Meet our International trainee: Marieke de Kort
Dear all,
I hereby would like to take the opportunity to introduce myself. I am Marieke de Kort, 26 years old and trainee for several public authorities in the department of Brabant the Netherlands. During my traineeship I work in three different projects (each six months), this can either be for the department, a community or the water board.
I started the 1st of March for my second trainee period of six moths as international trainee for PRIMO Europe. My main focus is to take care of the web survey and the in depth interviews related to that, analysing and reporting. Secondly I support the board of PRIMO Europe with launching two newsletters and assist in preparation of and support for the meetings of the board of PRIMO Europe. An exiting and interesting job, since I like to develop my skills in various disciplines.
I received my Bachelor of Business Administration in Facility Management from the Hague University and my Master of Science in Sociology from the University of Amsterdam. For the past one and a half year (six months as a trainee) I worked for two communities as a policy advisor in social affairs, welfare and education.
My free time is being spent on show/musical dance, classic ballet, playing hockey, walking the dog and reading.
I look forward working with you during the oncoming period and meeting you all in Strasbourg.
Best regards,
Marieke de Kort
