First stage

Once the Competition is closed, the Organizer shall review the applications submitted for the Competition within a period defined by the rules. The five contestants with the highest number of points on the application form advance to the second round (the maximum number of points is 24).

Organiser may appoint and dismiss at its own discretion the members of a professional jury.

Second stage

During the second stage, a detailed presentation of nominated business practices shall be organised, in front of a professional jury, for 5 business practices which have passed the first stage, for the purpose of additional explanation regarding the criteria. Decision on the first five places shall be made based on the jury votes (maximally 24 points) and votes of the audience via LinkedIn social network (maximally 5 points). Namely, all the 5 business practices shall be presented at the official LinkedIn page of the ManpowerGroup Srbija company. To each of them shall be awarded a certain number of points (1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 points) proportionally to the number of „likes“- at the LinkedIn, in the following way: 5 points for a business practice whose presentation gets the most „likes“, whereas 1 point shall be awarded to a program whose presentation gets the least number of „likes“. A maximal number of „likes“ to be taken into account by the employees of a company whose business practice is nominated shall be 20, in order to prevent a direct influence of the number of employees from the companies which entered the second stage on points received through the number of „likes“ on LinkedIn. „Likes“ from the employees of ManpowerGroup SEE and partner company Assert International shall not be taken into account.

The winner, as well as those who won the second and third place shall be selected by summing up the votes (points) of the professional jury and the number of points gained based on „likes“ at the LinkedIn.

Professional jury is entitled to choose one winner of the Competition. The winner may win the award only once. The winner of the award shall be contacted by the Organiser.
