On 1 January 2018 the Clingendael Institute employed '94 members of staff' . On 1 January 2019 this number increased to 100. Not only did the number of staff increase, but there was also a change in the number of foreign staff and interns. Clingendael employed a record of 11 different nationalities in 2018.

Despite the competitive job market, the Clingendael Institute still attracts a high-quality and high-quantity response to our vacancy and job announcements. This resulted in 23 new hires for regular jobs, while 24 university students completed internships at the Institute in 2018. Recruitment is primarily carried out through our website, our weekly newsletter, social media platforms such as LinkedIn and through our own staff and interns.

The management promoted training for corporate staff in 2018. This resulted in a large number of employees participating in skills-oriented training. We plan to pursue this permanent education in subsequent years.

The HR Department has continued the digitalisation process and plans to eliminate paper as much as possible in 2019.
