Skills matter more than your CV

Why we do not select on a CV but on what you can do, and how the skills table works.

11 October 2026 · WorkForce-NL

A CV tells you where you have worked. It says little about what you can do right now. That is why at WorkForce-NL skills count ten times more than a CV. We do not shuffle CVs: we look for the professional who fits the assignment.

How does it work?

  1. You sign up. You leave your details and indicate in which region you are looking for an assignment.
  2. We make your skills table together. As soon as we see a suitable candidate, we go through your skills with you. For each skill you indicate your level: basic, intermediate, advanced or expert.
  3. We make a skills table for the assignment. With the client as well, we make a table per assignment with the skills that are needed.
  4. We put them side by side. That way you and we can see what the assignment asks for and what you can do, before anyone is proposed.

Why is this better?

  • For the freelancer: you are approached for assignments that really fit your experience, not just your job title.
  • For the client: you know in advance where you stand, and get carefully selected professionals instead of a pile of CVs.
  • For the project: fewer surprises on the first working day.
