Prominence Global Launches Skilled Talent Shortage Solution

Prominence Global's Remote Team Connect solves the talent shortage with fast, cost-effective, AI-led offshore hiring across key global regions.
'It wasn't easy letting go of a team structure that had worked well for years. It had worked for businesses before, so we had to figure out a completely new approach if the business was to survive.'— Adam Houlahan - Founder and CEO
VARSITY LAKES, QUEENSLAND, AUSTRALIA, April 14, 2025 / EINPresswire.com / -- Small-to-medium-sized businesses in the Western world are still in the grip of a worldwide talent shortage. Finding the right people is crucial to success in an increasingly volatile and competitive landscape. Not only that, but salary demands are escalating rapidly putting relentless pressure on business budgets.
LinkedIn marketing agency Prominence Global has launched Remote Team Connect, a new approach to offshore talent acquisition designed to solve both of these challenges.
With their philosophy of 'We eat our own cooking' Prominence Global first tested this new concept within their own business and have built a robust, flexible team spread across the Philippines, South Africa, India, Eastern Europe and three separate time zones in Australia.
Houlahan describes Remote Team Connect as a marketing-led, AI-enabled offshore talent acquisition program that aims to deliver cohorts of qualified remote talent in a fraction of the time and cost of traditional recruitment.
He points out that while that sounds easy in principle, it can be a tricky landscape to navigate and there are some key questions that must be addressed before starting any talent search.
As most of Prominence Global's clients and existing team have English as their first language, it was imperative to target regions where most candidates would have very good English skills and time zones that would make communications manageable between team members as well as between team members and our clients. It was also a prerequisite to be sure the targeted regions had pay rate expectations that were affordable for our business yet still provided good earnings for the team members joining us.
The regions that aligned best with all those criteria include The Philippines, South Africa, India, and parts of Eastern Europe, as well as Thailand and Vietnam.
Given the massive impact this has had on their ability to remain in business, flexible and cost-effective during the pandemic and the aftermath, the company's clients saw the positive outcome and started requesting assistance to build teams for them in the same way the Prominence team was now structured.
Remote Team Connect is Prominence Globals' response. It leverages their hard-earned knowledge of those specific labour markets and advanced experience with the LinkedIn algorithm and a purpose-built, AI-enabled process to deliver a list of at least 20 qualified candidates within 14 days.
While that may still sound like recruitment - and it is - but their view is that the approach they take makes it more of a marketing play. The process is designed to position their clients in global talent markets as a trusted employer of choice for offshore talent.

China Reacts to Trump Review of Nuclear Submarine Deal

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. China reiterated its opposition to the AUKUS nuclear submarine deal after the Trump Administration said it is reviewing the defense agreement to ensure it fits with its "America First" agenda. AUKUS is a partnership between the U.S., U.K., and Australia centered on developing nuclear-powered attack submarines that will expand patrols of the Pacific by Western allies. The deal, agreed in 2021, is worth $240 billion and is now under scrutiny by the Pentagon, led by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. "China has made clear more than once its position on the so-called trilateral security partnership between the U.S., U.K., and Australia, designed to advance cooperation on nuclear submarines and other cutting-edge military technologies," Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Lin Jian said at a briefing on Thursday. "We oppose manufacturing bloc confrontations and anything that amplifies the risk of nuclear proliferation and exacerbates the arms race." This is a breaking news story. Updates to follow.

Howard Schultz says he is a big fan of Brian Niccol's 'brilliant' Starbucks revival strategy

Howard Schultz, the former chair and CEO of Starbucks, enthusiastically lauded Brian Niccol's turnaround plan for the coffee chain at a company event on Wednesday. Schultz was speaking at "Starbucks Leadership Experience 2025," an event which saw over 14,000 North American store managers gather in Las Vegas, when he praised Niccol's work. The former and current CEOs of Starbucks discussed the company's future during a fireside chat on Wednesday. "I want to say, when I heard you speak for the first time about 'Back to Starbucks,' I did a cartwheel in my living room," Schultz told Niccol. "First of all, it was so brilliant. It's short. It's to the point, and it's exactly the tip of the spear of who we should be, and who we are. And we are, above all else, a coffee company," Schultz added. Niccol was the CEO of the Mexican grill chain Chipotle before he became the CEO of Starbucks in September. Niccol's predecessor, Laxman Narasimhan, stepped down after 17 months. During Narasimhan's tenure as CEO, the company struggled with declining sales in the US and China. Schultz publicly criticized Starbucks' management in a LinkedIn post he wrote in May 2024. Schultz said the coffee chain's senior leaders and board members "need to spend more time with those who wear the green apron" and overhaul its retail strategy. "The stores require a maniacal focus on the customer experience, through the eyes of a merchant. The answer does not lie in data, but in the stores," Schultz wrote on LinkedIn. That idea of focusing on stores was echoed in Niccol's " Back to Starbucks" plan, which he unveiled shortly after taking over as CEO. "Today, I'm making a commitment: We're getting back to Starbucks. We're refocusing on what has always set Starbucks apart — a welcoming coffeehouse where people gather, and where we serve the finest coffee, handcrafted by our skilled baristas," Niccol wrote in an open letter in September. Starbucks announced its second-quarter earnings in April. The company reported $8.8 billion in net revenue, slightly lower than the $8.83 billion estimate compiled by Bloomberg. "Our financial results don't yet reflect our progress, but we have real momentum with our 'Back to Starbucks' plan," Niccol said in April. Starbucks' stock is up by over 4.5% year to date.
