I think you're under the impression the form ask for a lot more info than it does. Name, address, phone number, references, appointment details... all the stuff I'd get in a phone call or email, just on a form on my site. No bigger hassle than normal, I'd assume. Especially since the job verification part isn't a necessity.
I admit that I'm completely ignorant of any screening process really, so I don't know what the difference is b/w here and there. If they don't want to give me the info I want, fine. I'm not looking to do this full-time; those that want me will deal with it. Also, I feel I'm less likely to get attacked, the more of his personal deets I have. Maybe I'm wrong.
Guess we'll see.
Germany is looking more and more attractive to me. I studied in Paris for a year, and want to try some place new. Belgium, eh? Hmm. I was in Belgium once... passing through it really. It seemed quite... dull. That of course is not a fair assessment as I was there for an hour and a half, but still. Berlin seems like TONS more fun.
