Offshore recruitment
Offshore recruitment for growing businesses.
ScaleHorse designs the role, searches global talent markets and presents a shortlist of three vetted candidates — for one recruitment fee, with a six-month replacement guarantee.
What offshore recruitment actually involves
Offshore recruitment is not simply posting a job advertisement in a lower-cost market. Done properly, it starts with a clear view of the work: which tasks are repeatable, which require local presence and which can be performed by a capable person anywhere.
We start there. Before we advertise anything, we work with you to identify the work that can move, define the responsibilities and agree what good performance looks like in the first ninety days.
Why the role design matters more than the job ad
Most disappointing offshore hires trace back to a vague brief. When responsibilities, decision rights and KPIs are undefined, even a strong candidate struggles to produce results — and the business concludes that offshoring doesn't work.
A clearly designed role changes the outcome. It sharpens the search, filters candidates faster and gives your new team member something concrete to succeed against.
One recruitment fee, no ongoing markup
Many offshore staffing providers charge a permanent margin on every hour your team member works. ScaleHorse charges a one-time recruitment fee of $3,500 USD: $500 to begin the search and $3,000 when you select your candidate.
Your team member's ongoing compensation is arranged directly by you. Employment, payroll, contractor and EOR arrangements depend on your circumstances and applicable laws, and we can explain the available options without providing legal or tax advice.
