Recruitment procedure - How can you prepare for a long life together?

Depending on your rank the pre employment screening could contain the following: Certificate of Conduct (in Dutch: VOG) or - if requesting a Dutch VOG is not possible - Criminal Background Check of the country you are currently living or have lived during the last five years, integrity questionnaire, verification of ID, diploma's and/or work experience and consultation of the Dutch insolvency registry.
