Hiring people from abroad and even setting up entire departments abroad has become the norm. More and more foreigners are working in both small and large companies. Read our guide to international recruitment.
International recruitment has become commonplace for many employers and recruiters. However, for some, the process still seems quite complicated. We will try to dispel these doubts and encourage employers to hire foreign workers.
What are the advantages of hiring foreign workers?
- Expansion into foreign markets. A foreign worker can become an expert or business development assistant in the home country.
- A foreigner employed in our company gives us the chance to know and experience a different perspective on running a business.
- A foreigner can create content in their native language and establish business relationships without fear of cultural differences.
- The expansion of recruitment in foreign countries will significantly increase the chances of finding the right person for the proposed position.
- The hiring process for both EU and non-EU people has been simplified to the maximum – so the issue of formalities becomes a secondary issue
International recruitment – what to consider
Before you decide to recruit internationally, consider:
- Who do you want to hire? Create a detailed candidate profile including: experience, education, skills, language skills, country of origin
- Do the foreign candidate’s skills match your requirements? See commonalities between the candidate’s skills and education and the requirements and rules of employment of the proposed position.
- What formalities must be completed? It is important to find out about the country of origin of the potential candidate. Can we hire him legally in our country?
After hiring a foreigner, if possible, they should be helped to:
- integrate into the new workplace
- find an apartment
- complete and send all the necessary formalities
- be guided in the logistics of traveling to work / home / shops / offices
