I. Read the texts paying attention to the words in bold.
A process of finding people for particular job is recruitment or, especially in American English, hiring. Someone who has been recruited is a recruit or in American English a hire. The company employs or hires them, they join the company. A company may recruit employers directly or use outside recruiters, recruitment agencies or employment agencies. Outside specialists called headhunters may be called on to headhunt people for very important jobs, persuading them (убеждая их) to leave the organization they already work for. This process is called headhunting.
Dagmar Schmidt is the head of recruitment at a German telecommunications company. She talks about the selection process, the methods that company uses to recruit people:
“We advertise in national newspapers. We look at the backgrounds of applicants: their experience of different jobs and their educational qualifications. We don’t ask for handwritten letters of applications as people usually apply by email.
We invite the most interesting candidates to a group discussion. Then we have individual interviews with each candidate. We also ask the candidates to do written psychometric tests to assess their intelligence and personality.
After this, we shortlist three or four candidates. We check their references by writing to their referees: previous employers or teachers that candidates have named in their applications. If the references are OK, we ask the candidates to come back to more interviews. Finally, we offer the job to someone, and if they turn it down, we have to think again. If they accept it, we hire them. We only appoint someone if we find the right person.”
