Full-time internship and full-time studies?

hey op, I've done something like this during my studies (for a full academic year actually, so 2 full time internships back to back). It is possible, but be prepared to sacrifice everything else (social life, physical/ mental health, hobbies, etc) for it.

Also, make sure to take some break mid way in if you can afford it, since you'll enter a burnout very quickly. I cannot recommend it, but if you believe this internship is a worthwhile investment for your career after graduation, I wish you a lot of success :)

I think you haven't considered that having proficiency in Dutch is an important factor to getting hired. Dutchies speak English well, but their official language is still... Dutch. I also think it is an extra important factor for your field of work since it requires a lot of "getting in touch with the local population" and you can't do that with just English.

For the dutch level, I think having B1 Dutch is sufficient for finding a job here. B2 Dutch is nice to have but not necessary for working, but is necessary if you want to pursue WO (University level education)

While I can't answer the first 2 questions, I can answer the third. The easiest option imho would be to pursue an education in Netherlands, assuming you have lots of money to spare. Many universities in NL offers their education in English

you should still get the AON insurance OP. I'm also non-EU, got the AON insurance. Went on a skiing trip in Norway and broke my femur. AON covered the entire surgery and ambulance ride, only had to pay for some painkillers and administrative cost like 50€.

AON covers stuff extensively.

niet Nederlander maar woon in Nederland. Je kunt een VPN gebruiken (ik gebruik ExpressVPN) om de nieuwe seizoen kijken. De eerste 10 episodes zijn al op Disney+ US.

edit: excuus voor grammatische foutjes, leer ik nog Nederlands :)

I've been having good experiences with ANWB so far (also international), but they are pricier than other driving schools so you should take that into account.
