معنی
Searching for employment.
زمینه فرهنگی
The 'Poldermodel' means the Dutch job market is very network-oriented. Saying you are 'op zoek' is an invitation for others to help you. In Flanders, the term 'werkzoekende' is used very frequently in official contexts, perhaps even more than in the Netherlands. On LinkedIn, the phrase is often replaced by 'Open to Work' (in English) or 'Op zoek naar een nieuwe uitdaging' to sound more positive. Expats often struggle with the 'naar' preposition. Native speakers find this a very 'foreign' mistake, so mastering it helps you sound much more integrated.
Be Specific
Always add the field you are looking in, e.g., 'op zoek naar werk in de horeca'.
Avoid 'Voor'
Never say 'op zoek voor'. It's the most common mistake for English speakers.

سوالات متداول
5 سوالIt is better to say 'Ik zoek werk' or 'Ik ben op zoek naar werk'. Adding 'naar' to the verb 'zoeken' is technically incorrect in this context.
Yes, 'werk' is uncountable (employment/work in general), while 'baan' is countable (a specific job).
It is neutral. You can use it with friends, but also in a job interview.
You say: 'Ik ben niet meer op zoek naar werk' or 'Ik heb werk gevonden'.
In this context, there is no plural. If you mean 'works of art', it's 'werken', but for employment, it's always 'werk'.
