Method

Why we do not source blue-collar workers from CVs

On volume trades a CV reflects nothing: a skill grade can be bought, experience is written from the candidate’s own account. We verify the skill before anyone pays for a ticket.

A recruiter network in country, not job boards

Candidates are brought in by our own people on the ground — from workshops, crews and vocational colleges. That is how you find qualifications that never reach open databases.

Work video instead of a CV

The candidate films the operation: laying a weld, running a machine, laying brick, sewing a seam. You judge the skill, not a list of former employers.

Self-presentation video

A second video about the person: how they speak, what they expect from the job. It filters out those who will not travel or will leave within a month.

Documents and background

Passport, education and skill-grade certificates, criminal record certificate, medical fitness.

Pre-departure preparation

Basic safety, everyday rules, expectations about schedule and climate. This is what drives retention past month three.

Aftercare on day 7, 30 and 90

Check-ins after arrival. If someone is struggling we hear about it before you do — in time to fix it or replace them.

Timeline

What happens and when

Request and role profile

We work out who you need: skill level, grade, headcount, shift pattern, accommodation. We tell you straight away which country makes more sense and what that means for the timeline.

24 hours

Legal setup check

We calculate your permitted share of foreign workers for your activity code and region, and check whether a quota and hiring permit are required. If the share does not allow it, we propose outstaffing.

1–2 days

Sourcing in country

We search through our own network of recruiters, not job-board CVs. For blue-collar trades that is the only way to get the actual skill grade you asked for.

4–7 days

Screening and work video

Phone interview, skill verified by a work video and a self-presentation video, document and criminal-record checks.

2–4 days

Shortlist for your approval

You get profiles with video. You choose, and can interview online if you want to.

48 hours

Documents, visa, logistics

Invitation letter, work permit, medical clearance, consular procedures, flights, airport pickup.

3–6 weeks

Arrival and aftercare

Onboarding on site, help with migration registration, check-ins on day 7, 30 and 90. Free replacement within 90 days.

Commercial terms

How we charge

Payment on results

The bulk of the fee falls due when the worker actually starts on site, not when the search begins. We do not charge for a "sourcing process" that may end in nothing.

An advance applies only where we carry direct costs ourselves: consular procedures, medicals and tickets in visa countries.

90-day replacement guarantee

Wrong skill level, poor fit, or they resign — we replace them free of charge within three months of the start date.

This is not marketing but a consequence of the method: with work-video screening, replacements are rare enough that we can afford the promise.

FAQ

What employers ask most

What does foreign staff recruitment cost?

The fee depends on skill level and how rare the trade is, and is mostly payable when the worker starts on site. An advance is taken only against direct costs in visa countries: consular procedures, medicals, tickets. A quote for your list of roles comes within one business day.

How do you verify a worker’s qualification?

By work video: the candidate films the operation for your profile — a weld, a part on a machine, brickwork. Plus a self-presentation video, education and skill-grade documents, a criminal record certificate and medical fitness. You get the profiles with video before deciding.

How quickly can you fill a position?

First shortlist 48–72 hours after a confirmed request. Arrival on site in 3–5 weeks from visa-free countries and 5–8 weeks from visa countries, where a permit, invitation and consular stage are required.

Do you only recruit blue-collar workers?

Our core is line and blue-collar staff: construction, manufacturing, warehousing, logistics, facilities, food and garment production. We source foremen, supervisors and QC technicians alongside worker crews, but we do not run office recruitment as a separate stream.

Foreign staff recruitment: how to choose a provider

The foreign recruitment market is opaque: there are often two or three intermediaries between client and candidate, each adding margin and losing time, while the client sees the same proposal with the same promises from everyone. Below are the questions whose answers actually separate providers.

Four questions worth asking before signing

  • Who exactly searches for the candidate. Own recruiters in the source country, or does the request go to a partner? This determines both the timeline and whether you can change anything mid-process.
  • How the qualification is verified. If the answer is "by education certificates", that means nothing in blue-collar trades. A work video of the operation being performed does.
  • Who answers for the share and the permits. A serious provider calculates your permitted share by activity code and region before sourcing starts and tells you whether a quota is needed. If that conversation never happens, you are buying risk.
  • What the replacement guarantee covers. Duration, grounds, and who pays for the repeat flight. "3-month guarantee" without those details does not work in practice.

What recruitment cannot solve

Direct recruitment runs into the permitted share. If the limit for your activity code is full — and after the construction share was cut to 50% for 2026 that is a common situation — no amount of searching will let you put more foreign workers on your payroll. In that case the answer is not recruitment but outstaffing, where the workers sit on the provider’s payroll. We calculate this on the first call so as not to waste your time or ours.

Where we bring people from

India is the deepest pool for welding, CNC, masonry and garment production. Bangladesh covers volume construction and warehousing. Vietnam gives assembly and food production with the lowest turnover of any direction we have run. Sri Lanka supplies finishing trades, crafts and hospitality, with part of the pool speaking English. Bhutan is a small but steady flow into construction and facilities. Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan are the visa-free direction, where the gain is speed: 3–5 weeks against 5–8 for visa countries.
