We recruit your international profiles:
A tailor-made approach
When it comes to international recruitment, what could be more appropriate than a dedicated, tailor-made approach?
Once your recruitment needs have been defined, we analyze the environment of the position to be filled to create an action plan adapted to the region and its job market. The team in charge of your recruitment is then in a position to implement a highly-targeted direct approach methodology, interviewing and rapidly presenting the first potential candidates.

Multicultural sensitivity
Our experienced international recruitment consultants are fluent in one or more foreign languages and have developed a multicultural approach to securing the best candidates on an international scale.
Demonstrating open-mindedness, curiosity and an ability to adapt to differences in behavior, values and traditions, they are capable of building positive intercultural relationships.

An even more precise assessment
We assess candidates' communication skills in our client's working language, but that's not all... Their professional experience, their skills, their motivations, their fit with your corporate culture - these are all points we validate during our selection process of potential candidates.
International recruitment requires us to be able to validate the expertise of candidates in local markets, using adapted reference systems: being able to value their career paths, their training, their salaries... these are all subjects that require us to call on a recruitment agency specialized in international recruitment, with in-depth knowledge of local markets.

Mission challenges :
Firstly, the search for profiles with a high level of technical skills, already in great demand in a situation of labor shortage, and in an international context, required us to structure and sequence our approach.
Secondly, our customer's business sector and technical environment (he was facing complex issues in terms of architecture evolution, technological migrations and mobile application redesign), also accentuated the difficulty of the mission to find the rare pearl.

Resources deployed :
A dedicated team of recruitment consultants was put in place. With the help of the Head of Engineering and the Human Resources Manager, we analyzed the real needs, defined the skills required and the profile of the ideal candidate for the position. We fine-tuned the pitch for the position and drew up a comprehensive description to help us structure our international headhunting strategy: list of countries corresponding to the specifications (salary levels, training, etc.), list of foreign companies with similar technical stacks.
Around a hundred European companies, across all industries, startups and scaleups, were selected and targeted in line with the recruitment strategy defined by the headhunting team. We then proceeded with the precise identification of the profiles to be approached within these companies, and 700 target candidates were contacted for our client in a direct recruitment approach. These potential candidates were not looking for a job, so we had to pursue two objectives: seduction and selection.
