Very straight forward procedure. I applied through the websit. Was very soon contacted by HR for a first interview. The Pool Manager and the HR made me feel very warm and created a very nice energy during the first interview. Soon I was asked to participate in a second interview with the Project Manager and the Pool Manager. They made me again feel very conveniently and discussed in more detail abou the role. I asked to have a face to face interview at the Van Oord offices and my request was accepted. Can not describe how warm they made me feel. I was given a very good offer but due to personal reasons I had to decline it. The HR and the Project manager contacted me and did their best to find a solution for my personal situation in order to make everything work. I much appreciated their unique friendliness and politeness. They really justified the reputation they have as a very friendly, family like company.

After submitting my application online, I was contacted by a recruiter to schedule an in person interview. I then went to their offices in Rotterdam to meet with members of the team I would potentially join. It was a very good experience overall.
