The Hiring Challenge
The client was new to Kuwait and sought to gain vital knowledge of the hiring process in this region. They anticipated that they would need to hire multiple expatriates, and required guidance in determining which nationalities they were able to hire.
In unfamiliar terrain, the client did not know where to start and relied upon the expertise of NES Fircroft to build the foundation of their hiring strategy.
What the client wanted:
- Vast knowledge of hiring regulations in-country
- A recruitment partner who would help to structure their workforce foundation
- Multiple skilled expatriate contractors with specialised skills to develop software
Our Solution
With a local office in Ahmadi, we educated the client through providing first-hand experience and expert advice on realistic timelines, the legislation involved, and where to concentrate their recruitment drive.
We were involved from a very early stage in the hiring process, which meant we were able to inform the client of prospective challenges and explain how we would mitigate and overcome them.
Our consultancy ensured the client had a viable workforce structure from day 1:
- We worked with them to plan the types of hires and roles they would need to optimise their output. This included planning for both junior and senior roles.
- Comprehensive candidate qualification.
- Delivering a bespoke and clear solution for their needs by implementing dedicated timelines to fill each role.
The Results of Our Support
Utilising our international talent network we sourced and mobilised candidates from India, Lebanon, and Tunisia. We filled 7 key roles on this project and have multiple future roles in the pipeline. Placements to date include:
- Full Stack Developers
- Full Stack Team Lead
- Front-end Developer/Senior Developers
The full time hires we sourced will be integral in developing the client’s specialist technology.
Our close working relationship with the management and technical teams, paired with our hiring success, means the client will continue to work with us on their future projects.
