I ended up writing her an email to ask, and it turned out she had mixed up the dates and thought we would do so tomorrow; there aren’t many news yet, mostly wanted to hear from me how the interview went and if I had any more questions.
I should get a final response at the end of next week and they are interviewing two or three other candidates, noting that there are few people with the profile they are looking for (I kinda agree).
There might be some room on the salary and I might want to send a number today or tomorrow…
The number in the room is 75K (≈51K net, equating to ≈4K per month), which sounds good, but rent in Luxemburg is at least 2K/month, leaving not all that much afterwards…

If I look around, a lot of places seem to suggest that someone with my background should be able to expect something closer to 90K as a salary there, which would definitely put this into a much nicer category… Would I overstretch things if I asked for that? Should I ask for higher, so we can meet there? I don’t want them to take someone else because I overplayed my hand either…

@Fiona you can rent over the german border and commute by train, I am from the region and lots of folks do it. Trier would be the best I guess they have a good rail conection to luxembourg city (~50min). If you dont mind rural areas the french border area is a bit closer but very rural.
