Hi everyone,
I’m trying to figure out my realistic career options in the Netherlands and would really appreciate some honest advice from people who work here.

My background is:
Bachelor’s degree in Primary School Teaching from a university outside of Europe.

I’m starting an HBO Master in International Social Work at HAN University of Applied Sciences.
I’m currently learning Dutch and I’m willing to get to a professional

I don’t have a Bachelor’s degree specifically in Social Work.
My main question is: Could I realistically find a professional job in the Netherlands after completing the HBO Master’s, despite my Bachelor’s being in teaching?

I’m particularly interested in jobs related to social work, NGOs, youth work, community work, integration/migration, social services, or similar fields.
I understand that some regulated social-work positions may require a specific Bachelor’s degree or professional registration. What I’m wondering is whether employers generally care about the specific Bachelor’s subject if I have a relevant HBO Master’s and good Dutch, or whether my background would still be a major barrier

Hello, I'm a 22M from Cyprus who came to study here. Looking forward to meet new people and go coffee shop hopping/bar hopping. I came 4 days ago.
I don't like conservatives
Shoot me a message :)

II’m an EU investor with a long-term horizon. My current allocation is mostly broad equity index funds (EuroStoxx 60 and S&P 500/Nasdaq) plus a gold position.

I’ll soon have a lump sum available that is large relative to my existing portfolio and I’m interested in learning how investors generally think about deploying new capital in this situation.
