<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nMilestones<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\u201cOur first milestone was finalizing the technology for the young talent platform. That took some time because it\u2019s very complex,\u201d says Hoek. \u201cThe second milestone was partnering with InHolland University of Applied Sciences. Furthermore, we decided to launch a third offering: a B2B proposition. We decoupled the matching engine\u2014the core of the platform\u2014and enhanced it so that a company can easily integrate it into their own career page without major changes to their existing IT infrastructure. The first client is already connected. Our future milestones are to have 10,000 people on the platform and five additional clients for the employer proposition by the end of this year.\u201d\n\nSpek adds, \u201cWe also want to add another educational institution, because students are the employees of tomorrow.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Major Role of Nyenrode<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\u201cDuring my BBA studies, I learned all the fundamental elements of entrepreneurship, which I now use extensively in business development,\u201d says Hoek. \u201cI have a good understanding of how all the elements are connected. For example, a decision in the commercial area impacts finance and operations. I mainly apply commercial skills in practice, but also my overall understanding of entrepreneurship.\u201d\n\nRoelofs studied for an MSc in Management. \u201cI brought along skills in taking responsibility and managing multiple things at once, as well as contributing to and maintaining a network.\u201d\n\nSpek adds, \u201cI have extensive practical experience, which helps us avoid beginner mistakes in many cases. My Executive MBA in Business & IT and an executive doctorate program at Nyenrode are particularly useful because of the intersection between IT and business.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\u201cSeveral fellow Nyenrode alumni have made valuable contributions to Recrout. They are eager to support and encourage us,\u201d says Roelofs about the contact with alumni. \u201cIn addition, guys from my year club are helping us with IT and finance.\u201d\n\nBut the connection with Nyenrode goes even further: Recrout is based in the Nyenrode Incubator. Hoek explains, \u201cDuring my studies, I had a class with one of the Incubator managers. That\u2019s how we got involved. It\u2019s ideal for young and enthusiastic entrepreneurs. We are among seven start-ups and scale-ups led by Nyenrode alumni.\u201d\n\nRoelofs adds, \u201cThe location is excellent and offers great facilities. It\u2019s an inspiring environment that stimulates our creativity. People motivate and help each other. We can also promote Recrout through, for example, workshops at Nyenrode.\u201d<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
