Nearshoring is the future of global talent. Here's why: For decades, companies have sought the promise of more affordable labor and wider talent pools by sending jobs to countries and regions like India, the Philippines, and Eastern Europe. While offshoring offered undeniable short-term savings, its long-term viability is now on the decline. A recent World Economic Forum report indicated that nearly half (44%) of an individual worker's skills will need to be updated within the next five years to keep pace with technological advancements and evolving industry demands. This underscores the growing need for businesses to access global talent to fill these gaps, which can be done more effectively through nearshore partnerships rather than the traditional offshore model often challenged by ineffective communication and collaboration. We've examined some of those challenges, and have concluded that nearshoring is quickly becoming the go-to solution for global talent.

The Importance of Relationship-Building: Building strong, long-term relationships with candidates can lead to better recruitment outcomes, especially in competitive markets. 4. Recruiting Is About More Than Just Technical Skills: While technical expertise is essential, cultural fit and a candidate’s soft skills are just as important. 5.
