I've walked the same road you're on now

Ten years ago I moved to the Netherlands — and I know exactly how overwhelming it feels. The CV expectations, the indirect communication style, the bureaucracy of BSN and DigiD, the Dutch directness in interviews.

Over the years I helped friends, colleagues, and newcomers through job applications, career transitions, and everyday integration challenges. That experience became the foundation of VANTA Consulting.

Today I work with expats and newcomers across the Netherlands, offering the kind of honest, practical guidance I wish I'd had when I arrived.

Client stories

What clients say

"My CV was rewritten completely and I immediately felt it was right for the Dutch market. I got three interview invitations within two weeks. Yana really understands how recruiters here think."

Maria K.

"The integration support was invaluable. Navigating BSN, DigiD, and huisarts registration felt impossible until Yana guided me through it step by step. I felt so much less alone."

Alex B.

From India — Amsterdam

"Interview prep with Yana was a game changer. She helped me understand the Dutch communication style and gave me confidence I didn't have before. I got the job at my first real interview."
