The selection process consists of several consecutive steps:
1. Response to the Job Position
The candidate responds to a specific job position (or several positions at the same time) via our website or one of the job portals by sending his/her CV in Slovak or English.
2. Selection of CVs
Each CV received undergoes a thorough assessment with regard to the requirements of the position. Selected candidates who meet the criteria are then contacted to arrange a job interview. If a specific level of knowledge of a foreign language is required, the candidate will also have a telephone conversation in the relevant language, the mastery of which is a prerequisite for the invitation to a job interview.
3. "Face to Face" Job Interview in GWR
A job interview is a key part of the selection process. GWR prefers personal job interviews, as it is important for us to get to know the candidate thoroughly so that we can adequately assess his/her prerequisites for the performance of the position in question, as well as his/her ability to identify with the company culture and work environment of the company that wants to fill the position in question. The advantage of a job interview in a personnel-consulting company is that the candidate receives valuable information and feedback from experienced recruitment specialists. Thanks to this, he/she is able to adjust his/her presentation and prepare more effectively for a personal interview with a potential employer. In any case, the candidate should not underestimate the preparation for a job interview – this topic is therefore discussed in more detail in the section "Preparing for a Job Interview".
4. Recommendation Process
Selected candidates who have successfully completed a job interview in a personnel-consulting company are recommended for a job meeting with the employer. This recommendation takes the form of the so-called evaluation form and is completed by the experienced recruitment specialist with whom the candidate has been interviewed. The assessment form, together with the CV, is forwarded to the relevant employer. The representative of the personnel-consulting company and the candidate always agree in advance on this step and everything happens with the consent and knowledge of the candidate.
5. Selection of CVs by the Employer
The HR specialist of the employer will carry out the selection of CVs and recommendations received from the personnel-consulting company. Based on this selection, the HR specialist of the employer will select candidates to be invited to a personal job interview directly with the employer's representatives.
6. "Face to Face" Job Interview with the Employer
The job interview with the employer may have one or more rounds (depending on the complexity of the position). However, in most cases, the first round will decide whether the candidate has succeeded or not. This decision is made by the HR department in cooperation with the head of the department in which the position is being filled.
7. Job Offer
The successful candidate receives a job offer, which is usually communicated to him by his personal consultant who recommended him. As a rule, the job offer contains information about the job position, the start day of work and the starting salary (gross). The candidate should communicate his/her opinion on the job offer within a few days, ideally as soon as possible.
8. Taking up Employment
If the job offer is accepted, the candidate becomes an employee of the company on the start date. On taking up employment, our mission is successfully completed and from that moment, all the requirements regarding the employee are in the competence of his/her new employer.
