FAQ

Why does …not work?

Although released in public this website is work in progress. You, as a visitor are invited to make suggestions and/or comments to help improving this site.

Which functionalities are in the making?

AcademicTransfer is currently working on improving the new technology that will facilitate the search for and access to the jobs, hence making the selection of vacancies more personal. At the bottom of this page you will find a complete overview of the planned (new) functionalities.

I would like to post a job

If you would like to post a job, please contact our sales team. They will be happy to assist you and give you all information needed. You can send them an e-mail at sales@academictransfer.nl or call them at +31 (0) 880-282828.

Why should I register?

Registration and the consequential logging in on our website are of course optional. We would like to emphasise that all information on our website is accessible without a login code. Furthermore, all information will be treated confidentially, in accordance with the Dutch privacy laws, and not be handed over to third parties. Registration will, however, allow you to safe your CV, search commands and personal setting and create your own e-mail agent(s).

I have a question concerning a vacancy

AcademicTransfer cannot answer any questions and/or queries about the content of the vacancies posted on our website, since we are not the job-posting holder, but mediators. Any questions and/or queries concerning the content of a vacancy and/or procedures within an organisation must therefore be addressed to the particular job-posting holder.

I have a question about an organisation or job-posting holder

AcademicTransfer is not in the position to render information about the participating organisations and job-posting holders. For general information about a particular organisation we would like to advise you to contact the organisation in question directly. Please visit the employer pages on AcademicTransfer to find their contact details.

I have a question concerning my career

AcademicTransfer only offers vacancies and is not (yet) equipped to render counselling and/or career advice. Therefore, it is not possible to assist people individually in their job search.  On our website you may find links to organisations, that can help you in this area.  We would like to refer you to our link section (feature to be implemented).

I would like to work outside the Netherlands

AcademicTransfer offers limited information concerning living and working outside the Netherlands. Any information we do have may be found at “working abroad”.  The information is compiled out of several sources.  At this point in time we cannot elaborate and, therefore, we would like to advise you to contact your embassy in your country of choice or to contact one of the organisations mentioned on our website. Additional and more detailed information will follow soon.

I would like to work in the Netherlands

AcademicTransfer offers limited information concerning living and working in the Netherlands.

Additional and more detailed information will follow soon.

Vacancies outside the Netherlands

At this point time AcademicTransfer offers mainly vacancies in the Netherlands. However, AcademicTransfer cooperates with several international job boards and is therefore able to publish a wider range of international vacancies on offer. Our preferred partner is www.career.edu.
