Your application and getting started.
You know in advance which steps to expect, who you will meet and what we will discuss. Once you join, we provide a clear introduction and support.

- 01Explore and apply
Choose the role that fits you
Read not only the job requirements but also how we work together and which values matter to us. Apply with your CV and briefly explain what motivates you and why the role appeals to you. Speculative applications are welcome too.
- 02Initial review
We consider your application carefully
We review your experience, motivation and potential contribution to the team. You receive a personal response as soon as possible. If we do not see a sufficient match, we say so clearly.
- 03An initial conversation
Start with a quick call
Where helpful, we begin with a short telephone conversation. We discuss expectations about the role, availability, working hours and practical matters before meeting in more detail.
- 04Meet us in Rotterdam
Coffee, a good conversation and a look around the office
At our office in the Mandela building, we discuss what you are looking for, your strengths and what the role involves in practice. You immediately see where and with whom you might work. Thoughtful, critical questions are very welcome.
- 05Explore your expertise
Show us how you think and work
Depending on the role, we discuss previous work, a customer question or a short practical case. We are not looking for a trick or a textbook answer; we want to understand how you organise information, make decisions and develop a useful approach.
- 06Meet the team or shadow us where relevant
Experience the collaboration first-hand
For some roles, you meet more colleagues or shadow us for part of a day. This gives you an honest view of the work and lets us both experience how we work together. If we use an assignment, we explain its purpose, duration and expectations in advance.
- 07A decision on both sides
We discuss openly what we have seen
After the conversations, we make a careful internal decision and would like to hear how you found the process. We discuss any remaining doubts or questions before either party makes a final decision.
- 08Offer
All the details clearly agreed
If we are both enthusiastic, you receive a specific offer. We discuss the role, salary, hours, start date, employment terms and mutual expectations, so you know exactly what you are agreeing to.
- 09Your first day
Your workspace and introduction are ready
You have time to get to know the team, our customers, our services and the Compliance Tool. We arrange access, equipment and initial meetings, and make sure you know who to ask for help.
- 10Your first months
Growing context, confidence and responsibility
You start with manageable activities, then progress to your own customer questions, projects or areas of responsibility. Regular discussions help you become independent quickly without being left on your own.
What you may want to know in advance.
Can I send a speculative application?+
Yes. Tell us about the expertise you bring, the kind of work you are looking for and how you would contribute to our combination of compliance, software and growth.
Are all interviews at the office?+
An initial conversation can take place by phone or online. To get to know one another properly, we also value you visiting our Rotterdam office and meeting some potential colleagues.
Will I always receive an assignment or shadowing session?+
No. It depends on the role. If that step adds value, we explain in advance what we ask, how much time it takes and what we hope to learn.
Do I already need compliance expertise?+
It depends on the role. For substantive mid-level positions, yes; for working students and some junior roles, learning ability and motivation carry significant weight.
Can I have an informal call first?+
Of course. Call +31 10 360 28 29 or email hr@decomplianceafdeling.nl.
Can I request an adjustment to the process?+
Yes. If you need an adjustment because of a disability, neurodiversity or another reason, we are happy to explore practical options with you.
