How to find top international talents in 2024

Due to difficulties attracting local talent, more and more companies in Germany are recognizing the need to tap into the vast potential offered by international hiring.

By opening your recruiting to international talents, you increase your chances to find highly-skilled employees. Because you are acccessing a bigger talent pool.

However, if you’re looking to hire internationally are also facing specific challenges. In this blog article, we want to first look at those challenges. And then show you what you can do overcome them. So you can hire the best talents for your open roles.

Common challenges when recruiting internationally

1. Where to post your job?

Many companies in Germany find themselves wondering where to best post their jobs open to internationals. Some job portals reach the wrong audience, resulting in applications that don’t fit the job ad. Other portals are too expensive. And there is almost no portal focused on top international talents exclusively (with some notable exception – stay tuned reading below!)

2. How to not be overwhelmed by applications?

Posting you job might also result in a flood of applications that don’t fit your requirements. This creates an additional workload for the recruiting team, diverting their focus from strategic tasks to sift through irrelevant applications. 

3. How to ensure a good candidate experience?

A high volume of applications can compromise the candidate experience. Companies may find it challenging to respond to each application promptly, leading to the unfortunate practice of “ghosting” candidates – an experience that can negatively impact your employer brand. Especially in today’s time, where candidates can share their experience with millions of others talents in minutes.

4. How to control costs?

Traditional job portals can be expensive, reaching up to prices of 1.000€ per job  and with no guarantee they will yield the desired results. This makes it crucial for companies to explore more cost-effective and efficient alternatives.
