Your personal data will be processed for the purposes of managing Controller’s recruitment related activities, which include setting up and conducting interviews and tests for applicants, evaluating and assessing the results thereto, and as is otherwise needed in the recruitment and hiring processes. Such processing is legally permissible under the First Schedule, Part 3, Paragraph 10 of the Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA) as necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by the Controller, which are the solicitation, evaluation, and selection of applicants for employment. You are responsible for ensuring that the personal data you provide is accurate and complete. If you provide us with personal data relating to another individual (for example, as a referee or emergency contact), you represent and warrant that you have obtained that individual’s consent in accordance with applicable data protection laws (including the PDPA) for us to collect, use, and disclose their personal data for the purposes described above.
