I would say wait with spending money until you hear from the recruiters that there will be an intervju taking place.
You shouldn't have said that. You've ensured my disappointment if I don't hear back from you guys. Hah.
On that note, is there any estimated time between applications and responses? Of course these things cannot be estimated very precisely, but just knowing if it's counted in days, weeks or months is valuable information, certainly for those who have to contend with the possibility (however remote) of needing to plan in an out of country trip at an unspecified future date.

Well.. let me just say that the ones handling the recruitment are in full swing already. I think they stated they would look at people in Sweden first, and then get in touch with people living abroad. I would presume some applicants not in Sweden should be contacted this week or next (hopefully). But if you applied and do not get any answer during this time, it does not mean anything, as I know they will get back to everyone that applied even if they whether or not they feel said person is suited for the job.
That's a relief. Belgian authorities are quite strict on the unemployed being able to proof that they are actively trying to find a job. You wouldn't believe how many companies here just ignore you if you don't qualify. No e-mail, no phone, nothing. Good to know that you guys are not like that.
Would this position offer the chance to move onto the development team for future projects? I would totally be willing to move to the other side of the world if it meant I could see my ideas implemented in Victoria III.
Some QA people have moved on to be scripters in other projects, but it is an exception rather than a rule. QA is a specific skill set, so if you feel that QA is not for you it can be frustrating to be "stuck" in QA.
On the other hand, if your mindset fits, being in QA can be very rewarding!
Slightly unrelated to the topic, but does Paradox take student internships ? And in which areas ?

We do, but not always... depends very much on if we feel that there might be room to hire said individual after the internship. We try not to have the reputation of recycling interns for free labor like so many other companies

QA sounds fun but is there any chance of having the cake and eating it too by doing different kinds of work?

Just to inform you all, the job ad has now been taken down as the amount of applicants we've received for the position/s have been overwhelming. The recruitment team are in full swing sending mail to interested applicants. I can also inform you all that you will get a response even if there isn't anything we can offer for you at this moment.
I would like to thank you all for showning your interest in joining our fun family here at Paradox, and for those of you that sent an application, I wish you the best of luck!

Mr. Nibbles
