Liebe/r Bewerber/in,

vielen Dank für Ihre Bewertung.

Ich bedauere es, dass wir Ihre Erwartungen an unseren Bewerbungsprozess nicht erfüllen konnten. Wir sind stets bestrebt, einen reibungslosen, fairen und transparenter Ablauf zu gewährleisten. Wir freuen wir uns sehr, dass Sie die Atmosphäre während des Bewerbungsprozesses positiv bewerten und angenehm in Erinnerung behalten.

Uns ist es wichtig, unsere Bewerbenden nicht nur via Online-Interviews, sondern auch vor Ort in unseren Büroräumlichkeiten persönlich kennenzulernen. Uns ist es ein besonderes Anliegen, dass die Bewerbenden die Möglichkeit erhalten, ihre potentiell zukünftigen Teammitglieder persönlich kennenzulernen. Die dadurch verursachten Auslagen für Vorstellungsgespräche erstatten wir selbstverständlich schnellstmöglich zurück, in der Regel innerhalb von 2 Wochen nach Erhalt aller erforderlichen Belege und Informationen.

Wir bedanken uns an dieser Stelle nochmals ausdrücklich für Ihre Flexibilität während des Bewerbungsprozesses und wünschen Ihnen alles Gute für Ihren beruflichen Weg.

Viele Grüße,
Misty Voss

Dear applicant,

Thank you for your feedback. I’m sorry to hear that you have perceived our recruiting process so negatively. I understand how frustrating this can be and I apologize for any inconvenience. Our new, more digitalized recruitment process is still work in progress. Your experience is in clear contrast to the quality level we aspire to create for our candidates. I will certainly address this internally. Here is how it should have worked:

The vacancy was open for applications from 05.12.23 until 07.01.24, longer than usually, due to the Holiday Season. Normally, you should have been clearly informed about the timing and nature of the next steps. We regret that this apparently has not happened in your case. We offer our apologies for this miscommunication. We do ask for your understanding, though, that in this very early stage of the application process, with normally a sizeable number of candidates, we are not able to provide an ongoing communication channel. This would overwhelm our capacity.

With regards to data protection: We explicitly deny any data misuse; this has been the main reason for contesting your comment. Compliance is imperative to DNV, not only in data protection but in general. We provide trust and take compliance matters ultimately seriously. Let me assure you that we will use your personal data only for the purpose indicated. Here is how it works in our talent data base:

Before creating a profile in the Talent Pool, you are asked to agree to the terms and conditions (ORC Job Candidate Privacy Notice). Here we explain in detail what personal data we collect, why we need your personal data, etc.

As stated in our Data Retention and Talent Pool-clause: If you decide to release your profile in the Talent Pool, you explicitly consent to be considered and potentially contacted by DNV regarding other open vacancies relevant to your profile. Your personal data may be kept for only a limited period of time, and you may at any time withdraw your profile from our Talent Pool.

By simply withdrawing one application, your candidate profile still exists, and you might still continue with another application, if so. To delete the profile altogether, you need to select the “Delete my profile” in the section “Info and Alerts”. In this case, all your data are deleted immediately.

From what I can conclude from your comments, though, some other, overlapping encounter might have potentially caused irritation on your end in the context of a document download from our website: For the sake of good order, we ask you for your consent at this occasion, too. The message you quote is very much identical with the message we sent after the consent to downloads, so you might want to double check this.

If doubts remain about DNV’s integrity and our handling of personal data, we strongly encourage you to use our integrity hotline to trigger a proper internal investigation of potential misconduct: https://www.dnv.com/about/public-impartiality-statement.html

Many thanks again for your application and your feedback. We have taken it seriously and double-checked our processes.

By the way: Our HR colleagues on LinkedIn are indeed real people, and so am I. Please don’t hesitate to contact me in my capacity as Talent Acquisition Specialist: misty.voss@dnv.com.
