Their approach is unique in the healthcare industry in Belgium, because they work with consultants who are highly experienced in the sector and because of their multidisciplinary approach.
Within three weeks I will start my internship at HICT. HICT also wants to optimise all the internal operations within the company itself. Therefore, I will optimise their system of proposals to their clients.

Great news: the pharmaceutical enterprise UCB will create 100 extra jobs in their branch at Eigenbrakel!
This news shows a harsh contrast with the flow of dismissals daily put forward in our newspapers. Every week several companies announce reorganization or the dismissals of several employees.
Nevertheless, the news about these extra jobs might come across as a little paradox! Several months ago UCB announced the worldwide dismissal of 2400 employees and 450 out of the 2400 dismissals would be employees of the branch at Eigenbrakel. So if you make a quick calculation, 350 employees will be fired at Eigenbrakel.
However, we should not see this in a quantitative way, but we should look at this from a qualitative perspective. UCB claims to have a logical explanation. These changes fit in their SHAPE-plan, a plan to reorganize UCB’s strategy at the pharmaceutical market. Their goal is to shift their activities to another focus. Furthermore, UCB says that these extra jobs require different competences.

RAAR FM is an Aruban online radio station which presented a “financial crisis top 100” on Monday the 20th of October 2008! RAAR FM aired this program because they are fed up with the buzz around this crisis. Their advice: the best thing to do if you’re tired of a hype, is to make a top 100.
The top consists of 100 songs which concern the financial crisis. All listeners could send in their ideas. Here you can see the top 10 financial crisis songs:
1 Nina Simone – Ain’t got no-I got life
2 Pink Floyd – Money
3 John Lennon – Imagine
4 Boomtown Rats – I don’t like mondays
5 Monty Python – Look on the bright side of life
6 Simply Red – Money’s too tight to mention
7 Trockener Kecks – Het komt nooit meer goed
8 Red Box – For America
9 Stone Roses – Fools gold
10 New Order – True faith
You can check out the complete “top 100 financial crisis” at http://raarfm.com/year_lists/financial_crisis_top_100 !
This top 100 is not just another radio show. It is part of their marketing strategy. This event got a lot of media coverage and even when you googled ‘financial crisis’ during a certain period of time the first one in the list was a link to the website of RAAR FM.
This is not the first time RAAR FM performs a stunt like this. The last time the station aired a top 100, it almost led to a law suit . The station decided to make an “anti-homo top 100”, to act in opposition to BNN’s “homo top 100”. The chairman of the Holebi Federation of the Netherlands (HLBF) deplored this initiative. Although it was meant to be ironical, the HLBF decided to inform the legal instances of gay discrimination.
