Global employers are hiring more South Africans — study
International companies are increasingly turning to SA for a skilled workforce to meet their operational needs.
This is according to Cape Town-based offshore recruitment specialist The Legends Agency, which connects global businesses with South African talent.
The agency said SA's high unemployment rate, 'world-class' universities and favourable time zone are some of the factors making global employers hire more South Africans.
'In only one year, the company has grown from a R5m-a-year operation into SA's largest independent employer of record firm, generating more thanR120m annually and enabling more than 150 global companies to successfully hire South African talent,' the agency said.
'The business is also a leading recruitment firm in the SA market, where job seekers can find the best roles working for both local and global firms.'
The agency said it is working towards reducing unemployment in SA.
