Over the years of EvoTalents' existence, we have had many different clients: those who wanted to fill only one vacancy and those who wanted to work with many of them at the same time; Ukrainian and foreign companies. Thanks to this experience, we have learned to find a unique approach to each of our clients. As an IT recruiting agency, we understand how important such expertise is. Therefore, we want to use this knowledge to help as many companies as possible to find their ideal specialists even abroad. So we finally decided to enter the British market!
Why? International Recruitment Agencies in Ukraine
The reasons for entering foreign markets can be completely different depending on the situation and goals of a particular agency. We have collected some common ones to share them with you. And we also immediately invite you to our Instagram, where under the post "EvoTalents' entry into the foreign market," you can write a good reason in your opinion for expanding and exploring foreign labor markets.
Common reasons:
- Expanding opportunities: Entering the international market allows recruiting companies to increase their potential. After all, this is an opportunity to work with new types of businesses, a larger number of clients, and to expand your knowledge base.
- International experience: Working with international clients helps gain valuable experience of working with different cultures, laws, and business practices. This experience can improve both internal work processes and company services in general. Additionally, it can contribute to the development of the Ukrainian IT recruiting community.
- Diversification of risks: Entering the international market allows reducing the risk of changes in the economic situation in Ukraine.
- Competitive advantage: Ukraine has a large number of talented IT professionals, and their skills and knowledge are well-known worldwide. Recruiting companies can use this competitive advantage to attract foreign clients seeking quality IT professionals.
Foreign Recruitment Agencies in the UK
Studying potential competitors, we have drawn many conclusions about the work of recruitment agencies in the UK. We believe that this knowledge can be useful to other companies considering expanding their horizons. So:
- Almost all the companies analyzed by us have professional blogs related to our EvoTalents Blog. They aim to be helpful and showcase their expertise.
- The services include permanent and contract recruitment (essentially similar to RPO), sourcing, and "recruitment with soul" - i.e., recruitment personnel not only based on technical skills but also on psychological fit. It is worth reminding that, for example, EvoTalents always offers high-quality recruitment, considering all the features of clients and candidates. This way, companies find their perfect match in all parameters, and candidates find job satisfaction.
- Social networks have very little significance. Almost all companies use either LinkedIn or Facebook. If Instagram or other platforms are present, they usually repost information. Networking and attending professional events are more important in the UK.
HR recruiters are independent units
In the UK, companies promote their recruiters as professionals whom clients should know face to face. This strategy is effective if you want the client to be familiar with the person they will be working with before starting the collaboration (it's about building trust and the idea that people are naturally drawn to people). At EvoTalents, we also strive to frequently showcase our team and internal working processes. We are proud of our team and seek to maintain open and professional communication within our community!
