Mezinárodní diverzita a inkluze v náborových procesech ve středním managementu v České republice

This Master´s thesis aims to identify the strengths and weaknesses of international diversity and inclusion in recruitment processes within middle management in the Czech Republic, to analyse the attitudes and barriers affecting the integration of foreign candidates into the Czech labour market, and to formulate practical suggestions and recommendations for foreign candidates, recruitment specialists, and managers. To achieve this objective, a literature review was conducted, together with fifteen in-depth, semi-structured interviews with recruitment specialists from the Czech environment and a questionnaire survey in the form of a simulated mail-in test featuring a model position of data analyst and fictional profiles of three foreign candidates (originally from Ukraine, India, and Slovakia). Among other things, this thesis revealed that the barriers to international diversity in the Czech market include personal biases and unofficial requirements imposed by managers, insufficient authority for recruitment specialists, and the perception of diversity as a directive form of control imposed by foreign headquarters.
