Sidnei’s story

For some people, moving to a different country is nothing new. One of those people is Sidnei Cardoso. After almost six years in the UK, working in hospitality, he knew what it meant to live and work abroad. But he was ready for something new. That’s when he decided to move to the Netherlands.

“I decided to come to the Netherlands, because I felt like it was time for a change.”

Getting started with HOBIJ

From the moment Sidnei arrived, HOBIJ made sure everything went smoothly.

“When I first came here, HOBIJ was really helpful. They picked me up from the airport, brought me to the office, arranged my BSN, and sorted everything out. They made me feel integrated at work.”

That’s something we like to hear. We take care of housing, transport, and all the practical details, so you can focus on work and starting your new life. Got questions? Our job coaches are there to answer them for you and make you feel supported.

Never stop growing

Sidnei has been working at Sligro for quite some time now. A year and six months, to be exact. He works in folders and picking but is always looking for opportunities to grow and improve himself further. And with that mindset? We’re happy to help him achieve his goals!

“A typical day at Sligro starts with a coffee, and then I pretty much see wherever they need me the most. Now, I’m actually trying to get a reach truck license. HOBIJ is helping me with that as well.”

Why Sidnei recommends HOBIJ

After such a long time with HOBIJ, Sidnei knows what he’s talking about. And he’s sure about his choice.

“So far, it’s been quite good. I would definitely recommend HOBIJ. Especially if you want to improve yourself, make some money, and live the life of an immigrant. If you take care of HOBIJ, they will take care of you back.”
