The NY 400 Job Swap is an unique experiment in transatlantic cooperation. Citizens of New York and Amsterdam of every background and means of employment are invited to participate in trading places for a week, to deliver new perspectives and reveal profound connections between residents of the two cities.

Participant pairs will be chosen to represent the richest possible range of jobs, traditional as well as unorthodox, in order to highlight the enterprising spirit and strong work ethic shared by both New Yorkers and Amsterdammers. In the beginning of September 2009 colleagues on both sides of the Atlantic will get to know each other’s work and culture. And you can participate!

The JobSwap website including blogs starts this summer.
