Dear Participant,

Thank you for joining our upcoming event taking place online on the 13 October 2022. 

In order to get the most of this event we recommend you to:

Improve your profile / CV

Pay attention to your language, technical or soft skills, as well as educational fields. You can add your picture and, if you have one, your Skype account ID. If you haven’t done so yet, we strongly advise you to have your CV uploaded in English or have it retrieved from the EURES portal. You can as well add your LinkedIn profile or any online portfolio. Watch the video

Apply for jobs & confirm your attendance to interviews

There will be plenty of jobs waiting for you on the platform. Browse through these vacancies and apply as soon as possible to those matching your skills and expectations. Uploading your CV is not enough, the employer can only view your profile/ CV when you apply for their jobs.

Companies may also invite you for one or more online interviews, to take place on the event day.

In case you are pre-selected, you will get a notification by the employer(s) on possible timeslots for the interview, to which you should answer as quickly as possible.

If you have already applied, you might have some invitations pending your confirmation. Please check on a regular basis. 



Prepare for the interview(s)

In order to better prepare, you should thoroughly research available information on the participating employers page, their main projects and recruitment needs. Select the companies you want to approach, or who have invited you for an interview, identify the questions you may want to ask and try to anticipate possible questions from the employer.

A professional appearance is important (even if the interview is online) and a good level of English combined with a positive attitude, will prove highly beneficial.

Please make sure, ahead of the day of an online interview, you have access to:

• PC, laptop, tablet / iPad or another mobile device plus a headset with a microphone and a webcam;
• a stable internet connection;
• If you have an interview time slot confirmed – the employer will contact you on the time agreed 

On the event day, you can chat with employers and info points regarding job possibillities and other related issues. 

If you are not an EU/EEA or Swiss citizen

Please bear in mind that, while you may participate in this event and use the www.europeanjobdays.eu platform for job search and meeting employers, you will still have additional legal obligations and administrative procedures to go through to get access to the European labour market.

We advise you to check beforehand for additional information:

• the basic EU labour market accessing principles for different non-EU country nationals,
• the EU Immigration Portal

You should also be aware that employers may decide not to go through your application, due to the expected length of immigration procedures related to your hiring.

We look forward to meet you online on the 13 October, and wish you good luck on your job search!

Find your Beat in West Sweden

Online-eventet "Find your Beat in West Sweden" är ett rekryteringsevent där ni som arbetsgivare erbjuds möjlighet att, helt kostnadsfritt, träffa och etablera kontakt med kvalificerade kandidater från hela EU/EES området. Kandidater som kanske blir era nya medarbetare! 

"Find your Beat in West Sweden" anordnas av Eures Sweden Arbetsförmedlingen på online-plattformen European Online Job Day. Under eventdagen kommunicerar man som arbetsgivare med kandidater på engelska.

Ni erbjuds följande:

• Annonsera era lediga tjänster, som kan ses av kvalificerade kandidater i hela Europa  
• Intervjua kandidater. Kandidater som sökt en ledig tjänst hos er kan ni välja att intervjua direkt under eventdagen.    
• Chatta med kandidater som vill veta mer om er verksamhet och de lediga tjänster ni erbjuder.

Låter det intressant och vill ni medverka? Följ då dessa steg:

Registrera er medverkan

Registrera nytt konto: https://youtu.be/PobxwCdu8DI

Har ni ett konto sedan tidigare och vill registrera er: https://youtu.be/n1hniFDyHtg

Om er organisation består av flera avdelningar som önskar delta i eventet rekommenderar vi att varje avdelning registrerar var sitt konto. På så sätt exponeras varje avdelning för sig och det blir lättare för er att hantera ansökningarna. Dessutom får varje avdelning planeringsverktyg för intervjuer och chattkanal som är deras egna.

Annonsering

För att ni ska få bästa möjliga genomslag i marknadsföringen av era lediga tjänster är det viktigt att annonsera dessa på eventsidan så snart som möjligt!   

Matchningen av kandidater sker utifrån annonserna och för ett lyckat resultat är det viktigt att vara tydlig i beskrivningen av tjänstens innehåll och krav på kvalifikationer. Kom ihåg att skriva annonstexten på engelska. Erbjuder ni flera tjänster inom olika yrkeskategorier går det bra att registrera en samlingsannons.

I annonseringen har ni möjlighet att hänvisa sökande även till er egen karriärsida men observera att event-plattformen är uppbyggd för att sökande ska söka tjänsterna genom just plattformen, vilket innebär att de allra flesta gör det. Därför är det viktigt att ni fortlöpande tittar igenom era annonser för att fånga upp kandidaterna.

Boka online-intervjuer

Ni har möjlighet att boka in online-intervjuer där ni kan möta kandidater som visat intresse för era lediga tjänster. Under eventdagen den 24 februari har ni tillgång till 30-minuters intervju"slots" från kl 08.00 och över hela dagen (fram till 23.59) där ni väljer vilka "slots" ni vill göra tillgängliga för kandidater.

Onlineintervjuerna genomförs genom ett audio-video chat verktyg som heter Jitsi. Ni behöver varken installera programvara eller anpassa ert system/firewall. 

Här kan ni se filmen om online-intervjuer: https://youtu.be/FFcYADGhmUQ

Funktionen online intervjuer finner ni i ert "Dashboard" under "Job applications/Interviews".  

Chatta med kandidater under eventdagen

Genom att vara inloggad på erat exhibitorskonto kan ni chatta med kandidater under dagen.

Tänk på att lägga planerade intervjuer till andra tider än under eventets öppettider så kan ni nyttja tiden till spontana intervjuer under hela eventet.
