Toolbox The Opportunity to Hire International Talent – Seminar 2

Navigating the Realities of International Recruitment

Hiring international talent opens the door to new skills, perspectives and global reach — but it also comes with a set of practical challenges that organisations need to understand and plan for. From immigration rules to relocation logistics, the process of bringing international expertise on board is often more complex than expected.

In this seminar, we will explore what is essential to know when recruiting international expertise, both within the EU and from outside it, and what kind of support exists to make the process smoother.

You will gain insights into:

• The immigration process – what employers need to know when hiring from within and outside the EU.
• Relocation – key considerations for helping international hires settle in successfully.
• Recruitment planning – how to plan ahead and avoid common pitfalls in international hiring.
• Residence and work permits – what's involved in extensions and keeping employees compliant over time.
