"I finally understood what Dutch interviewers actually want. Not more experience — a different way of presenting what I already had."
Your experience may differ.

Common Questions
Expats, international graduates, and non-native English speakers targeting careers in the Netherlands — in tech, finance, consulting, and multinational corporations.
All sessions are online via video call, which works well for professionals across Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Eindhoven, Groningen, and those still outside the Netherlands.
The discovery call is usually available within a few days. Emma will reply to your contact form within one business day to schedule a time.
Dutch employers value directness, substance over presentation, and flat-hierarchy thinking. Over-selling is often perceived negatively. The coaching teaches you how to be genuinely compelling in that specific context.
Sessions are conducted in English, which is the primary working language at most multinational and tech companies in the Netherlands. For fully Dutch-language roles, Emma can advise on preparation but sessions remain in English.
