remarks
Reliability and professionalism. I've been cast in several commercials in The Netherlands without even having to audition as I had a solid reputation.
I have often been complimented on my ability to "fit in."
Various styles of acting, whether in TV, film, or stage are no problem. Each requires adaptation and the many years of experience have helped with this.
