Despite the significant influx of foreign talent into
this country, we still find many clients who have no experience, or base
their opinion on what they have “heard”. We also find clients who may have
had a bad experience and don’t want to “try again”. In general, we have
found foreign trained professionals to have the same mix as any group. Most
are good, some are not and it is not wise to generalize from any one
experience. In fact, we have found these folks so grateful to have the
opportunity to work in the U.S.; that they are willing to work in places and
shifts that are generally undesirable. We have had better than average
loyalty (which translates into retention; and by treating them right, have
had generally more referrals than we could hire. We can and will present
both domestic and foreign trained candidates that fit the criteria the
client specifies.
One advantage we have in providing
foreign trained talent, is our ability to handle all the paperwork through
our “in-house immigration department”. Whether direct or contract
placement, the candidate is presented to you fully legal to work. Any
changes or extensions of visa, etc, is all handled with minimal concern and
effort on your part. As a primer, if you’re interested, we refer to you

terminology and processes.

Since they have done such a thorough job,
we are referring you to Immigration Specialties for details.
