The Dominican Republic is the Best/Closest to the USA location to hire and train remote & lower cost recruiting staff.
The video at bottom of page shows Isaac who we recruited in the DR, provided our recruiter/sourcing training program and set up to work with a company in New York as a (remote) recruiter trainee.
Since, Isaac has been promoted to full recruiter and is now the company's recruiting leader and works direct with hiring managers. By working remote from the DR Isaac's cost is 50% less than if he was in the mainland USA.
This comment is for leaders of talent acquisition in corporations and staffing/recruiting firms: We are not an offshore RPO. In fact, our business model is designed to eliminate RPOs and replace with a plan that helps you create, implement and control Your Own Nearshore Lower Cost Staff Operation. You are the Boss!
When using offshore RPOs they are basically same as call centers. You are renting their employees. It is impossible to get strong work ethic, loyalty, quality and commitment from people who are rented, extra and expendable.
Here is our common sense alternative. Our American corporation owned and sold 2 staffing firms. Due to the high cost and turnover of young college grads in the USA as recruiter and sales trainees we experimented with offshore RPOs.
Sadly, our experience with RPOs was negative so we cancelled.
We then researched countries in Latin America & South America and selected the Dominican Republic in the Caribbean as the best country to form a human resources corporation to hire and payroll people as OUR nearshore/lower cost staff operation.
The DR has the best pool of English/Spanish speaking college educated people who are excellent for jobs such as sourcing, recruiting, back-office accounting, account management etc. And, electricity & internet are superior to other nearshore countries.
Only when you have 100% control over the people same as long term career employees and they think of you as a potential long term career employer can there be work ethic, loyalty, commitment and quality. This is common sense if you think of it.
When we sold the staffing firms we kept the Dominican HR company. Today, you can use our American/Dominican HR company as a shortcut to recruit, hire and payroll excellent people as YOUR recruiter/sourcer trainees and create your own Nearshore lower cost staff operation.
A - This is similar to your hiring career employees in the USA through an HR company like ADP or Paychex. Except, our HR company and people are in the Dominican Republic where the cost to hire can be 50% less than local employees at your USA location.
Remember, with RPOs, Virtual Assistant Firms, Call Centers and other outsourcing companies you are renting their employees = never works out good.
With us, we are helping you find, hire, payroll, train and manage people to work directly as YOUR remote & lower cost recruiting and sourcing staff. These are two totally different situations.
We created this business model knowing the only way to get loyalty, quality and longevity is when you and your nearshore staff think of each other as on the same team and where there is potential to grow careers working together long term.
B - Turnover can be lower than with USA staff and you can easily fly to the DR to spend time with your person or team. This is not India or the Philippines. The Dominican Republic is less than 2 hours from Miami.
Your Company > Our USA Corp > Our Dominican HR company > Isaac in the DR works direct for you!
In this example Isaac works for you same as a long-term career employee, for half the cost of your USA location and we fit in the middle as the HR/payroll provider.
No money from your company flows outside the USA and there is no legal connection between your company and Isaac in the DR.
Isaac can grow a long career with your company without any risk of lawsuits from disgruntled employees, no payroll, FICA or other taxes, no cost for health or other insurance and none of the overhead costs of a USA based employee.
The video below starts with Isaac explaining the basics. He then breaks so you can stop, or mark the spot to come back or just continue as he then goes into a detailed explanation. If you are a leader or TA or staffing/recruiting making time to view the interview video is well worth it.
Finally, up at top of page in the menu are the Contact Us Buttons, articles that comment on AI recruiters vs. human recruiters and hiring recruiter trainees vs. experienced recruiters.
Enjoy the video and imagine your having people like Isaac working for you same as long term career employees for half the cost of your USA location.
