Additional information

The hiring process uses an AI-assisted matching workflow to review applications quickly and fairly against the main role requirements. The system identifies the strongest-fit applicants, and that shortlist is passed to the employer. Final decisions, interviews, and assessments are handled by the employer’s internal team.

By applying, you agree that the platform may process your personal data to assess your candidacy and share relevant details with the employer, based on legitimate interest and pre-contractual measures under applicable data protection laws, including GDPR. You can request access, correction, deletion, or objection to processing at any time.

Artificial intelligence tools may also be used to support parts of the hiring workflow, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, checking responses, and identifying possible inconsistencies or verification signals. These tools support the recruitment team but do not replace human judgment, and the final hiring decision is made by people. Contact the hiring team if you need more information about data processing.
