Description
My name is Cees, I am Dutch and 26 years old. I live together with my oldest brother and have two more siblings: a brother and sister (I am the youngest). At the moment I'm an organizational psychology master student who is motivated to be busy with things that bring me fulfillment and have meaning. I've found my love for psychology when I started my HR bachelor six years ago.
When I finished my bachelor I realised I wanted to learn so much more about people and behavior. It also ignited a way of thinking about myself. I delved into personal growth and started to focus on what would enrich my life and what would make me a better person. I'm also an avid powerlifter at the moment. I started training 6 years ago and weighed around 67 kilos. I now weigh around 86 kilos and have squatted 235 kilos in competition, benched 142.5 kilos and deadlifted 240 kilos. I've played football (soccer) for fourteen years but wanted something else and found the gym. The gym helped me realise that hard work pays off and has strengthened my resilience a lot. I now give training sessions each week in my gym and love it. I prepare the trainings and coordinate them while I give them. It gives me a lot of fulfillment to see someone have fun and see their progress during their journey.
Now that I'm nearing the end of my master I would love to take the time and move my perspective onto something else. I've been very busy with myself the last six years which has brought me a lot, but now I want to give back to others. My experience in my bachelor and work where I support organisations and employees, and my experience as a trainer, I know that I feel a lot of fulfillment when I'm in a position to set others up to be the best version of themselves. That's why I've signed up to do voluntary work, to help others.

More details about your skills
As a student job I've worked as barista and catering employee for three years. During that job I was responsible for making coffee's and preparing lunch meals from the cart. At that job we had a small team, so communicating well with each other was must. I've learned there to work under pressure and to be a teamplayer.
At the moment I am an HR-employee in a hospital for over 3 years now. I've started as an intern at the recruitment departement and have been a part of different teams now. I've learned at my current job to develop my professional identity and learned how to move about in a big organisation. I've had to communicate well with managers, healtcare directors and direct colleagues. Thinking of ways to improve our processes is always on my mind.
I think over the years I've realised my expertise is connecting with people, seeing what they want/need, and be unbiased to others. Quite often I get back that people feel they can be themselves with me, which I value a lot. I get a lot of energy out of having interactions with others, in any sense of the way.

What else ...
I love being with people and psychology, analysing people and behavior is what I do on a regular. Besides that I love being active and training. To conclude my profile, I think its important to invest into anything that increases the meaning in your life.
