Via een kennis van mij die als zzp-er werkt bij MGG werd ik getipt over de vacature van maintenance Engineer. Hij had de video vacature voorbij zien komen en intern ook van de vacature gehoord. Hij wist ook dat ik naar wat anders opzoek was. En zo is het balletje gaan rollen. Ik ben met Jonny van Kempen Maintenance Manager en van vanDaan Recruitment in contact gekomen.

Het traject met Daan was gemakkelijk, eenvoudig met een duidelijk verhaal. Daan wist heel goed waar hij over sprak. Dat haal je ook uit zijn promotie filmpje. Hij doet moeite om te weten waar het over gaat. De tussentijdse gesprekken hebben een positieve bijdrage geleverd in de keuze die ik uiteindelijk gemaakt heb om voor MGG te kiezen.

De contacten met Daan waren heel menselijk. Ik was in de lead om zelf een keuze te maken. Als techneut word ik veel benadert door recruiters die vaak blijven pushen. Dat gevoel heb ik bij Daan helemaal niet gehad. Daan weet waar hij over praat en heeft veel ervaring wat als kandidaat prettig is gedurende sollicitatie gesprekken. Ik zou vanDaan zeker aanraden bij anderen in mijn netwerk.

Als werknemer op de arbeidsmarkt ben je bij vanDaan aan het juiste adres voor het vinden van je volgende uitdaging! Daan Crutzen is iemand met veel ervaring in het veld, en met een hoge mate van mensenkennis. Na het eerste informele kennismakingsgesprek weet Daan dan al heel goed samen te vatten wie je bent, wat je kunt, wat je zoekt en waarom. Niet alleen in het voortraject, maar ook tijdens een sollicitatieprocedure is er veel persoonlijke aandacht om er een succes van te maken! Al met al een relaxte manier van zaken doen, welke ik iedereen kan aanbevelen! Daan, nogmaals bedankt!

As of 2016, we have partnered with vanDaan Recruitment. We experience the recruitment process as positive, effective and results-oriented. Daan immerses himself in the vacancies and our corporate DNA, which means that the candidates proposed are a good match for our wishes and specific requirements of the department(s). Daan is committed to creating great content, which we also hear back from candidates and people within our network and through social media. The blogs are knowledgeable summaries of our substantive conversations and that is greatly appreciated by candidates. The same goes for video job postings. In this, too, we receive compliments from the candidates and our network. It is distinctive, fun to watch and attracts suitable candidates in the right way.

It is difficult in this job market to attract good candidates, so you have to put in serious work and do it thoroughly. This characterizes vanDaan. We jointly draw up a profile and review the job market and potential candidates in advance. We filter our needs against the labor market so that only the right criteria remain. In this way, it makes it a lot easier for us to align and match our U.S. job profiles with the European job market. There is nice chemistry between Daan and the colleagues at Briggs & Stratton in Herten. Daan knows his way around the coffee machine and everyone always responds enthusiastically to his arrival. He could work here like this, it feels familiar! vanDaan works with passion, expertise and commitment, and for me that is why I recommend vanDaan to other employers as well.

My path to Eisenkolb did not initially go through Daan but directly through a former colleague who was already working at Eisenkolb. It was vanDaan’s video job posting that he shared via LinkedIn that triggered me, though. The first conversation was with my former colleague, there the enthusiasm for the position of field service engineer grew immediately. Still, to give someone an unbiased view about me as a person, a second conversation with Daan followed via teams. Then again, even in person, the conversation probably would have lasted even longer than the hour now. Daan is a spontaneous friendly guest. He knows exactly what kind of person a company is looking for. And does so with such passion that your enthusiasm only grows. I have since happily started at Eisenkolb Window and hope never to need Daan again, but I recommend him to everyone.

