Global Marketing And Digital Agencies Are Hiring From India, But Should You Too?

Between 2018-2022, 62.5% of global businesses from US, UK, and AUS relied on Indian remote talents for key operational roles. India is the most preferred remote hiring destination, miles ahead of LatAm, East EU, and East Asia. But why are global marketing and digital agencies hiring from India? Let us find out.

Why agencies are hiring remotely from India 

Massive talent pool

India has 5 million tech and digital talents in 2023, making it the second-largest tech talent pool after the United States. Korn Ferry predicts that the rest of the world will face a shortage of 85 million tech talents by 2030, while India will be the only country with a net surplus of 245 million talents.

Cost-effective hiring

Local talents in US, UK, AUS, and SA are 14% more expensive than their remote alternatives. Cost remains a crucial factor for employers and the recent recessions to US and EU are prompting companies to control their expenses. India proves to be very cost-effective for global employers, as the low cost of living influences lower salary demands.

Global-ready talents

Indian talents are ready to be onboarded to global companies and add value with their varied skills. According to reports, 83% of Indian talents plan to upskill and improve their candidature for more crucial roles in organizations. Also, 40% of Indian talents are willing to work for companies from a different time zone. These points present a good argument for Indian remote talents as a feasible alternative to talents from other regions.

Remote Hiring Checklist For Global Agencies

This handy checklist will help you in ensuring an effective remote hiring experience in India:

Understand the roles you are offshoring

You do not need to offshore all the roles at your organization. Rather, start from highlighting which roles are better sourced from other countries and can be managed in a distributed setup. Operations-based roles, such as a developer or a business development executive can be sourced and managed from offshore regions. Leadership roles, however, are better filled with local talents who can easily align with the company’s culture and hold multiple meetings seamlessly.

Find the right hiring partner

There are several recruitment methods to choose from, online job boards, staffing agencies, hiring platforms, to name a few. However, each method offers distinct benefits and accuracy in hiring, which can decide the quality of the talent you onboard. For instance, staffing agencies are good for sourcing talents from certain regions, but hiring platforms cover the entire country and facilitate deep vetting for a better hiring experience. Assess your requirements and choose the right hiring partner wisely.

Use digital vetting tools

Tools like Versant, HireMee, iMocha, etc. are helping global employers evaluate their candidates for a particular role in a short time. These tools assess both technical proficiency and cultural adaptability of the talent, so you can make an informed hiring decision.

The Final Thoughts

So should you also hire remote talents from India? Absolutely, the country offers the best alternatives to other local talents and its future-ready talents ensure you stay ahead in the industry. Use the above checklist while offshore hiring from India and for more help, consider taking help of a hiring platform that provides end-to-end solutions.

How to establish cross cultural effectiveness before onboarding Indian remote talents

Bridging cross-cultural differences is extremely important for the smooth functioning of a remote team. When global employers hire talents from a region that has a distinct work culture, it becomes a difficult situation as both parties cannot fully understand each other. This is the challenge many US, UK, and AUS recruiters feel when they hire remote talents from India.

In this blog, we discuss the major differences between Indian and Western cultures and suggest ways to overcome them.

Difference Between Indian And Western Culture 

Here are the major distinctions between Indian and Western work cultures:

High-context and low-context communication

Indian cultures have an extremely high context style of communication, which is marked by body language and non-verbal cues. There are certain phrases used in this style of communication that a novice will not be able to understand. On the other hand, low-context communication means saying what one thinks directly to the other person, albeit in a respectful manner.

Collectivism and Individualism

Collectivist work environments focus on group-based achievements, like business goals, or departmental deadlines, etc. Likewise, the employees in such cultures put more emphasis on celebrating their team’s success. Individualist environments are complete opposites, as they prioritize the success of individuals over the group’s.

Polychronic and Monochronic

A polychronic environment is where talents are juggling multiple tasks at a time and have a flexible attitude towards deadlines. These teams sometimes fail to meet deadlines, but they ensure multiple projects are progressing parallelly. Monochronic environments, on the other hand, promote a single-minded approach, where professionals pay attention to one task at a time and meet the deadlines diligently.

It must be noted that neither of these cultures and workstyles are wrong, they are unique and reflective of the values of a certain workspace.

How To Build Rapport and Share Feedback With Your Indian Remote Talent Working in a Global Setup

Set clear expectations

It is best to provide clear guidelines and goals that you expect from your Indian remote talent. This will help in avoiding any misconceptions in the future and the talent will know the standards they need to maintain. Another advantage is that goal setting will help in clearly understanding the talent’s impact which can be used further during their appraisal call.

Schedule meetings at regular intervals

Staying in touch with your remote talent from India will help you in building a good rapport. Catch up with them at regular intervals or give an impromptu call once in a while to check up on their progress, ask if they are facing any work-related issues, and if they need any assistance. As the communication grows stronger over time, both parties will develop a long-lasting bond.

Use the Hamburger method for giving feedback

Sharing feedback with a remote talent possessing a contrasting communication style can be difficult. In addition to understanding their communication style, you can rely on the Hamburger method to give feedback. This method consists of a positive comment, followed by constructive feedback, and then again a positive comment.

Final Thoughts

The above tips will help you create a stronger working relationship with your Indian remote talent so you can keep leveraging the country’s deep talent pool. For a better understanding during the hiring process, you can also use vetting tools like HireMee to see if the talent aligns with your business’ work culture.

