Operating within the international recruitment space I often get questioned on the benefits of recruiting internationally. I can go on for days explaining why recruiting internationally is truly beneficial not only to one’s organisation, but also to the economy of the intended country.
The main point I usually respond with is that there are people in different countries who are overflowing with skills, talent and knowledge and are looking for opportunities in countries such as Australia to prove themselves and essentially provide a better life for their families.
Another major benefit of hiring internationally is that the international candidates’ qualifications are recognized in Australia and can be transferred to Australian standards, which means these candidates can seamlessly integrate into the workforce system.
I believe international recruitment is not spoken about enough. The reason behind this statement is that far too many companies around Australia tend to have negative perceptions and a lack of familiarity with the world of international recruitment. Many think the process is far too lengthy and not worth it, but based on the clients we have assisted with workers from around the world, they have reaped their benefits by gaining staff who are committed to their organisation, adding diversity to the workplace, access to international talent and more.
With candidates coming from countries across Africa, South East Asia and South America, we hear of their challenging stories which fuels their motivation and attitude to start a new life and work towards theirs and their family’s future.
We follow a strict process to ensure the candidate is the right fit for our client and our client a right fit for the candidate.
With that being said, the feeling knowing you are not only assisting your client with their hiring needs, but also assisting someone pursue their dreams and aspirations which leads to a better life for themselves and their families, is priceless.
I hold a strong belief in the impact of genuine human connection and in my role as an International Recruiter, I am dedicated to turning what might seem like an overwhelming process into improved chances for professional growth.
Our process is more than just supplying international candidates to our clients, but also building relationships with both candidate and client that foster longevity.
We take pride in offering an extensive end-to-end service that ensures smooth operations which proves to be beneficial for both the candidate and the client.
There is far more to it than just matching an individual to a job description.
