How to start a international recruitment agency

So on the Kadz Money Youtube recruitment channel we have covered a lot of videos on how to set up a staffing or recruiting business. But one of the most popular business models is an international recruitment agency, filling the skills gaps in the UK or USA with overseas staff.

You can see from this article on the governments website https://www.gov.uk/browse/visas-immigration/work-visas how people can work or live in the UK and under what visa.

The benefits of this agency type

– Highly scaleable and possibly more profitable than a domestic agency
– Interntional agencies will find you highly skilled staff for free
– Huge demand to cover to the UK
– Highly skilled staff that companies demand
– Help your country fill the skills gaps

The down side of an international agency

– A lack of education on the employer side or preconceived notions of overseas staff.
– Takes much longer to make placements
– More paperwork and red tape
– Visa delays or rejections
