And how building a global remote team strengthens your business.

It’s no surprise that many founders and scaling remote teams hire abroad, and Latin America is a hot spot for growing remote first teams. 

💥 Here’s 5 reasons why founders love hiring in Latin America (LATAM)👇

  1. Large talent pool: Latin America has a large and diverse talent pool of skilled professionals. With a population of over 650 million people, the region produces many talented individuals with strong technical and creative skills.

  2. Cost-effective: Hiring in Latin America can be a cost-effective option for companies looking to expand their workforce. Salaries and cost of living in many Latin American countries are lower compared to other regions, making it an attractive option for businesses looking to save on costs.

  3. Cultural similarities: Many Latin American countries share cultural similarities with North America, including similar work ethics and business practices. This can make it easier for companies to establish effective communication and build relationships with their Latin American teams.

  4. Time zone convenience: Latin America is located within the same or similar time zones as North America, which can make communication and collaboration much easier than working with teams in other regions.

  5. Language skills: Many Latin Americans are fluent in English, which can make communication and collaboration with North American teams much smoother. Additionally, hiring locally can provide access to individuals who speak other languages commonly used in the region, such as Spanish or Portuguese.
