Make team fit part of the conversation.

Werkvolk publishes vacancies from Belgian employers' own careers pages, with the source named. Skilled workers who show interest in such a vacancy reach you through your own application channel. Claim your company page and that interest shows up in your portal from then on, with reviewed matches and chat.
Use Werkvolk to attract and review candidates, then continue in the tools your business relies on.

Already working with an ATS?
In development: connections with Jobtoolz, Teamtailor and Workday. Your ATS remains the place for selection and hiring. Werkvolk adds a mobile vacancy channel. We are building vacancy import and candidate follow-up, with capabilities that vary by system. Not generally available yet.

In development: connections with Jobtoolz, Teamtailor and Workday. Confirm which features are available for your system before you start. Contracts, onboarding and payroll stay in your existing process.
Give your vacancy a public home and reach candidates through Werkvolk and your own channels.
In the Werkvolk app
Skilled workers discover your workplace, pay and shifts and show interest in the jobs that suit them.
Available profile and travel information help assess the fit.
Distribution through VDAB
Eligible vacancies can also be shared through the VDAB connection, subject to its publication requirements.
Werkvolk is an official partner of VDAB.
Its own public vacancy page
Every vacancy gets a page you can share and search engines can discover.
JobPosting structured data helps search engines understand your vacancy.
Ready for Google job search
Your vacancy page includes structured job information for Google’s job search experience.
Google determines indexing and visibility; placement is not guaranteed.
Shareable via WhatsApp and social media
Every vacancy has a shareable link. Skilled workers share your vacancy in their network, so you also reach people who do not know the app yet.
Candidates share straight from the app.
Our advertising traffic works for you
Werkvolk invests continuously in ads that bring skilled workers to the platform. That large advertising traffic automatically works for your vacancy too.
Ads land directly on the vacancy pages, including yours.
Partner of technical schools and training centres
Werkvolk has partner agreements with technical schools, where we give sessions ourselves, and with training centres.
That brings skilled workers in training straight to the platform.
Publishing unlimited vacancies and viewing interest counts are free. The first 2 reviewed matches are free across your account, with no time limit. You choose a paid plan for further matching: €149 per vacancy per month, or a bundle from €449 for 4 vacancies. Annual matching plans are prepaid for 12 months at the price of 10. Prices exclude VAT. See the pricing page for included features, extras and terms.
Where do vacancies on Werkvolk come from?
Employers post vacancies on Werkvolk themselves. We also publish vacancies from Belgian employers’ own careers pages, naming the source. We do not retrieve these vacancies from VDAB. If your company is already on Werkvolk, you can claim its company page.
What is the difference between interest and a reviewed match?
Interest means a candidate has liked your vacancy. That interest may still be awaiting review and is not the same as a match reviewed by Werkvolk. You can see interest counts without a paid plan. The first 2 reviewed matches are free across your account; you choose a plan for further matching.
What is an ATS?
ATS stands for Applicant Tracking System: software for managing vacancies, applications and candidates, and tracking the steps in your hiring process.
When will I receive matches?
It depends on the role, location, conditions and candidate interest. After publication, candidates can discover your vacancy. Interest can still be awaiting review; there is no guaranteed candidate count or delivery time.
Will posting extra vacancies automatically increase my bill?
No. Publishing extra vacancies stays free and they keep collecting likes; you see how much interest they get. You only pay separately for the vacancies you activate matching for beyond your plan’s slots: €149 per vacancy per month (excl. VAT) or €1,490 paid annually upfront. When your plan is full, you choose which vacancies get a slot.
How does culture-fit matching work?
Where personality and culture information is available, it adds context to a match and helps you prepare the conversation. It supports your judgement; it does not guarantee performance or retention. Culture Suite is the separate service for team surveys and organisation-wide culture analysis. Culture Suite is included up to the participant allowance in Business and Group; other plans can add it.
Can Werkvolk connect to our ATS?
In development: connections with Jobtoolz, Teamtailor and Workday. We are building a workflow where you review vacancies from your ATS before publication. Import does not activate matching: paid matching requires a separate choice and budget. Depending on the system, we plan anonymous review or a handoff after a match. Identity and CV are shared only when the match and permission allow it; messages can be relayed through Werkvolk. These connections are not generally available yet. Talk to us about what is tested and available for your system. Your team keeps control of selection and hiring.
How is Werkvolk different from a staffing agency?
Werkvolk helps you recruit directly. You review matches and handle the conversation and employment relationship yourself. You pay for your chosen platform plan, without a placement commission. An agency can offer additional services such as temporary employment and payroll; compare the responsibilities as well as the price.
Why use Werkvolk alongside a job board?
Candidates discover your workplace, pay, shifts and travel context in the app. You get reviewed matches with reasons and can move directly into chat and interview planning. Your vacancy also has a public page you can share through your own channels.
Can our whole recruiting team use Werkvolk?
Yes. Invite colleagues without per-seat fees and manage access to your company. Share private recruiter notes, compare candidates and work together on conversations and interviews.
Can we manage several locations or companies?
Yes. Manage multiple companies or sites, their vacancies and branding, and switch between them in the portal. Choose a matching plan for the number of vacancies you want active at the same time.
Where can we recruit?
Across Belgium. Set the actual workplace so candidates can consider the commute and you can review available travel information. Candidate availability varies by role and region.
What can vacancy insights tell us?
Follow reach, views and interest, review rejection reasons and monitor response and hiring times. The information available depends on activity and the candidate feedback you receive. Detailed vacancy insights are included with paid matching.
How do we manage candidate data?
Company access and recruiter permissions control who can work with your candidates. Candidate exports record your acknowledgement of the data-use conditions. Our privacy policy explains how data is processed; contact us for your procurement or data-protection review.
Can a temp or recruitment agency use Werkvolk?
No. Werkvolk is for employers who hire themselves. Temp, recruitment and secondment agencies cannot post vacancies or approach candidates; such accounts are not verified. That way skilled workers know they are talking to the employer directly.
