Of course! One question I remember, was why I wanted to do my chosen occupation. I responded that I love art, making things on a computer, and working with other people. My education was also in graphic design and I loved making websites. There was a super specific one about why I wanted to work with a smaller company. They also asked why I wanted to take a course on UI (User Interface) design. I mentioned that it was the next step in web design and I had no previous experience with it. Just look at your answers and consider the possibilities behind them. If you want to be a baker, why do you like that? Do you enjoy baking? Or maybe because you want to bring a smile to someone’s face? If you want to be a doctor then it’s because you care about people, right? Haha

I sent my portfolio and got a positive response. I am just as nervous as you (were)- going for my interview mid Dec. I would like to prepare as best as i can for potential questions…they might ask. Any info from your experience would really help! thanks 🙂

I’m Indonesian living in Breda. Good to know somebody who had experienced ONA, cause soon ill have to do it too. I have questions about Ona, do you mind correspondence with me through email or whatsapp? Btw Do we have to speak fluent dutch? Because i don’t speak dutch very well, and plus the nervousness, I’m afraid i can’t answer them correctly. Thank you
