Randstad`s in-house legal community, Randstad Legal, for example, supports a fantastic initiative from the municipality of Amsterdam, the Netherlands: “Project Foreign Lawyers”. This project helps refugee lawyers, i.e. people who have studied law and/or worked as lawyers abroad, to find an internship. Embarking on a career in the Dutch legal system is difficult without a Dutch law degree. The municipality of Amsterdam supports status holders who are refugees allowed to stay in the Netherlands by offering intensive language programmes focusing on legalese, interview training and traineeship search assistance to gain practical work experience in the Netherlands.

Randstad Legal participated in a flash meeting in the afternoon where the relevant candidates were interviewed and is currently discussing with the municipality of Amsterdam how Randstad Legal can contribute to this project. Our recruitment teams are primarily comprised of former lawyers, paralegals and litigation consultants who use their insight and intuition to match your business needs with the right professional and achieve the greatest impact. Randstad`s legal community is led by General Counsel James King and Deputy General Counsel Marianne Scholten and consists of the legal department of Randstad Holding listed and the local legal departments of operating companies (Randstad operates in 39 countries). Around 170 lawyers work for Randstad worldwide.

In this way, we hope to be able to share our knowledge and experience with students and learn how Randstad Legal can meet their needs/support them in their choice of studies.

Diversity and inclusion benefit society as a whole according to one of our core values: the simultaneous promotion of all interests. Randstad has several D&I-related policies to provide guidance to all members of the organization. In order to raise awareness of the importance of the subject, we repeatedly draw the attention of our employees to it in different ways; via D&I webinars, a D&I intranet page, and a D&I video. Your email address will not be published. Required fields are marked with a *Randstad is very selective in selecting candidates for customer presentations. We will only place professionals with the knowledge and experience to deliver immediate value to our client organizations. Of course, while words are certainly important, the key question is what we are doing to put our D&I vision and values into practice.

Within Randstad, many initiatives have been launched around the world to support diversity and inclusion in the broadest sense. Some are internal and others are in collaboration with other organizations. E-discovery is critical to successful litigation, but it also requires a lot of resources. For this reason, Randstad has built a network of experienced lawyers who are experts in identifying, collecting and producing electronic information.

We received a very warm welcome and had a great afternoon, playing bingo, enjoying cream waffles and chatting with the residents. Ready to start hiring?
