The “must-have” section of a job ad can shape who decides to apply. Some requirements are genuinely essential. You need them to do the job safely, effectively, or legally. Others are there because they reflect the people who have done the role before. A certain career path. A particular style of communication. Experience gained in a familiar setting. The opportunity is to know the difference. Being clear about what someone truly needs helps people decide whether a role is right for them. Being flexible about everything else creates space for different experiences, perspectives, and strengths to come through. #PrideMonth is a good reminder that talent doesn’t always look the same. Some people are confident in interviews. Some show their strengths through their work. Some have followed a traditional path. Others have taken a less obvious route to get there. The strongest teams aren’t built by looking for the same person over and over again. They’re built by making room for people who bring something different. At TOMRA, we often talk about building systems that work in the real world. Hiring is part of that system too. 🚀
