The world is undergoing a profound transformation. A new global order is emerging, with China's rise as a key global player and increasing geopolitical tensions. Globalization is giving way to deglobalization and protectionism, and uncertainty has become the norm. In this complex context, companies' ability to expand internationally and find the best talent in every corner of the world is more crucial than ever. Servitalent positions itself as an essential strategic partner in this process, as demonstrated by our successful first quarter of 2025 in international recruitment.

Expanding a business into new markets like Germany, Mexico, or the United States presents significant challenges. These include identifying qualified candidates, adapting to cultural differences, complying with local regulations, and retaining key talent. To overcome these barriers, companies need effective tools and strategies for managing global talent.

Expanding into new markets is a strategic goal for many companies, but conducting talent selection processes abroad without a local team can be a risky endeavor. Companies with international operations face unique challenges when attempting to manage these processes remotely. To ensure effective hiring, it is essential to understand the risks of recruiting in foreign countries and how to mitigate these obstacles intelligently and strategically.

2024 has marked a year of extraordinary achievements for Servitalent in international recruitment. This success wouldn’t have been possible without the unwavering support and excellence of our global partners. We want to take this opportunity to express our heartfelt gratitude to them. Their professionalism and commitment have empowered Spanish companies that trust us to access top-tier talent worldwide.
