Recruitment – Strategies for getting the talent you need to drive US growth
International firms must adapt their recruiting strategies if they want to be successful in finding and maintaining top talent in the US.
Investors need to consider cultural differences and nuances that could have a significant impact on screening and communicating with prospects. Likewise, recruiting practices and employment regulations can differ from state to state in addition to on average presenting clear differences with the how recruitment is approached in a firm’s domestic market.
Thus, many UK firms seek out local professional recruitment providers and/or partners in the US that can help guide across effective tactics and essential compliance saving them time and heartburn from what can be costly mistakes.
In episode 3 of the America Made Easy Podcast, we consider the recent employment landscape in the US with Alex Mozota, Vice President for Recruiting at Avitus Group who brings a wealth of knowledge from years spent implementing effective recruiting strategies for clients across the US. We cover the unique challenges faced by international investors and ways they can approach recruiting to meet the needs of their company.

Investors will walk away with key insights on topics ranging from salary negotiation to labour regulations so that they can streamline their approach to recruiting top talent in the US.

Value Bombs from the Podcast
- Over 49% of Americans receive healthcare benefits from their employers given a lack of a healthcare offering at the federal level—this means investors need to consider what benefits are competitive to offer in their industry and tailor that employee package of benefits accordingly.
- At will hiring and firing provides both employers and employees tremendous flexibility but also creates challenges for maintaining talent which foreign investors must prepare for.
