This is the third post in a series of 10 posts on why SaaS companies need to consider hiring tech talent from Latin America. Reason #3: Time Zone Compatibility. Latin American countries share time zones with North American regions, which can facilitate real-time collaboration and communication between distributed teams. For example, Brazil shares time zones with the East Coast of the United States, while countries like Mexico and Colombia have time zones aligned with Central Standard Time (CST). This alignment minimizes the challenges associated with scheduling meetings, coordinating projects, and resolving issues across geographically dispersed teams.

𝐖𝐞 𝐠𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐞𝐱𝐭𝐫𝐚 𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐄𝐫𝐢𝐜! Last year, we teamed up with Eric Goto for his bachelor thesis, and our collaboration has been absolutely great! 🙌 Now we’re very happy to reveal that Eric is on his way to becoming a permanent part of our team! Although we already have the employment contract in hand (check out the photo), the journey to obtain his residence permit still is a challenging and lengthy process. Nevertheless, we are determined to navigate this path together. This situation has made it clear that the talent acquisition process in our country needs to change🇩🇪🤔. It should be easier to employ talented individuals from different parts of the world. We believe in breaking down barriers to recruit international talent. If everything goes according to plan, starting April 1st, we will have a talented Fullstack-Developer from Brazil joining our ranks. 🇧🇷 Big thanks to our amazing SNP Group HR team, Brita and Rebecca, for their continuous support throughout this process. 🤜🤛 Have any of you faced similar challenges or have experiences to share in this area? Let's continue the conversation and work towards a more inclusive and global workforce. 🌎 #globalworkforce #talentacquisition #developer
