What this means for your job search

Most Dutch employers cannot hire a non-EU worker, because sponsoring a visa requires IND recognition. TomTom has that recognition — so a role there is one of the comparatively few that can actually lead to a highly skilled migrant permit. That alone makes it worth prioritising if you need sponsorship.

The catch

Being on the register is permission, not a promise. It does not mean TomTom has open roles, hires internationals for every team, or will sponsor every position. Treat the register as a filter that tells you who can sponsor — then verify on their careers page and in the interview.

How to approach TomTom

Don't wait for a "visa sponsorship available" line in the ad — sponsors rarely advertise it. Instead: apply to roles that fit, then raise sponsorship early once there's mutual interest. A CV in the Dutch format lands far better with Dutch recruiters — use the free template before you apply.
