| Abstract: | The research analyses drivers and barriers for the highly-skilled female international applicants going through the recruitment process in Slovenia as self-initiated expats. The qualitative research methodology was designed with six in-depth interviews with international EU and non-EU candidates from Russia, Belarus, Latvia and Sweden. Respondents are self-initiated, highly-skilled female international expatriates, most of them have already been immersed in various intercultural situations before coming to Slovenia due to some personal or professional reasons. Theoretical frameworks of G. Hofstede, E.T. Hall, F. Trompenaars, C. Hampden-Turner and cultural intelligence competences models were applied to define HRM processes within the analysis. Findings demonstrate that the future female employees ought to give consideration not only to certain general working aspects but also to some cultural differences as well as similarities, which affect international HR selection and recruitment process in the country. These differences and similarities might either motivate or impede while going through the recruitment and selection process, appearing to be certain drivers and barriers for self-initiated expats. Necessary intercultural competences (such as cultural awareness, proactivity, sensitivity, flexibility, reflexivity, open mindset, and readiness to face challenges ahead), as well as certain fields of knowledge (such as procedural, culture specific, and legal ones) for the entry-level of the recruitment process in Slovenia are identified. The main contribution of the research is estimated within the perspective of the international HR as the representation of the highly-skilled female employees’ side within the recruitment process in the international arena. Moreover, it may improve intercultural cooperation within the female expatriates’ recruitment and selection process in Slovenia, develop the network, and enrich personal intercultural competences concerning the employment culture in Slovenia and the European Union as a whole. |
