In addition, technical studies have become less popular due to the wide range of other courses on offer. As a result of this combination, there is a shortage of engineers in all sectors and this number continues to rise. In order to contribute to solving this problem, we also recruit engineers from inside and outside the European Union.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_col-sm-1 wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"g-cols wpb_row via_flex valign_top type_default stacking_default\"><div class=\"vc_col-sm-3 wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_col-sm-6 wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><div class=\"w-video align_none ratio_16x9 has_iframe\"><div class=\"w-video-h\"><iframe title=\"Youtube video player\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/zxc4futDBtc?autoplay=0&controls=1&origin=https:\/\/tailorminds.com\/en\/&loop=0&mute=0\" allowfullscreen=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/iframe><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_col-sm-3 wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"w-separator size_large\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><section class=\"l-section wpb_row us_custom_44d4a250 height100 height_medium full_height valign_center width_full with_img\"><div class=\"l-section-img\" role=\"img\" aria-label=\"TailorMinds\" data-img-width=\"321\" data-img-height=\"740\" style=\"background-image: url(https:\/\/tailorminds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/TailorMinds-tandwielen-grijs.jpg);background-position: bottom left;background-repeat: no-repeat;background-size: auto;\"><\/div><div class=\"l-section-h i-cf\"><div class=\"g-cols vc_row via_flex valign_middle type_default reversed stacking_default\"><div class=\"vc_col-sm-6 wpb_column vc_column_container witruimte\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><div class=\"wpb_text_column huisblok\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><h2>TailorMinds en engineers<\/h2>\n<p>In 2011 we recruited our first expat from Sweden.
