One vacancy, visible everywhere
Everything below is included in the price of your vacancy. Reach costs you nothing extra.
Published on VDAB
Your vacancy appears on VDAB automatically, the official channel of the Flemish labour market. No need to enter it there a second time.
Visible in Google Jobs
We submit your vacancy as structured data, so it shows up in Google's job results when someone searches nearby.
Matched in the Werkvolk app

Our advertising traffic works for you
Werkvolk advertises broadly across the Limburg labour market. That large advertising traffic works for your vacancy too, without you needing an ad budget of your own.

Frequently asked questions
Frequently asked questions
Find an answer quickly
What does it cost to find staff through Werkvolk?
Your first hire is currently free. After that you pay 149 euro per 4 weeks per vacancy, with a minimum of 12 weeks per activated vacancy and cancellable every 4 weeks after that. There is no placement fee and no commission on the salary of the person you hire.
Is this a temp agency?
No. A temp agency employs the worker itself and charges a margin on the hourly rate. With Werkvolk you hire directly: the candidate joins you, on your contract, on your terms. We only handle the sourcing and the pre-screening.
Does my vacancy also appear on VDAB?
Yes. Your vacancy is published on VDAB automatically and we submit it as structured data so it also appears in Google Jobs. On top of that our own advertising traffic works for your vacancy, and we reach skilled workers through our partner agreements with technical schools and training centres. All of that is included in the price.
How quickly will I have candidates?
As soon as your vacancy is active it enters the matching stream in the app. Candidates with a strong match see it at the top. The sharper your must-haves, the more targeted the suggestions.
Do you only work in Limburg?
Our candidate pool is strongest in Belgian Limburg and that is where we focus. You can post a vacancy for a workplace outside the province, but the supply of matches there will be smaller for now.
