DIGITAL SKILLS FOR JOBS AND INCOME (DS4JI)
The development of an appropriate digital toolkit (e.g. integration of content from platforms such as LinkedIn, introduction of video applications, serious games as a selection mechanism, etc.) will strengthen the companies' human resource management capacities. These SMMEs will be supported by training their HR personnel to use digital tools to assist in the recruitment of applicants with the digital skills demanded by their companies. The HR Professional"s individual competences with regard to the use of digital tools and gender sensitivity should be increased. The gender-sensitive design (including - diversity, equity and inclusion, "DEI") of the instruments and the sensitisation of HR managers specifically, contributes to equal opportunities for women in the labour market. The HR professionals of these SMMEs are further trained on gender-sensitive approaches to recruitment and skills assessment. Ideally, the tools also reflect the soft skills, such as attitude, initiative, critical thinking etc. of the applicant to match the vacant position.
