the existing e-goverment infrastructure in Greece, the benefits and obstacles of the
adoption of this promising trend for the recruitment process in public sector. More
precisely ASEP which is an independent authority that acts as the institutional
guardian for meritocracy regarding recruitment in Greek public administrator aims
through the QualiChain research project to take advantage of the blockchain
technology so as to improve and simplify the recruitment and competency
management procedures.
