What a reverse recruiter actually does

A traditional recruiter works for the employer and is paid to fill a role. A reverse recruiter works for you: the focus is finding roles that suit you, not filling one company's vacancy.

PBridge works on your side in the Netherlands. We search across job boards and company career pages, tailor your CV for each role, and apply to the ones you approve. Employers hire you directly.

On your side

We are not paid by employers, so the only goal is roles that fit you.

Wider than one agency

We search across major job boards, applicant tracking systems and company career pages.

You stay in control

Nothing is sent without your approval.

How a reverse recruiter fits the way hiring works in the Netherlands

Recruitment agencies in the Netherlands are paid by employers and work from the vacancies they hold. Many roles, especially at smaller companies and in the public sector, never pass through an agency at all; they sit on the company's own careers page or a national job board.

We start from you. Each week we search company careers pages, the job boards people in the Netherlands actually use, and agency adverts together, then you choose which roles we apply to.

Company careers pages

Direct employers in the Netherlands, including the ones agencies never list.

Local job boards

The boards candidates in the Netherlands use, not only LinkedIn.

No exclusivity

Keep working with your own recruiters. Tell us who already has your CV and we avoid sending it twice.

How it works

You approve. We apply. Every week.

How our reverse recruiter works in the Netherlands

Nothing is sent without your approval, and every application is tracked with proof. This is the difference between PBridge and auto-apply tools that fire your CV at everything.

  1. 01 · Onboard once

    Upload your CV and tell us your target roles, locations and salary. We rebuild your CV and send it to you to confirm.

  2. 02 · Approve your weekly list

    At least 50 matched roles in the Netherlands arrive on your dashboard each week. You approve the ones you want in a few minutes.

  3. 03 · We tailor and submit

    For each approved role we tailor your CV and cover letter, complete the employer's application form and submit it in your name.

  4. 04 · You see the proof

    Each submission is logged on your dashboard with a confirmation. Replies and interview requests reach you directly.

Questions

Before you start

Anything else? Email support@pbridgeco.com and our team will come back to you.

Can I use a reverse recruiter and recruitment agencies in the Netherlands at the same time?

Yes. Tell us which agencies and employers already hold your CV so the same role is not applied to twice.

Do you cover roles that are only advertised in Dutch?

Only if you work in Dutch. Otherwise your list is built from roles advertised for English speakers.

How is this different from a recruitment agency?

Agencies work for employers and only put you forward for their own vacancies. We work for you across the whole market.

Do employers pay you?

No. We do not take fees from employers or a share of your salary.

Can you target only English-speaking roles?

Yes. We filter out roles that require Dutch unless you tell us you speak it.

Do you check whether an employer can sponsor?

We prioritise employers on the IND register of recognised sponsors when you need a permit.

Is it allowed to have someone apply for me?

Yes. Applications are made in your name, with your real experience and documents, and you approve every role before we apply. Employers hire you directly.
