WhatsApp for working abroad – why we use it to stay in touch

In the Netherlands and Germany, WhatsApp is the backbone of everyday communication – from team chats at work to landlords. It is our main channel too: you apply here, you receive your offer here, and you can reach us here while you are abroad. Here is why, and how to get started in two minutes.

01 Why WhatsApp?

In Hungary many people use Messenger, but in the Netherlands and Germany WhatsApp is the most widely used messaging app: employers, team leaders and often landlords organise everything on it. Using it from day one makes life abroad much smoother.

Fast replies

No waiting days for an e-mail – we respond quickly and call you back if needed.

Apply with one message

Even without a CV: tell us what interests you and we discuss the details by phone.

Documents with one photo

Certificates, driving or forklift licences – a photo is enough, no scanner needed.

Free, also on Wi-Fi

The app is free, and on Wi-Fi you can message and call from abroad at no cost.

Voice messages and location

In a hurry? Send a voice message. On arrival we share the exact address and map.

Reachable while abroad

Questions at work or at the accommodation? Same chat, Hungarian-speaking support.

02 How we stay in touch

04 How to recognise that it is really us

Unfortunately, there are many scams around jobs abroad. That is why you should know what we do – and what we never do.

What we do

  • We only message you from +36 20 543 4920
  • We send all terms in writing before departure
  • We introduce ourselves and call back on request
  • We only ask for documents for a specific offer

What we never ask for

  • Money, deposits or a “booking fee”
  • Your 6-digit WhatsApp verification code
  • Card numbers, PIN codes or passwords
  • Forwarding your ID documents to strangers

If anyone asks for any of these in our name, do not reply – and let us know at the number above.
