Whom can you recruit?

In a world of movement and interconnection, finding the right person can be easy.

Who can you recruit?

The answer is anyone and everyone! Find the right person for you and bring them on board. No work permits are needed for individuals from EU/EEA countries, and getting a permit for those outside the EU is straightforward if you follow the procedure. Of course, the recruiting process requires good preparation and planning, but with the right approach, you can recruit talent from anywhere.


Global talent is closer than you think!

Potential new employees might be right under your nose. Look at students already in Sweden/UmeƄ who could be eager to dive into Swedish working life through thesis projects or internships.

Many global talents are already here in UmeƄ. Can you get with touch with them using your current strategy?

Don't forget about the partners of global talents already here. Often, they come with the qualifications, skills, and drive to jump into professional life and make a difference.

Refugees who have recently arrived in Sweden are another incredible resource. Many are highly-trained specialists eager to integrate and contribute to their new community. With proper introduction to language courses and your workplace culture, these untapped talents can really shine.


The advantages of recruiting a plus one

'Plus ones' are what we've chosen to call those who often move with another talent that has been recruited to a job here. It is especially common here in UmeƄ with UmeƄ University attracting highly educated specialists within an age group that already have a partner. These plus ones often also come with a higher education but sometimes struggle with getting their feet down in UmeƄ. Here are some advantages with recruiting them:

  • They can start immediately, often without needing a new process or official application.

  • Many practical details, like accommodation, are likely already sorted.

  • They're highly motivated to join a social context and achieve professional fulfillment.


Get excited about the diverse and talented candidates waiting to join your team!
