# IMAGE_PROMPT – Personalbeschaffung

**Last Updated:** 2026-02-25

## Scene Type

**CAFE** – Distinct from recruiting (DESK), personalmarketing (SILHOUETTES), employer-branding (ABSTRACT). Team/HR context: HR professionals or hiring managers in a collaborative setting, evoking talent acquisition and team building.

## Core Concept / Metaphor

Personalbeschaffung = finding and selecting the right people – the candidate shortlist moment (Kandidatensichtung, Auswahl). Focus on selection, curation, bringing the right talent to the organization.

## Key Elements (On-Theme, Concrete)

- Hiring manager or HR professional at a meeting table
- Small stack of blank folders or papers (candidate shortlist metaphor – no text)
- Soft morning or natural daylight, warm tones
- Business-casual attire, lived-in professional setting
- No text, no signs, no readable content

## Why Not (Anti-Patterns)

- Abstract nodes, flowing lines, soft connected structure – too cryptic
- Desk-only solo shot with laptop – overlaps with recruiting
- Silhouettes – overlaps with personalmarketing
- Abstract geometric shapes – overlaps with employer-branding
- Generic cafe interior – too generic; selection moment is more on-theme

## Composition / Camera

Medium shot, shallow depth of field – hands and shortlist in focus, background softly blurred. Conveys the act of selection and curation.

## Mood / Atmosphere

Professional, focused, deliberate – the careful selection of talent.

## Prompt

Editorial photography, natural texture, soft film-like quality. Scene: Hiring manager or HR professional at a meeting table, carefully reviewing a small stack of blank folders or papers – the candidate shortlist moment. Soft morning light through window, warm tones, business-casual attire, lived-in professional setting. Conveys talent acquisition, candidate selection, and bringing the right people to the organization. Medium shot, shallow depth of field. Avoid: blue sphere, sundial shape, generic clock, floating pie chart, stock office with laptop, vertical columns, stacked blocks, abstract nodes, flowing lines, pristine perfection, spotless desk, cafe interior, generic handshake, silhouettes. CRITICAL: No text, letters, typography, signs, or readable content.
