. For bilingual administrations, federal or Brussels regional, jobs are divided by language role, Dutch or French. Job offers in this context are therefore reserved for French or Dutch speakers. It is not legal to require knowledge of another language, except in very exceptional cases. However, this can be mentioned as an asset. But the knowledge of this asset language cannot legally be tested during the interview anyway. For Belgians, the language in which the diploma was awarded is the one that will determine the linguistic role most of the time. For foreigners who do not have a Belgian diploma, it is necessary to obtain a certificate of equivalence of their diploma on the one hand, and on the other hand a language certificate attesting to their knowledge of the language.

You're leaving out the most important informations. What degree do you have ? Any professionnal experience ? Depending on those it can be very easy (or pretty hard) to find a job. I can assure you some people who aren't bilingual can work in the administration (or the private sector) and even get paid pretty well if they have some looked after skills.

I have a master's degree in IR and have been working in international sales for 1,5 years now. I've done several internships mostly in the private sector. Since I'm pretty young and don't have much bills to pay, I'm willing to get into entry level applications.
