“I’m working with the most advanced machines in the world. Every day I learn something new. At ASML, you’re always pushing the boundaries of your imagination.”

Where tradition and innovation meet
“Artistic masterpieces, centuries-old windmills, tulip fields and romantic candlelit cafés coexist with visionary architecture, cutting-edge design and phenomenal nightlife.”
- The Lonely Planet
Tulips, windmills and wooden shoes aren’t the only things that the Netherlands is famous for. ASML is helping to ‘put the Netherlands on the map’ as a high-tech hub – we’re currently Europe’s third most valuable company, with a 2018 market value of €75 billion.
The Netherlands is a popular destination for internationals. In 2018, it ranked fifth out of 46 countries in HSBC’s Expat Explorer Survey as a top country for expats, and in 2013, a Unicef report rated children in the Netherlands the happiest in the world.
Nearly 90% of Dutch people speak English, and over 75% speak German, making it easy for internationals to adjust to life in the Netherlands.
Moving to the Netherlands
At ASML, we understand what it’s like moving to a new country. We offer help with relocation, which includes temporary housing, moving services for furniture and other belongings, and a relocation budget for the various costs associated with the move.
The Holland Expat Center South can help you and your family to settle into your new living and working environment.

What is pre-employment screening?
Pre-employment screening is one of the final steps in the selection process for both jobs and internships in the Netherlands. This takes place after the candidate has accepted the offer and agreed to begin the screening process. Pre-employment screening ensures we meet legal obligations and protect ASML assets as well as its employees and contractors.
As part of the screening process, we will check information related to identity and education as provided by the candidate, public or government-released sanction lists, and social media sources. For certain vacancies in the Finance, Procurement, IT, Sales, Security and Airfreight sectors, additional checks regarding the resume, references, criminal record and credit risk may be performed.
