HIGHLY SKILLED MIGRANTS: A BEHIND-THE-SCENES LOOK AT TRINAMICS

Remco Droog
Commercieel Manager

As part of the team at Trinamics, Anne is involved in supporting our highly skilled migrants who come to the Netherlands to continue their careers. This is a challenging and responsible role in which Anne is involved in various aspects of the immigration process. She is pleased to share some of the key tasks and responsibilities involved, as well as the challenges she encounters.


IND Applications and Visa Extensions
One of my main responsibilities is handling IND applications for highly skilled migrants and potentially their families. This includes applying for visa extensions. It is essential to ensure that all documentation is submitted accurately and timely to prevent delays.

Challenges in Coordinating Visa and Work Permit
Of course, not everything always goes smoothly. Some challenges which we experience are delays in legalizing documents and long waiting times at embassies. Sometimes, employees even decide not to come to the Netherlands, which brings additional complications.

Effective Communication with Knowledge Migrants
Communication is key to success, especially when guiding highly skilled migrants. Occasionally I have contact via a phone call but generally speaking email is the most effective. This helps prevent misunderstandings, especially when it comes to language barriers.

Compliance with Laws and Regulations
To ensure that all procedures comply with both local and international laws and regulations, I utilize various resources. This includes regularly checking the IND website, attending webinars hosted by the expat center, and staying in touch with experts in this field.


Dealing with Unexpected Problems
Unfortunately, unexpected problems can arise. These situations are generally not very complex. We did have one situation where an employee was on vacation, and a colleague was supposed to scan and email the legalized documents. However, the colleague accidentally cut the ribbons, meaning the document was not valid anymore. As a result, the employee had to request a new document, causing a delay.

Why Work through Trinamics?
Trinamics not only provides full support in terms of immigration but also assists in finding suitable jobs and accommodation. We cover visa costs and are recognized as a sponsor for IND applications. Furthermore, we understand that building a social life as a highly skilled migrant can be challenging. Therefore, Trinamics organizes a yearly event to connect knowledge migrants with each other.

In short, supporting highly skilled migrants in their immigration to the Netherlands requires dedication, precision, and a good understanding of both local and international laws and regulations. At Trinamics, we strive to make this transition as smooth as possible to ensure that highly skilled migrants quickly feel at home in their new environment.

In this blog, Anne has tried to provide an overview of the key tasks and challenges in supporting  highly skilled migrants, as well as the reasons why Trinamics is a good choice for them. If you have any questions or would like to learn more about our work, please do not hesitate to contact us!
