5.2. CV selection
Some Amsterdam Case Competition events include a CV selection. Through the use of CV selection, the sponsor can choose students whom match with its preferred job profile and wishes.
(i) Sefa handles your personal details very confidentially and will, apart from making your CV anonymous, not apply any changes. In the process of making your CV anonymous, we will remove your contact details (i.e. telephone number, address, city and e-mail).
(ii) Sefa can in no way influence the selection of students. Exclusively the participating sponsors will execute the selection of students.

In addition, individual conversations, breakfast, lunch or dinner are considered more consequential than a case with CV selection. Accordingly, Sefa keeps the right to adjust any overlaps in the student’s timetable. Where possible, these possible adjustments are made in consultation with the student. However, the student’s final timetable and the activities he/she is selected for are indisputable by Sefa.
(v) After the student participated in (parts of) a Sefa event devoted to a specific sponsor including CV selection, Sefa has the right to hand over the full CV from that student to that particular sponsor
