Navigating Talent Gaps

The Situation

A large construction firm needed a solution to source, test, and onboard skilled workers in an area experiencing a shortage of skills. Candidates with the required expertise were in extremely high demand, and the usual sources for staff were either too expensive or unavailable. Leveraging its global network, VHR was able to explore alternative markets to find the right talent and facilitate their placement on the project with full visas and work rights.

The Solution

VHR’s global talent network sourced candidates from five different locations to meet the client's specific needs for skills and qualifications. VHR managed a series of international interviews, with the client traveling to meet potential staff. Additionally, VHR conducted local trade tests and screenings to ensure all requirements were met. Once the candidates were screened, VHR collaborated with the client to secure visas and work rights for the selected staff.

The Outcome

The client successfully sourced the necessary talent to meet their project needs. They gained control over costs and avoided the escalating salaries driven by competition. The partnership between the client and VHR established a sustainable method for delivering additional staff as project demands arise, ensuring a steady supply of skilled workers for ongoing and future projects.
