(3) In order to facilitate international recruitment and provide opportunities for third-country nationals to work in EU-wide shortage occupations, an EU Talent Pool should be established in the form of a Union-wide platform that brings together and supports the matching of profiles of registered jobseekers from third countries residing outside the Union and job vacancies of employers established in the participating Member States.

(5) The EU Talent Pool should aim at supporting participating Member States to address existing and future skills and labour shortages via the recruitment of third country nationals to the extent the activation of the domestic workforce and intra-EU mobility are not sufficient to achieve this objective. As a voluntary tool to facilitate international recruitment, the EU Talent Pool should offer additional support at Union level to interested Member States. To this end, complementarity and interoperability with existing national initiatives and platforms should be ensured. Member States’ specific needs should be taken into account in the development of the EU Talent Pool in order to ensure the widest participation possible. Hence, ‘Talent’ is an encompassing term referring to the entire range of skills that might be needed by the Member States’ labour markets.

(7) Strong partnerships with third countries can contribute to effective development cooperation and facilitate the creation of mutual gains for third countries, the EU, and its Member States. Partnerships should offer simple, coherent and comprehensible legal pathways to the Union, ensuring re-entry possibilities and encouraging circular migration for its developmental benefits to countries of origin, including through skills and knowledge transfers and remittances. The EU Talent Pool should also support the implementation of Talent Partnerships, which are one of the key aspects of the external dimension of the Pact on Migration and Asylum6 and are operationalised in line with the Commission’s Communication on attracting skills and talent to the EU7 . The participation of a Member State in the Talent Partnership should be without prejudice to their decision on the participation in the EU Talent Pool. __________________ 6 COM/2020/609 final. 7 COM/2022/657 final.

(14) Registered jobseekers from third countries should have the right to choose from a number of technical options to restrict the access to their personal data, for instance, by restricting access to their contact details. Profiles of registered jobseekers from third countries and employers participating in the EU Talent Pool IT platform that have not been used for a period of two years should be automatically removed. When profiles are removed, a limited set of anonymised data could continue to be stored for research and statistical purposes including for the purpose of production and quality of European statisticsand those of employers that have not been used for a period of three years should be automatically removed. The owner of the profile should be notified about the removal at the latest one month in advance. When profiles are removed, a limited set of anonymised data could continue to be stored for research and statistical purposes including for the purpose of production and quality of European statistics in line with Art. 20 (1) under this Regulation. For profiles of registered jobseekers, data on nationality, desired or current occupation, possession of Talent Partnership pass, the time period that the profile was registered on the EU Talent Pool IT platform, the number of visits on the platform, the number of matches with employers, and the number of job placements facilitated could be stored.

(16) The EU Talent Pool should contribute to the objective of discouraging irregular and encouraging legal migration including by facilitating access to existing legal pathways. Jobseekers from third countries who are subject to a judicial or administrative decision refusing the entry or stay in a Member State or an entry ban in accordance with Directive 2008/115/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council11 , should not be allowed to register their profiles in the EU Talent Pool IT platform, given that they will not be permitted to enter and stay in the Union. To this end, jobseekers from third countries should be required, before registering their profiles in the EU Talent Pool, to declare that they are not currently subject to a refusal of entry or stay in a Member State or an entry ban to the territory of the Union. Information should also be provided on the consequences for making a false declaration in this respect. __________________ 11 Directive 2008/115/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 December 2008 on common standards and procedures in Member States for returning illegally staying third-country nationals (OJ L 348, 24.12.2008, p. 98, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/dir/2008/115/oj).

(19) In the context of Talent Partnerships, nationals of selected third countries receive support for the development and validation of skills in a framework endorsed by Member States taking part in a Talent Partnership and partner countries. Therefore, the skills developed or validated in the framework of a Talent Partnership should be certified by the ‘EU Talent Partnership pass’ which is visible in the context of the EU Talent Pool. Employers participating in the EU Talent Pool should be able to filter the profiles of registered jobseekers from third countries as to visualise those having obtained an ‘EU Talent Partnership pass’. This could encourage employers to offer a job placement in the Union. Member States, in the framework of a Talent Partnership and according to common harmonised guidelines to be issued by the Commission under an advisory procedure as specified in Article 12 (4) in line with Article 22 (2), should determine the conditions for the issuing of the ‘EU Talent Partnership pass’ for the purpose of the EU Talent Pool, including whether a partner country’s national authority, an international organisation or other stakeholder should support its deliver. The issuing of a ‘EU Talent Partnership pass’ is without prejudice to European and national rules on access to regulated professions.

Recital 21
(21) In the context of a Talent Partnership, skills development and validation may be targeted to the job market of one or more participating Member States. Member States may contribute, also financially, to developing and implementing the support to skills development and validation offered in the context of a Talent Partnership. Therefore, if so decided by the Member States participating in the Talent Partnership, only employers established in one or more Member States participating in a Talent Partnership should be able, for a maximum period of one year, to search for registered jobseekers holding an ‘EU Talent Partnership pass’. This possibility could, in particular, apply in cases where skills development was specifically targeted to the needs of a Member State. Information on whether this possibility is applied and in which cases should be provided on the EU Talent Pool IT platform, in order to inform registered jobseekers from third countries and employers participating in the EU Talent Pool. All employers participating in the EU Talent Pool may search the profiles of registered jobseekers holding an ‘EU Talent Partnership pass’ after this period of time has elapsed. Jobseekers from third countries who received support under a Talent Partnership should always have the possibility to register in the EU Talent Pool as any other third country national, without having to declare the existence ofJobseekers from third countries who received support under a Talent Partnership could link their profile to the certified ‘EU Talent Partnership pass’ on the EU Talent Pool IT platform to provide proof of their skills developed and validated within an ‘EU Talent Partnership pass’ and so be able to apply for jobs in other Member States.
