ZUID-LIMBURG BUSINESS PLAZA - EDITIE 3-<strong>2021</strong><br />
I was tired of studying at a Dutch University, almost finished with my studies, and<br />
looking for a way to enter the labour market in an international setting, possibly<br />
avoiding unpaid internships – which are unfortunately very common these days.<br />
During a job interview, I was suggested to look into the EYE program, and indeed it<br />
offered me a great possibility as not only I found a great job opportunity but also a<br />
chance to enrich my international educational/professional background.<br />
Where did you travel?<br />
It is kind of a strange situation for me as I travelled back to my home country, Italy,<br />
after living and studying in the Netherlands for the past two and a half years.<br />
