    My alma mater! Always interesting abroad having to explain you are not two people sharing a business card and no, I don’t have more than one Dr. Degree either. Drs. or ‘doctorandus’ is latin for ‘he (she) to be promoted to doctor’.
    I’ll leave the rest up to you Jovie.

    I'm planning to Move to the Netherlands. I'm American. How does it work with taxation? I know I still have to pay USA taxes and the Netherlands. I wish I could talk to someone, who can help me to understand the complications of living abroad with a different nationality.

    Zag ik jou nou bij die persconferentie op het songfestival? En dan namens Tsjechië? Misschien was dat je droombaan dan. Push ze maar flink dat ze op Nederland stemmen zaterdag.

    The sign you're not going to get the job is when the interviewer asks inappropriate questions.

    Is that you dancing with the Moldovian musicians at Eurovision in the video of 10 May at the YouTube Channel 'Songfestival Update'? The fragment starts at 02:55 min.

    Am I going crazy or did I just see you at the press conference in Turin after the first semi final of the ESC? You asking our S10 a question! Did you announce this here somewhere and I missed it or came this adventure so suddenly on your path that there was no time? Great to see you there!

    How the hell did you get a press pass for the Eurovision Song contest?

    Congratulations! Sound advice. When I was still working/ job hunting, I applied the same kinds of alterations to my CV. That was many moons ago, but employers need to know that you at least write with their job offer/ firm in mind.

    And then in your first week, some random colleague (out of the 3000 you now have) recognised you from your video's 😉 Once again, welcome at the 'EUR'!

    I guess you've noticed that if you go up the Euro Tower that no matter how high up you go you can still smell the Chinese Restaurant that is near it. If the restaurant is still there.

    Dutch (and I guess worldwide, but I've no comparison) HR flunkies are often idiots… Don't take it personally.
    I've been rejected for a job for the sole reason that I wasn't married with children… Actual proficiency was of no interest to the HR flunky, nor was the fact that the actual people who were interviewing me about that were impressed and wanted to have me hired.

    This goes on a lot especially if you were initially invited for the interview process by someone outside of HR. They get grumpy at the people inviting you and take it out on them by rejecting everyone that wasn't invited by them. Not just I have that experience but a lot of people I know do.

    CV tuning can indeed be important. This is because the screening of incoming applications is usually done by automated processes, or by interns with no actual knowledge about the subject material relevant for the job.
    Those people or systems are fed a list of keywords and phrases, and if those aren't all found in the CV it's automatically rejected. Only the few percent that passes that screening is even sent to someone with subject matter knowledge (if then, it may go through another screening by an HR manager, cutting out even more candidates).
    The larger and more bureaucratic the organisation, the more important this becomes.

    As a contractor, when trying to find new contracts, we tune our CVs for every single application, adding and removing things as needed while not slipping into lies (obviously). This can take hours or days for each application.

    btw, you got lucky you weren't instantly rejected for writing more than 200 words. Again, often a first screening for such things is fully automated, with automatic rejection for such things.
    I guess they were impressed enough with you already that that assessment was taken as a formality only, a box to be ticked. But even then it can fail you instantly and nothing the hiring manager can do about it "because it's HR policy".
    I've had something like that happen more than once. Being all but offered a job by a department manager, only to have HR block it because I "failed" their "assessment" or "suitability test" (which isn't, it's a disguised and fundamentally flawed IQ test that's almost impossible to pass for a lot of people because of the way it is structured, not because they're stupid).
