YouConnect YouConnect is an independent Belgian recruitment firm specialised in: Legal, HR & Compliance profiles Our world is increasingly connected. We connect people.

Yet building a meaningful and sustainable career seems to become tougher every day. Companies face the same issue: candidates could be everywhere, but finding thรฉ candidate who will make a true difference, is a considerable task. YouConnect is a legal recruitment firm that wants to bridge that gap. We connect people to jobs that theyโ€™ll love and excel in. And we bring companies in touch with people who are excellent in their job, but who will also contribute massively to the organization as a whole. Because we believe these are the foundations of a durable relationship. We donโ€™t just connect candidates to jobs.

Represented by Sylvie Gerlo and Stรฉphanie Verhaegen, we partnered with the event for the third time, continuing to deepen our understanding of the work behind the compliance roles we recruit for.

Every year, we invite our freelance community to join us at Het TheaterFestival, a tradition we always look forward to. And once again, this yearโ€™s edition did not disappoint.

Together, we experienced Chapters of Celebration, an energetic mix of dance and music by director Benjamin Abel Meirhaeghe, composer Wouter Deltour and Muziektheater Transparant. A performance that takes the celebrating body on a journey through time, bringing people together across generations, cultures and styles.

Something we could certainly relate to. Our freelance community is not only about working together, but also about staying connected, sharing experiences and making time to celebrate along the way.

And judging by the standing ovation, we werenโ€™t the only ones who felt that way.

What makes legal recruitment different when your recruiter has actually worked in legal?

Because finding the right person goes beyond matching a CV with a job description. We take the time to understand the business, the legal team, its challenges and dynamics and what will make someone successful within that specific environment.

And while recruitment is serious business, we are fortunate to do it with a team that brings plenty of energy, humour and personality to the table.

After a well-deserved summer break for most consultants, our team is back, recharged and ready for what comes next.

Whether you are ready to hire, need flexible legal expertise, or are simply exploring what the market could offer before you have formal approval: feel free to reach out to Stรฉphanie Verhaegen (perm), Paulien Stuer (legal interim) or any other colleague for an informal conversation.
