The GDPR presents a number of challenges, not least the fact that the legislation wasn’t drafted to consider the nuances of an industry so reliant on high quality personal data. 
In many areas there is still ambiguity and no clear cut rule that organisations should abide by in order to guarantee compliance. There are also still a number of business decisions to be made in areas where there are not yet definitive answers.
However, across the Invenias customer base and the wider market, a common consensus is emerging regarding the approach taken by leading search firms and in-house talent teams as they seek to comply with the legislation.
In April 2018, in conjunction with ComplyGDPR, Invenias undertook the largest global survey of executive search professionals and their approach to GDPR compliance. This survey is part of our ongoing commitment to providing best practice guidance and support for our customers and the wider market.
