Transform your 2025 talent acquisition strategy

Global hiring isn’t just about finding the right people; it is about understanding where and how to hire strategically. Companies that leverage workforce intelligence can uncover emerging talent hubs, assess competitive salary benchmarks, and navigate regional hiring trends with confidence.

In a jobs market where more than three-quarters of employers are experiencing difficulty in filling roles, international workforce intelligence –– coupled with a data-driven approach to international operations –– can help organizations make informed decisions, ensuring they attract and retain top talent and stay ahead of market shifts.

As a result, both large companies and SMEs are increasingly relying on global Employers of Record (EOR) to expand rapidly into new markets and outperform their competitors. Working with an EOR will offer businesses that are facing local talent shortages a fast, cost-effective, and compliant way to access global talent.

By outsourcing employment-related risks and administration, companies can focus on scaling their business, fostering innovation, and entering new markets with minimal friction. When combined with workforce intelligence, an EOR partner enables businesses to identify untapped talent pools, refine their compensation strategies, and adapt to local market dynamics.

  • Workforce Intelligence for Strategic Hiring: Atlas and Unearthodox worked together to identify new talent pools and refine hiring strategies using regional workforce data.

  • Complex Employment Laws: Navigating the intricate and varied employment regulations across different countries posed a significant hurdle.

  • Payroll and Benefits Management: Ensuring accurate and compliant payroll processing, along with appropriate benefits administration, required substantial resources and expertise.

  • Legal Compliance: Maintaining adherence to local labor laws and contractual obligations was essential to mitigate risks and uphold the organization's integrity.

Atlas’ expert approach to global hiring and deep knowledge of over 160 markets helped this organization drive operational efficiency, while maintaining its commitments to diversity.
