MAMIE KANFER STEWART
About this episode

Hiring talent from another country can seem like a daunting task. Navigating different time zones, cultures and other factors can feel overwhelming at first.


But here’s the truth: those initial challenges are small compared to the massive benefits of expanding your hiring options. 


To help you navigate this journey, today’s guest is here to share expert tips on how to effectively tap into the global talent pool and build a thriving team.


Meet Jonathan Romley–one of the world’s foremost experts on global talent management and the future of work. Recognized as a leading authority in navigating the complexities of international talent acquisition, Jonathan is the founder of Lundi, a global talent firm specializing in innovative strategies for attracting, retaining, and developing top talent across borders.


In this episode, Jonathan and I discuss why companies of all sizes should consider hiring internationally. He also shares key components for hiring remote talent and emphasizes that global hiring should be a strategic decision, not just a cost-cutting measure.


Plus, in the extended episode available to Podcast+ members, Jonathan reveals how to set yourself up for a successful hire.
