Culturepot Business Services
While it is often
possible to find the right candidate within the UK sometimes businesses that have difficulties
filling vacancies recruit from the wider EU and beyond. The
good news is that there is a vast resource of highly skilled and motivated
workers keen to join UK based companies.
Where there is a genuine shortage in the
UK the enlarged EU and developing economies provide progressive businesses the
means to select recruit and retain workers with the key skills that they need,
easily, cost effectively, and from a virtually unlimited pool of candidates.
Key to successful international recruitment is an understanding of the
processes involved. It is a very high risk strategy for employers to engage
international workers without a clear understanding of the rules, rules that are
strictly enforced by the UK Border Agency.
With the right approach international recruitment can provide
high retention rates. It can be a low cost, low risk solution to the
problem of maintaining a stable workforce and an effective method of bringing
specialist skills into your business.
This is where Culturepot can help.
The business Principal has worked with many clients
including some of the UK’s leading employers helping them to select place and retain over 5000 UK and international workers.
