OUR
RECRUITMENT FOCUS
IN COSTA RICA
Although
we recruit
across a very
wide range of
industries and
markets in Costa
Rica, much of
our recruitment
efforts is
related to:
- Regional
Headquarters
recruitment for
either Central
America or Latin
America as a
whole. This
could be in any
of the sectors
in which we
recruit.
- Back-Office
Regional Service
(usually requiring
bilingual
English/Spanish
managers)
- Medical
Devices
manufacturing
- Regional
hub for EPC,
agribusiness
(agroindustrial)

We
recruit experienced, internationally
trained Local and
Expatriate Senior

We
recruit Senior
Managers for mostly
North American and European companies
where the goal is to
increase local market
share or to increase
the efficiency of the
foreign business unit.
Often the best
solution is to recruit
Spanish-English
bilingual or
multilingual managers
who have strong track
records of success in
the markets of Costa
Rica, or in the
Latin American region
as a whole.
While we
try to focus on local
candidates whenever
available, we also
recruit foreign
managers, often fluent
Spanish speakers
coming from
the United States, other
Latin American
countries, Spain, or
Europe, who have
strong track records
of management in Costa
Rica.
Our
emphasis is to find
managers who perform
well in accordance
with the business
ethics and business
style of the foreign
company. The
objective is to find a
leader whom the foreign
company can trust to run
their business, while
effectively reaching
local
customers, suppliers, and employees
in a way that they will
find comforting.
Whenever
possible, we seek
candidates who have
worked at their best
in similar roles
at foreign firms,
often at our client's
direct competitors or
near-competitors.
Familiarity with the
target industry or
market sector usually
means faster success
and greater
organizational
effectiveness.
We
take particular care
to try to find people
who are accustomed to
working in a business
model that resembles
that of the client
company. A person
who works well at a
top Costa Rica
enterprise, or even at
a large
multinational firm,
for example, might not
be the right person as
employee #1 at a
medium-sized foreign
firm's greenfield
business unit in Costa
Rica.
Searches
might be at
the Latin America
regional level, CAFTA
regional level, or Costa
Rica national level.
We have a
strong interest in
managerial candidates
from all industries
who are multilingual,
with strong skills in
Spanish, English and
Portuguese. Such
candidates could be
particularly
considered for
regional Latin America
managerial roles.
