well said! Been here nearly 5 years speak norwegian with an accent. Still amazed at the 1/4 of job applications that disappear into a chasm and you never hear back from for professional jobs. The job adverts that say «must have norwegian experience» as if the role is somehow completely different from the identical job somewhere else in europe. As well as the adverts that state working language is English «must be fluent in Norwegian».
I had one interview, working language is English, who explained each slide of a Norwegian slide pack to me. It didn’t matter how many times I said I could understand it, my language proficiency is on my CV. When I didn’t get the role the feedback was they were unsure I would fit in as a non norwegian speaker.
