What Is Talent Acquisition

Talent acquisition is a broad and complex term. That’s why it’s sometimes hard to pinpoint one universal definition. Talent acquisition at Blue Lynx encompasses three main services: recruitment, contracting, and executive search. Explore the page below for a comparison and more information about each.

Contracting (Uitzenden)

Within the colourful vocabulary of talent acquisition, you will see contracting under many different names. Whether it’s uitzenden, detachering, employee leasing or temping, this is one of the most common hiring practices in the Netherlands. Each temping agency here follows the legislation of the ABU CLA (The Collective Labour Agreement for Temporary Workers). So does Blue Lynx. We employ contingent workers (uitzendkrachten) in contracting phases A (temporary) , B (fixed term)  or C (permanent), depending on your needs.

Contracting to Perm - (Deta-Vast)

This employment method is the best of both worlds – contracting and recruitment merged into one. This service is perfect for business clients who want to take away the risk of employing people directly without a long trial period. The contracting duration via Blue Lynx is 1040 worked hours. Thereafter, the contractor becomes an in-house staff member employed directly by the client.