Key Hiring Trends to Watch Out in 2024 While Hiring

The last couple of years were very difficult for global employers. The uncertain economic conditions and growing operational costs compelled companies to cut off their workforce. It became increasingly difficult to find talents who were qualified for a job and fit the hiring budget. However, 2024 is going to be different.

Flexible hiring strategies and better candidate evaluation – two reliable methods of global employers, will continue to be utilized. There are a few more hiring trends to note, but first let us discuss the challenges recruiters are facing while hiring remotely.

Key Hiring Challenges Faced By Recruiters While Hiring From Offshore Locations

Tech talent shortage: As per Korn Ferry, the global tech talent shortage will rise to 85.2 million by 2030 due to lack of qualified professionals for filling up vacancies. This shortage will lead to a potential loss of $8.5 trillion. Even Latin America, East EU, and East Asia are expected to deal with a lack of skilled candidates in the coming years.

Expensive local talents: Local talents in US, UK, AUS, SA are 14% more expensive than remote talents from offshore regions like India and LatAm. This rise in salary expectation is due to recessions in US and EU that triggered wide-scale inflation and higher cost of living. Small and medium-sized businesses that operate on limited resources have to look beyond their local talents for building a resilient workforce.

Long hiring cycles: A survey found that it takes an average of 41 days to fill a vacancy, which is extremely long for fast-paced organizations striving to meet deadlines. Whether the employers are looking locally or remotely, the current hiring processes take too long to identify and onboard the right talents.

Top Hiring Trends in 2024

Global recruiters should prepare for the following hiring trends which will shape the hiring landscape in 2024:

Growth of remote hiring: More than 16,000 companies globally are expected to hire remote talents for their expansion plans. Remote talents are more cost-effective and easier to retain than local talents, which makes them the perfect long-term solution for agile businesses.

Skill and culture-based evaluation of talents: Global recruiters will prioritize a candidate’s technical proficiency and cultural alignment over their academics. 62% of businesses are using some form of skill-based assessment like Versant and Codility, and with the help of tools like HireMee, they can also identify culture-fit talents. Such an approach will help them reduce attrition rates and set up a cohesive distributed team.

Increased reliance on India’s talent pool: By 2030, India will be the only country with a tech talent surplus. Even today, the country is the most preferred remote hiring destination for global recruiters from US, UK, and AUS. In 2024, companies will continue to hire tech and digital talents for their requirements from India, due to the nation’s cost-effectiveness and large pool of global-ready talents.

Utilizing hiring platforms for offshore hiring: Tech-based hiring platforms help companies identify their right fit and onboard them within a short hiring cycle. 48% of businesses are planning to use these platforms for their offshore hiring needs, for reducing their hassle in remote hiring and ensuring effective talent acquisition.

Final Thoughts

The hiring trends mentioned above highlight the importance of adopting a flexible approach towards hiring to save costs and onboard the topmost talents. This is what most you should aim for so even you can compete with enterprise-level organizations who have better resources. You can also use these hiring trends of 2024 to craft a good hiring strategy that aligns with your business needs.

Challenges Faced by Global Digital Marketing Agencies When Hiring Offshore Remote Talents

Global digital agencies and tech-based companies rely heavily on offshoring their talent needs. This is because they are unable to find qualified profiles in their local geographies, and those available are very expensive.

Amidst a competitive talent market, 62.5% of tech and digital agencies from the US, UK, AUS, NZ, and EU outsourced to India between 2018 and 2022. However, these recruiters are still dealing with significant hiring challenges.

In this blog, we will deep dive into these recruitment challenges and solutions that tech startups and digital agencies can rely on.

Key Challenges Recruiters Face While Hiring From India

Recruiters from small to medium businesses looking to hire Indian remote talents usually face the following hiring challenges:

Finding the right talent

This is one of the most significant challenges faced by recruiters in India when they start looking for remote talents. Identifying the ideal fit for a job role from a massive talent pool is a Herculean task. Furthermore, the competitiveness in the Indian job market means employers have to make quick hiring decisions to secure the best talents.

Ensuring a faster hiring cycle

Traditional hiring methods for finding the best talents in India will push back your hiring cycle by weeks. Managing the entire hiring responsibilities can take a toll on your internal team, reflecting on their decision-making and lengthening the hiring process. Such a move is very detrimental, as you may lose out on deadlines and projects.

Choosing the right hiring method

There are several hiring methods to choose from - job boards, recruitment agencies, professional networks, hiring platforms, etc. All these options have their distinct advantages, and startups and digital agencies need to choose wisely between them. Selecting a hiring partner who does not align with your requirements can lead to higher chances of bad hire and attrition.

How to Overcome These Hiring Challenges?

While the above hiring challenges may feel overwhelming, there are a few things recruiters can do to overcome them:

Prepare for the Indian job market

Before you decide to start hiring from India, take a step back to prepare for the challenges. Draft a detailed and organized job description that sets your listing apart from the bunch. Research the right time to start hiring in India for the particular role and how much to offer them. This step will eliminate several challenges faced during recruitment in India.

Use digital vetting tools

Reduce the manual vetting efforts and use popular tools like Versant, Codility, and HireMee for evaluating the prospects. These tools will assess various aspects of the candidate and help you make informed decisions quickly. You will also be able to shorten the hiring cycle while increasing the accuracy of the process.

Find a reliable hiring partner

The preparation, the hiring process, the compliance measures, and a range of other aspects of hiring in India can overwhelm fast-paced agencies. For a hassle-free hiring experience, it is better to connect with a reliable hiring partner, like Uplers, who can provide end-to-end support from sourcing talents to smooth onboarding.
