I applied through other source. I interviewed at Daikin (Ghent) in Jul 2025
Interview
Unfortunately, the interview experience was disappointing. The external interviewer focused almost entirely on my diploma rather than my 8 years of hands-on experience in the IT industry as a PM/PO. He dismissed my competencies and stated that, without a master's degree, I could expect no more than €2,000 net — a figure far below my current market value (I have interviewed startup, international/global companies and my profile & background was estimated minimum of €3500 net. His tone came across as dismissive, and I chose to end the process (especially when he pointed out "it just a title").
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Al met al werd ik tijdens het gesprek voornamelijk bevraagd op basis van mijn cv: mijn werkervaring, talenkennis (Nederlands en Engels), enzovoort. Het gesprek begon positief, tot het onderwerp "diploma" ter sprake kwam.
