Why do we process your personal data?

We only process your personal data for specific purposes, and only process personal data relevant to those purposes.

We only process your personal data where we have a clear legal justification to do so. For the purposes listed below, we will process your personal data in order to take steps to enter into an employment contract with you:

• Creating, managing and maintaining your user account on the EGA recruitment portal
• Communicating with you during the recruitment process
• Arranging and conducting interviews and assessments with you
• Assessing your suitability and fit for the role that you have applied for including where necessary through the use of tools and systems provided to us by trusted third parties
• Conducting reference and pre-employment checks, including conflict of interest checks
• Verifying the accuracy of the information you have provided, such as your qualifications
• Creating and administering job offer letters and employment contracts
• Responding to any queries, feedback or complaints

Additionally, we may process your personal data on the basis of your consent in the following circumstances:

• Sending you information on new vacancies and recruitment campaigns, where you have opted to receive this information
• Placing certain types of cookies on your device. Some of these cookies are essential to enable you to view the site and so cannot be deactivated, while others are optional. For more information, see the cookie policy available in the footer of this page
• Using artificial intelligence to evaluate your performance in video interviews and game-based assessments (see the section below ‘Our use of artificial intelligence as part of the recruitment process’). Personal data including insights and information derived from these evaluations (such as your performance score in a game-based assessment), may be further processed and retained by us in order to take steps to enter into an employment contract with you

We may also process your personal data where it is necessary to comply with our legal obligations, which may include responding to requests from regulators or law enforcement, or where it is necessary to defend any rights or legal claims.

Our use of artificial intelligence as part of the recruitment process

For some roles we may invite you to participate in video interviews and / or game-based assessments as part of the recruitment process, which are facilitated by our third-party provider HireVue.

If you consent, artificial intelligence (AI) will be used to evaluate those video interviews and game-based assessments. The insights and information generated by AI will then be used as part of EGA’s assessment of your suitability and fit for the role that you have applied for.

The AI does not make the final decision about whether you should proceed to the next stage of the recruitment process, but rather provides a score or a recommended score based on your responses, which EGA’s recruitment team can use to assist in consideration of your application.

If you do not consent, you will still be able to complete the video interviews and game-assessments on the HireVue platform, but they will not subject to AI evaluation. Instead, your responses will be reviewed manually by a member of EGA’s recruitment team.

Additional information about HireVue, how your personal data is processed as part of it, and how to consent, will be provided to you if you are invited to participate in a video interview or game-based assessment on the HireVue platform.

Whether or not you consent to the use of AI, final hiring decisions are always made by humans in EGA’s recruitment team, not by HireVue or AI.
