Also, quoting friom the GDPR, art. 4

"‘personal data’ means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (‘data subject’); an identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person;"

I guess interview notes would fall into this category as well. it's related to a identifiable `data subject` and related to his traits. e.g. "John Smith is bad at math and he hates pencils"


No. Under the GDPR they will tell you that they stored your name and surname (as in sentence "John Smith is bad at math and he hates pencils"). They will not send you the sentence they will just inform you that they used your name in it. If you ask them to remove your personal data then they are obligated to remove your name from that sentence but that's it, the sentence can stay because it doesn't says who hates pencils, it's just says that there is a person that is bad at math and hates pencils. It's like me saying "A white, old guy who was US president sent me a letter", it describes quite a bit but it doesn't identify anybody even thought it narrows the list quite a bit.


You might have a point here. However, there's a couple of articles online that say otherwise: https://www.xperthr.co.uk/faq/do-job-applicants-have-the-rig... https://recruitment.software/gdpr-the-end-of-handwritten-int... https://elliswhittam.com/blog/give-feedback-job-applicants/

It's quite a unclear topic imho, that's why I'm curious if it was tried and wether it worked or not.


Romania has great local food! But not so much when it comes to international cuisine - it's either bad or very expensive. Internet is fast and stable and on top of that super cheap, compare with other UE countries. I'd recommend RO if you enjoy nature, specially the mountain/rural side.


That's not just a simple comment, it's art, kind sir! LOL


Github. Great integrations, familiar to most people in the company.


Lucene/Solr, Elastic Search and Algolia did a great job creating search tools and services and this extinguished the thirst of the masses. I don't think it's a solved problem, it's just a problem that has commercially viable solutions. When it comes to resources, I've found valuable knowledge in Lucene/Solr forums and mailing lists, back in the day. It's worth a read.


Name it something that ends in *-fy. That's still cool, right?


The South America / islands and included because they are territories belonging to a EU country (France, Spain, Portugal). Turkey is in there because it's a candidate country.


Is it still? It's a human rights nightmare and I don't think the EU should have anything to do with Turkey while Erdogan is still in power.


It's still a candidate. It's moving backwards rather than forwards on its acceptance criteria, and realistically won't be joining anytime soon, but it's still a candidate.


It's not really a question anymore for the next few years (or decades). Official status is just a political tool by now and even then this classification may lag behind.


GP most likely knows and is just passive-aggressively complaining about the conflation of 'Europe' and 'EU' in the title.


That's probably gonna be the approach for most people, but when it does get some traction, would be great to have a checklist to start from.


Yeah, my thoughts exactly... If anything good gets out this thread I'll compile a checklist and pass it around.
