PEO – Direct Hire

June15 Consulting, based in Toronto, offers the approach of having overseas talent work directly for you through a PEO (Professional Employer Organization). Here’s how to think about the difference.

• Instead of hiring temporary resources from BPOs, what if you hired your own people? Wouldn’t you get better quality results if you fully owned and controlled your offshore team — if they reported to you, and only to you? The answer is very likely Yes.
• What if you could offload some of your team’s overload at a lower cost and get better margins? Your practice is more profitable while your team gets a better work-life balance. Doesn’t that play into better retention? Again: Yes.

You may decide you don’t want to take PE money. Even so, you will compete with firms that do and are already hiring direct to scale fast and improve margins. When you go direct, you are building your team. When your long-term success is less dependent on staffing, you strengthen your independence.

Hiring overseas employees sounds daunting. June15 makes it easy. They guide you one-on-one through every step — from hiring to managing employees — and provide local support like buying laptops, setting up office space, and resolving any issues that come up.
