Nail Your Dutch Interview
A small group session for international professionals in the Netherlands - Tuesday September 16, 19:00 to 22:00
You have probably been closing job tabs because of the Dutch requirement...' through to 'That is a learnable skill.
And it is exactly what this session is built around
What People Are Saying
'I kept up with B2 speakers as the only A2 speaker for 3 hours, that's a win.'
— Participant, edition two
It showed me I understand more than I thought
— Participant, edition one
It gave me courage to try Dutch during interviews
— Participant, edition one
92% of edition one participants left satisfied. Not because their Dutch became perfect. Because something shifted in how they understood the situation they had been avoiding
'What is different about September 16'
More simulation
Both editions told us the same thing: more practice, less instruction. More than half of September 16 is dedicated to real interview simulation.
Level Screening
We ask your Dutch level before the session so Brenda can prepare for the actual group in the room. There is no right or wrong answer.
Evening Format
People told us morning sessions did not fit their schedule. September 16 runs 19:00 to 22:00.
About Brenda Isken
Brenda has spent twenty years across HR and hospitality. She has sat on both sides of the interview table. She knows what Dutch employers are actually listening for, and she knows that the candidates who do best are rarely the most fluent. They are the ones who know what to do when they lose a word.'
“ ‘The candidates who did best in Dutch interviews were rarely the most fluent. They were the ones who knew what to do when they lost a word. Confidence and effort count. Not perfect Dutch.”
What the session covers
This is not a language class. It is three hours of targeted preparation built around the real situation
The vocabulary that comes up in actual Dutch interviews, not textbook exercises
Frameworks for answering questions like ‘Vertel eens over jezelf without freezin’
What Dutch interviewers notice and what they are willing to forgive
What Dutch interviewers notice and what they are willing to forgive
By the end, you will not have perfect Dutch. You will have a clear understanding of what Dutch employers are actually evaluating, and a genuine reason to believe you are closer to that standard than you thought.
