How We Screen for International Roles
International searches add timezone, relocation, visa, and cross-cultural communication complexity. We account for all of it.
Cross-border logistics first
We surface visa requirements, relocation expectations, timezone overlap, and compensation benchmarks before presenting candidates to avoid wasted time on both sides.
Fit over keyword match
We calibrate on environment, must-haves versus nice-to-haves, candidate constraints, and motivation rather than title match and years of experience regardless of geography.
Semiconductor and software network
Our international network is strongest in semiconductor hubs including Japan, Taiwan, South Korea, and the Netherlands, and in software hubs across Europe and the UK.