Een kennis maakte mij opmerkzaam op Daan Crutzen van ‘vanDaan Recruitment’. Na een informeel gesprek stelde Daan mij de vraag of ik interesse zou hebben om als interim professional aan de slag te gaan bij een leuk bedrijf binnen een straal van 20 minuten reisafstand. Dat ‘leuke’ bedrijf is uiteindelijk de firma Schmitz Foam Products uit Roermond geworden. vanDaan Recruitment heeft in relatief korte tijd iemand kunnen aandragen, waarbij de eindklant mee geholpen was. Ik kreeg een tijdelijke job aangeboden om mijn overbrugging te kunnen realiseren.
Door de informele benadering en het professionele netwerk van Daan Crutzen, geeft het mij onbewust een enorm goed gevoel dat alles verloopt, zoals jij dat zou willen. Met name omdat de match tussen de partijen klopt door het uitstekende researchwerk van Daan Crutzen op het gebied van mensenkennis, empathie en daadkracht. Inmiddels zijn we een jaar verder, en het contact is nog altijd van dien aard, dat ik iedereen Daan Crutzen kan adviseren op het gebied van Interim professionals of vacatures die (op vandaag de dag) vaak moeilijk in te vullen zijn.

The apprenticeships within our organization are long and therefore it is important for us to commit people to us for a longer period of time. The basis for this, of course, lies in the recruitment process. Analyzing our needs, mapping our organization, a great campaign, selecting the right candidate and following up on satisfaction. This is exactly what makes VanDaan stand out in my eyes. VanDaan is committed and driven but above all an extension of our organization. He knows our strengths and weaknesses, and can articulate them perfectly to potential candidates. He flawlessly knows how to make matches that fit in terms of “skills” and “mindset,” which forms the basis for long-term employment.

In recent years, VanDaan has mediated several of our positions. With each job posting, Daan makes sure he knows all the details but also keeps an overview. During recruitment, Daan pays attention not only to a candidate’s technical skills, but also to the DNA match with our company. This produces candidates who not only can do the job, but also fit our company. Through clear communication, Daan always keeps us informed about the process. For job openings in the field of supply chain, engineering and what is related to it, we highly recommend Daan.

(van)Daan is a fine company/person to work with. Is always there for you, you can always call him if you have questions, whatever time of day it is. He is genuinely interested in you as a person and especially looks for your own motivations and personal characteristics. The right personality within a team is of paramount importance to him, and Daan manages that very well. He does his utmost to achieve a good match, for you as a job seeker as well as for the client. During the Corona time we connected digitally, but even from a distance there was an instant click. vanDaan is highly recommended to partner with!

Marcel van Os

During the introductory interviews, Daan knew how to properly identify and understand what kind of job/company I was looking for

He was genuinely interested in my ambitions and, by asking the right questions, knew how to match this with the right company

Daan really took the time to guide me throughout the application process which I really appreciated, good and open feedback from his side definitely helped me

Above all, Daan is a pleasant person to work with, the approach is more personal and felt more involved than I was used to with other recruiters

For now, I am very satisfied with my current job, but I definitely recommend anyone looking for another job to contact Daan.

Niels van Dorst

I experienced Daan’s approach as very person-centered, open and honest. He clearly understood in the introductory talks which aspects I value highly, and he also managed to clearly convey which aspects Kulicke & Soffa value. As a result, he set the right expectations for the position and the company with me. That is one of the factors that I have enjoyed and fulfilled working as a P.E. at K&S since April.

Ruim jaar geleden via Daan Recruitment benaderd omdat ik zonder werk zat. Super geholpen; na intake wisten we wat we aan elkaar hadden, en wat ik zocht. Na ruim een week belde Daan dat hij een leuke nieuwe uitdaging had, helaas voor periode van ruim half jaar. Na wat discussie toch begonnen aan nieuwe uitdaging, wil per slot van rekening vast werk. Uiteindelijk na periode van half jaar, ja Daan Recruitment zit niet stil, kwam hij met weer nieuwe uitdaging waar ik nu nog, na proeftijd, inmiddels vast werk. Ondanks mijn leeftijd, ruim 60 jaar, nieuwe super job via Daan Recruitment.

My first phone contact with Daan was an open conversation about my ambitions and background. It turned out that we grew up in the same area and that gave cause for an informal conversation in which we got to know each other better. That immediately characterizes Daan a no-nonsense person who considers it important not only to look at your work resume but especially the person behind it. This was followed by a team interview about my resume in which Dean kept asking about parts. Of this he made an accurate report in which my qualities were clearly shown. When he shared these I was allowed to interview. The interim contact with Daan regarding preparation and progress was pleasant. Daan educated me well about my current job and provided a suitable match. Therefore, I can highly recommend Daan.
