In order to promote fair recruitment and strengthen transparency towards jobseekers from third countries, the Secretariat, with the support of the National Contact Points, should ensure that easily accessible information is available on the IT Platform. That information should cover employment and immigration procedures, recognition of qualifications and validation of skills, third-country nationals’ rights and obligations, living and working conditions, existing complaints and redress mechanisms in the case of labour exploitation and unfair recruitment practices, as well as support measures available in the context of complementary labour pathways to jobseekers in need of international protection who reside outside the Union. The National Contact Points should provide the Secretariat with the relevant information for publication on the IT Platform. National Contact Points should also be able to refer to existing sources of information at Union or national level. It is important that the Secretariat, in cooperation with the Union delegations, raise public awareness about the existence, objectives and functioning of the EU Talent Pool through communication activities and information campaigns, where possible and subject to the resources available. In order to ensure the success of such communication campaigns, it is also important that the National Contact Points provide support to the Secretariat in disseminating the relevant information within the participating Member States.
