Interview
Ik had me via hun website aangemeld als een net afgestudeerde. Ze reageerden binnen enkele dagen om te zeggen dat mijn profiel was gekozen voor een interview. Daarna moest ik echter echt contact opzoeken om zo vroeg mogelijk een interview te plannen. Tot slot werd ik geïnterviewd over de telefoon (wat vreemd was gezien het feit dat ik in NL was). Het interview is net zoals ze het hebben vermeld op hun carrièrepagina.

De enige verrassing was dat de interviewer aan het einde vroeg welke locatie mijn voorkeur had. Op dat moment kreeg ik pas te weten dat het interview geldt voor elke locatie wereldwijd.
