3 risks of hiring remote workers internationally (and how to avoid them)

Looking to expand globally or hire talent internationally and not sure how to go about it?

There are definitely challenges when it comes to navigating the global hiring landscape. 3 key risks right now that need to be addressed when embarking on a global hiring journey include:

1️⃣ Candidate Fraud: From copy & paste CVs, to suspicious video interviews – how do you know the candidate you are talking to is legitimate and not acting as a proxy for someone else? (The recent State of TA report found 38% of organisations are experiencing candidate fraud)

2️⃣ Complying with local labour laws and conditions: Do you know how much annual leave employees are entitled to in your new markets? What about payroll tax? Or what do you do when you can’t even find the local employment guidelines for the country you’re trying to move into?

3️⃣ Providing the right advice to your C-Suite: If your ELT came to you tomorrow asking for advice on the labour markets in different regions and how that could factor into the organisation’s expansion plans, what would you tell them?

In this webinar, which took place on Thursday 20th June 2024 our panellists peeled back the perceived complexities of global hiring. Kim Boland, CPO of global mining technology company Chrysos Corporation, also shared her experiences of how they expanded into 10 countries in 4 regions and how they manage their global talent.
