Have you ever left an interview thinking, "They really saw me."?
That feeling doesn't happen by chance.
It starts long before the first interview - when hiring managers slow down enough to ask the right questions:
What does success in this role actually look like? What kind of teammate will thrive here? How do we make every candidate feel respected, whether they join us or not?
Our Hiring Managers and Team Leads came together with Kristina Kazlauskaitė from "Alliance for Recruitment" to challenge the way we hire.
Not to learn how to fill vacancies faster.
But to become better at building teams that last.
One statistic from the workshop stayed with us:
📊 95% of candidates who have a positive recruitment experience would apply to the same company again - even if they weren't hired. And 97% would recommend that company to others.
Because recruitment isn't just a hiring process.
It's someone's first experience of your culture.
Every question we ask.
Every expectation we set.
Every piece of feedback we give.
It all shapes what people believe it would feel like to work with us.
At Arvato Systems Latvia, we believe the best hiring decisions aren't made by instinct alone. They come from preparation, honest conversations, and a genuine commitment to finding the right fit - for both sides.
After all, the strongest teams are built long before the first working day.
A sincere thank you to Kristina Kazlauskaitė and "Alliance for Recruitment" for challenging our thinking, and to everyone who contributed their perspectives throughout the workshop.
