An inspiring day full of insights

The Recruitment and Government Congress offered an inspiring day full of insights, interactive sessions, and valuable conversations. Recrout was a proud partner of this event and participated enthusiastically in discussions about the future of recruitment and selection within the public sector. The event provided a unique opportunity to collaborate with professionals from government and municipalities on making recruitment smarter, fairer, and more efficient.

The Future of Work: Jobs of Tomorrow

One of the highlights of the congress was the workshop Jobs of Tomorrow, presented by Karim Akhlal, founder of Recrout. This session focused on the evolving job market and the role of technology in finding talent. How can we look beyond CVs and traditional selection criteria? Which skills are crucial for the jobs of the future? And how can AI contribute to inclusion and diversity within the public sector? These questions were central and sparked engaging discussions.

Innovation, Diversity, and Inclusion in the Public Sector

In addition to this inspiring workshop, the congress covered a wide range of topics, from innovations in recruitment to strategies for promoting diversity and inclusion within the public sector. The public sector faces significant challenges, and finding the right people has never been more important. By looking beyond experience and degrees and focusing on competencies and potential, government organizations can better respond to the evolving job market.
