Foreign Recruitment Services

The most important factor in recruiting is choosing the right people. Through our global associate network, World Talent Staffing Services can offer your business an extensive selection of qualified candidates. All World Talent candidates are pre-screened, tested and motivated to work for Canadian businesses. World Talent will recruit the best workers for your business, whether inside or outside of Canada.

Most businesses do not have the time or desire to be specialists in foreign recruiting. World Talent Staffing Services specializes in this field, and will manage the process from start to finish with minimal effort on your part.

Immigration Consultants VS Employment Agencies

  • Immigration Consultants assist foreign workers to obtain visas and work permits for Canada. (i.e. the Immigration Consultant works for the employee.)
  • Employment Agencies assist employers to recruit the best workers. (i.e. the Employment Agency works for the employer.)

Foreign workers often retain immigration consulting firms to find work in Canada. They motivate the firm to find them a job - any job. If they do, a work permits and visa application are required; and if the worker stays in Canada, an expensive permanent residency application may result.

World Talent Staffing Services is a licensed Employment Agency, and our only client is you the employer. We use immigration consultants as required, but our recruiting is done with the best interest of the employers in mind. We have no obligation to any worker, and receive no benefit by recommending one candidate over another.

Advantages of foreign workers

Our foreign workers offer employers many advantages:

  • Quality. Many nations offer large and well trained labour forces to choose from. This allows our global network to choose exceptional candidates from a large pool of qualified workers.
  • Productivity. Our foreign workers come here to do a job! Most do not have family or social distractions in Canada, which makes for a reliable work force.
  • Stability. Offshore workers must work for the employer named on their work permit. Reduced staff turnover saves employers money, and creates a workforce that can be relied upon.
  • Flexibility. Our candidates are chosen for their flexibility in the workplace. Since they are already away from home, working in remote locations isn't the problem it is for resident Canadians.
