Vraag 1
First interview with the hiring manager - situational/behavioral questions; what challenges I have faced, how I dealt with specific situations, and more Second interview with the director - random questions and one technical question (the director asked to do role play as a TAM member and asked how I'd handle a version update)
The first question of my second interview was more of a statement than a question. The director shared his concern about my cultural fit because of my background (from the US) and asked me how I would overcome the cultural difference. I felt the first question revealed how he judged me before the interview, and it was tough trying to turn the table.

Sollicitatiegesprek
Applied via VMware Careers webpage and got a reply from Talent Acquisition person in 1 business week.
In the job description, only English was required (apart from technical skills) and I was asked if I speak the local language fluently.
Unfortunately, I recently moved from another country and that was a reason for rejection.
To recap:
> Don't mention the local language in the job description
> Job description itself in English (obviously)
>> Require the potential candidate to be fluent in local language by default
