In order to comply with all obligations, the processing of personal data is needed in order to be able to assess the information provided and its suitability for the job requirements that we intend to fill.
The lack of this information may prevent or delay the fulfillment of these obligations.

BDO does not collect sensitive personal data from candidates (relating, for example, to the candidate's health, philosophical or political beliefs, party or union affiliation, religious faith, private life and racial or ethnic origin). However, if BDO has access to that type of data due to the candadate´s submission, it will be considered provided, for all legal purposes, his express consent for BDO to process it.
