Yes, your 15 years of work experience will strongly improve your chances for internships and job opportunities as a student abroad.
Employers in countries like Sweden and the Netherlands value practical, relevant experience. This background shows you can apply knowledge in real-world settings, making you a competitive candidate for roles both during and after your studies.
To make the most of your experience, highlight your key achievements on your resume and actively network with industry professionals. If you need tailored guidance, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
