International Recruitment Support for Staffing Agencies
WINBI helps your agency source and screen international candidates for your clients’ long-term workforce needs. We coordinate candidate information, interviews, and recruitment follow-up with your team, with communication and responsibilities agreed upon from the start.
When Client Hiring Needs Go Beyond Your Current Talent Pipeline
Some clients regularly need people for the same roles and locations. Your team fills positions, but new requests follow as employees leave or operations expand. For these accounts, it helps to understand how much hiring demand is likely to continue and whether additional recruitment channels could support it.
The Same Roles Return to Your Recruiting Desk
A placement closes one opening, but similar requests continue to come in. Looking at those requests across a client account can help distinguish occasional vacancies from positions the business consistently needs to keep filled.
Repeated Searches Compete for Your Team’s Time
Sourcing, screening, and arranging interviews for the same roles takes time. When those searches remain active, your recruiters have less capacity to respond to other client requests or prepare for upcoming hiring needs.
Some Hiring Needs Are Visible Well in Advance
A client may expect to need people for an additional shift, another location, or ongoing operations. Those conversations give your agency an opportunity to consider international recruitment alongside its existing hiring channels for permanent, full-time roles.
How WINBI Supports Your Recruitment Efforts
Adding an international recruitment channel involves more than finding candidates. There are backgrounds to review, interviews to arrange, and questions to follow up on. WINBI works with your agency on these recruitment tasks, giving your team the information and coordination needed to evaluate candidates and communicate with clients.
Add Another Channel for Your Clients’ Hiring Needs
WINBI sources potential international candidates for the positions your agency is helping clients fill. Each search is based on the agreed job requirements, including duties, experience, skills, and work location.
Know Who You’re Putting Forward
We review candidates’ backgrounds, relevant experience, and interest in the role before sharing their information with your team. Your recruiters can then assess potential matches and decide which candidates to recommend for interviews.
Keep Interviews Focused on the Job
We help arrange interviews through the contacts agreed with your agency. We also share confirmed job details with candidates, including duties, pay, schedule, and location, so they have the information needed to discuss the position.
Have the Details You Need to Update Your Client
Candidate feedback, unanswered questions, and missing information can delay recruitment. We follow up on these items and keep your team informed about what has been addressed, what remains outstanding, and what needs attention next
Offer Clients an Additional Workforce Option Through EB-3
Some clients have recurring staffing needs that regular recruiting efforts have not fully addressed. They may be open to international recruitment for permanent, full-time positions, while your agency needs support coordinating the recruitment and immigration steps involved.
Working with WINBI gives your team a way to explore that option without building a separate international recruitment operation. We coordinate recruitment activities and work alongside immigration legal counsel, while your agency continues serving its clients.
Bring Another Option to the Conversation
When clients have long-term hiring needs, your agency can introduce international recruitment through EB-3 as an option worth evaluating. This allows your team to discuss workforce needs that may extend beyond the reach of its existing recruiting channels.
Connect Recruitment With the Immigration Process
WINBI coordinates international recruitment activities, candidate information, and communication among the parties involved. Immigration legal counsel evaluates sponsorship eligibility, advises on legal requirements, and handles the legal filings. Your agency receives progress updates, including what information is needed and what your team or the employer needs to do next.
Agree on How the Teams Work Together
Each engagement begins with an understanding of responsibilities, points of contact, and how information will be shared. WINBI coordinates with your agency according to those arrangements, including when direct communication with an employer is appropriate. Employers make the hiring decisions and may interview candidates before selecting whom to hire.
Where EB-3 May Fit in Your Clients’ Hiring Plans
Not every hiring need is suited to international recruitment. But when clients repeatedly struggle to fill positions they need year-round, EB-3 may be worth discussing as part of a longer-term workforce plan.
Look Beyond the Next Open Position
Consider clients who regularly recruit for the same roles or have staffing gaps that continue from one hiring cycle to the next. If those positions represent a genuine need for permanent, full-time employees, they may be worth reviewing for an EB-3 recruitment option.
Start With a Clearly Defined Position
A useful initial discussion begins with the job itself: duties, required skills or experience, work location, pay, and the number of workers needed. These details provide a starting point for reviewing the recruitment needs, while immigration counsel assesses the proposed employment arrangement, the sponsoring employer, and the applicable requirements.
Account for the Steps Before Employment Begins
An EB-3 hiring plan needs to account for recruitment, immigration processing, and visa availability. Because these steps can take time and timelines may change, clients should consider how international recruitment fits alongside their current hiring efforts. An anticipated start date should be treated as a planning estimate, rather than a confirmed arrival date.
If your agency has clients with these types of hiring needs, a conversation with WINBI can help determine whether EB-3 is worth exploring and what information would be needed to take the next step.
Questions About Partnering With WINBI
Start by telling us about the roles your clients need to fill, the work locations, the estimated number of workers, and their hiring priorities. WINBI can review the initial information with your team and discuss whether EB-3 international recruitment is an option worth exploring.
No prior EB-3 experience is needed to begin working with WINBI. We coordinate international recruitment activities, while immigration legal counsel advises on eligibility, sponsorship requirements, and legal procedures. Your team helps clarify client needs, provide recruitment information, and coordinate communication with the employer.
We discuss responsibilities, points of contact, and communication arrangements with your agency before moving forward. Depending on the agreed approach, WINBI may coordinate directly with your team or participate in discussions with the employer. Employers make their own hiring decisions and may interview candidates before selecting whom to hire.
The sponsoring employer depends on the proposed employment arrangement. It may be the client company or an eligible staffing company that will employ the workers. Immigration legal counsel evaluates the proposed arrangement, the employer’s eligibility, and the applicable sponsorship requirements before a case proceeds.
EB-3 involves multiple stages, including recruitment requirements, immigration processing, and visa availability. Because timelines can change, agencies should discuss EB-3 with clients as part of longer-term workforce planning rather than rely on a specific arrival or start date. WINBI keeps your agency informed of progress and any information or actions needed from your team or the employer.
Hiring needs can change during a long-term recruitment process. If a client needs fewer workers, changes job requirements, or adjusts its hiring plans, your agency should inform WINBI as early as possible. WINBI reviews the recruitment implications with your agency. Immigration counsel assesses any impact on the immigration case and advises on the next steps.
