rekryterats

Rekryterats is a Swedish verb form meaning “has been recruited.” It is the passive past participle (perfekt particip) of the verb rekrytera, and is used to form passive constructions that indicate recruitment has taken place. The form is common in HR reporting, corporate communications, and public-sector contexts.

Formation and usage: Rekryterats appears with auxiliary verbs such as har (present perfect) or hade (past perfect) to express that recruitment has occurred. Example: Nya medarbetare har rekryterats av företaget. In other tenses, the active form rekryterade serves past tense, while rekrytera is the infinitive. Rekryterats is not typically used as a standalone attributive adjective; the related form rekryterad is used to describe something or someone that has been recruited.

Etymology: Rekrytera is a loanword originating from the French recruter (to recruit), with adoption into Swedish during the early modern period through contact with other European languages.
