How to do well during an online job interview?

Job interviews in times of the pandemic take place mostly online via Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Webex and many other platforms. The way a candidate prepares for an interview shows their respect for the potential employer. Therefore, it is worth remembering that both substantive and technical preparation (working equipment and the ability to operate the platform through which we connect), as well as neat appearance are very important. In fact, all the rules for a live job interview also apply online.

An ideal model for communicating expectations

Relations between people, regardless of the environment, involve mutual exchange of information. The message we want to convey is mostly determined by the context, the emotions we feel at the moment and the opinions of other people. Among other things, these factors, as well as the so called information noise, may cause the recipient to misunderstand or misinterprete our message. How can we be sure that the interlocutor has received and understood the actual intentions of the sender?

RODO in recruitment

The General Data Protection Regulation or the Personal Data Protection Regulation, commonly known in Poland as RODO, came into force in May 2018. This new regulation was much debated, but not everyone knows what it really is all about. Its aim is both to harmonize law within the European Union as well as enable the free but secure flow of personal data but also to enable EU citizens the better control of their own data. But what does it really mean for companies and entrepreneurs? Well, the RODO has initiated the modernization and unification of regulations in such a way as to reduce bureaucracy and create an opportunity to use the newly created, greater trust of customers. On the other hand, what is important in matters of human resources is how this new regulation affects the recruitment process of new employees in companies.
