YOUR INFORMATION, YOUR CHOICE

Before you sign up: what Vakbrug shows, and to whom

Before you answer any questions, here is what each level means.

Level 1 · Public profile

Trade or skill; study program and level; verification status; region (district in Suriname, country outside Suriname); and availability. Your name is optional. Anyone visiting Vakbrug, including companies, can see this only if you choose a public profile.

Example: “Electrician · training level 2 · Wanica · available now.”

Level 2 · Private details

Name, phone, email, credential and certificate facts, work history, current or previous employer, CV, and right-to-work information. A company sees these only after you approve that company’s request, or after you accept a written offer if you choose offer mode.

Example: a company asks to contact you about one named role; you decide yes or no.

Level 3 · Never shown to companies

Vakbrug will never show companies ID or passport numbers, identity/passport/good-conduct/birth-document uploads, your exact date of birth, or your home address. Companies may see only an age range.

Example: your date of birth stays private; a company may see “under 18” or an adult age range.
