Samenvatting
Why should you get hired? You getting a job shouldn’t be based only on your experiences, achievements, GPA, type of prestigious university you graduated from or your nationality. Look beyond those standard requirements and consider your uniqueness as well as your abilities and capabilities. Everyone has got a unique characteristic in them and what it takes to work; even the person people think is dumb could be an asset to a firm. Why? Because he or she being dumb is what make him or her unique. Give no excuses as to why you cannot get a job, don’t let anything stop you; not even the high rise in unemployment as a result of COVID-19 should stop you from finding a job. Dare to be hired will show you how the author, a new mum with a career gap, persevere to get a job in a foreign country, and how Jessica fought through to the finishing point of an interview conducted partly in Dutch when she had little knowledge about the language. Whether you’re a fresh graduate looking for your first job, a foreigner seeking new opportunities or a student searching for an internship abroad, this book is made for you. It will inspire, prepare and advise you throughout your job search.
