Client success stories

At Tradewind, we were looking to hire a variety of roles both technical and customer facing. We have experience recruiting offshore talent in a variety of other countries but never Macedonia. We were attracted to Macedonia based on its reputation for strong educational institutions attractive wages, a culture that includes a strong work ethic, and very strong English language skills and familiarity with American culture.

We chose to work with Connect for a variety of reasons. The first is that we were looking for a boutique partner who could help us navigate the challenges that always arise when building teams in a new country. Both owners of Connect are fluent English speakers both having lived in English speaking countries for many years. Not only does that make communications very easy, it also means we do not need to explain our business and how American consumers interact with our type of company. Connect has been very successful in finding strong talent at very competitive rates. It requires very little of my time to add new team members, usually only requiring about a ten minute conversation. From there I can expect to start seeing CVs in less than two weeks. Connect management are willing to communicate with me on my terms and time zone is never an issue. I would not hesitate to recommend Connect to any organization that is looking for an easy to way to tap into the enormous talent available in Macedonia.

The numbers made no sense anymore. We had to consider outsourcing. We haven’t looked back since. Connect has consistently been able to source and place highly skilled English speaking construction support staff. There are never any issues with the work quality and connectivity with my remote team.

We were overwhelmed by routine tasks and busywork. Opportunities were passing us by. Hiring and growing our team with Connect let us seize those opportunities and improve our operations while reducing overheads.

Head of Product (UK)

Connect handles our digital marketing and back office talent sourcing. We’re very happy with the recruitment and ongoing support. We should of done this years ago. We’ve been able to fill twice the amount of roles while we scale, with no drop in performance. Thanks guys!

Sophie
UK Head of Digital Marketing

We’ve been outsourcing accounting and bookkeeping for years, given the nature of work that can be executed remotely. Connect allowed us to tap into a remote team closer to home, who are skilled and familiar with our practices, regulations, and business needs. It’s reduced our labor costs for this department by nearly 60%.

Paul F.
Finance Director (USA)

Our Development team was overwhelmed by the development work in the pipeline and struggling to get product and fixes out the door. We had capable people working for us locally, but it was too difficult to find and attract new staff. The market is too competitive and expensive in Germany.

Connect reached out to us and after carefully considering our options in the region, we hired several Senior Developers. Marijana and Sandra are gifted and technical specialists. Connect made outsourcing easy and streamlined so there was no affect to our business continuity. They have great attention to detail and understand our pain points. Thank you!

Head of Software Development (Germany)

My outsourced team are a pleasure to work with. They are just as good as what I can source locally in the US. Hiring locally makes it difficult to scale. We’ve been able hire double the amount of digital marketing and support staff because of this decision. Skopje is easy to get too – Goce and Filip always make us feel welcome and productive. Can’t wait on my next trip!

Samantha W

Connect were able to supply us with 4 customer support agents in under 2 weeks. Watching them deliver talent who fit our needs, spoke perfect English and understood our SOPs and scripts very quickly was impressive. We’ve been able to achieve a huge increase in our customer satisfaction surveys and 35% in customer response time. Highly recommend Connect for any customer facing support roles to US based businesses.
