The Poles are tired of incomprehensible job offers and the concealment of the salary offered in them. Almost everyone believes that transparency in this matter is key.
The Polish labor market may soon face very serious changes. According to the MASMI Poland survey for the “Respect Yourself” campaign, as much as 92.9 percent. people believe that job offers should make a key change. It’s about the salary.
No more hiding salary
Almost all Poles are tired of hiding the rates offered for this or that position by recruiting companies and agencies. 92.9% are convinced of the need to disclose remuneration in offers. respondents. They claim that this is an important element or very important. Only 4.8 percent. people said they didn’t care about it, and “it doesn’t matter” or “definitely doesn’t matter” - only 2.3%. people. As you can see, the advantage of a group of followers is overwhelming. Such a high correspondence is very rare in studies.
The question was asked as part of a survey accompanying the “Respect Yourself” campaign organized by the No Fluff Jobs portal. It offers vacancies for employees of the IT industry, i.e. one of the industries that are changing the perception of the Polish labor market. The campaign aims to draw attention to obscure and non-transparent recruitment processes.

It turns out that every third person applying for a job, recruiters ask about marital status, 27 percent. presence of children, and every fourth candidate also by age.
