Application procedure

• Apply

  We carefully review your application and within a week we will let you know if you are invited for an interview.

• First interview

  This is an introductory meeting with someone from the team and Recruitment.

• Second interview

  This will be a more in-depth interview in which we asses you having the required skills. Again you will have the chance to ask us (difficult) questions.

• Offer

  In general two interviews will be enough to get a good image of each other. If that’s the case and we do like each other just as much (or maybe even more) as when we first met, we would love to welcome you as a newborn OGD’er!
