CEO, Propensity
The all-in cost is a fraction of an equivalent US hire.
Clients regularly save up to 70% compared to domestic hiring, without compromising quality.
"Strong candidates at a much lower entry point than hiring in the US."
"I found Hire with Near to be incredibly valuable because they provide very skilled and highly reliable candidates who are some of the best I've worked with. I appreciate their cost-effectiveness, offering highly qualified candidates at a much lower entry point than hiring equivalent candidates in the US. Their ability to present high-quality candidates and place them in a role within weeks, sometimes days, is impressive."
"We needed great people under budget constraints, and they delivered."
"We are a seed-stage company growing our teams with a limited budget. I had worked with amazing folks in LatAm in past roles and wanted to hire in the region to grow our company with great people under budget constraints. I've hired a finance manager and data analyst with Near. The team is professional and continue to iterate on your requirements as you review candidates. It was a great experience and I appreciate the speed and quality of the process."
"All-in cost was meaningfully below an equivalent onshore hire."
"Communication was clear, timelines were predictable, and the overall cost profile was significantly more efficient than onshore hiring. Even with Near's fee, the all-in cost was meaningfully below an equivalent onshore hire, improving cost efficiency without sacrificing capability."
Candidates are pre-screened, pre-vetted, and consistently exceed expectations.
The most common thing clients tell us after their first round of interviews is that they didn't expect the candidates to be this good.
"We often have a hard time deciding between three strong candidates."
"We can confidently rely on Near to present us with qualified candidates, reducing the risk and uncertainty associated with traditional hiring methods. This assurance of quality means our hiring managers spend less time sifting through unsuitable applications and more time engaging with genuinely promising candidates. Knowing that we can consistently rely on Near to provide us with top-tier candidates eliminates much of the guesswork and risk in hiring."
“The pre-vetting process was truly rigorous.”
“What I found most impressive about Hire with Near was how they combined speed with quality without sacrificing either. Many recruiting services can move fast but send you mediocre candidates, or they deliver great talent but take months to do it—Near managed to do both exceptionally well.
The pre-vetting process was truly rigorous; every candidate we interviewed was polished, experienced, and ready to contribute from day one, which told me they weren’t just matching keywords on resumes but genuinely evaluating fit and capability.”
"The talent from Near is often better than US talent."
"We hire both in the US and with Near in LATAM, and we've found that the talent from Near is often better than US talent through LinkedIn Recruiter. For recruiting in LATAM, we tried two other options, and the candidates Near finds are so good that we often have a hard time deciding between 2-3 people. With Near, everyone we interview is at least solid, so there is no wasted time in bad interviews. The A+ talent we interview and hire is invaluable to our team."
First candidates in days. Hires made in weeks, not months.
Most clients go from the first call to a signed offer in two to four weeks.
"Filled a newly created role in two weeks and booked 8 meetings in the first two weeks."
"The speed and efficiency are unparalleled. Near's team not only helped define the role but also delivered vetted candidates who were a perfect fit for our needs. Their proactive communication and expertise in sales hiring ensured we found the right person quickly. The ability to start seeing ROI almost immediately made this process invaluable. Near helped us fill a newly created sales assistant / appointment setter role and find two qualified candidates quickly, something that would have taken weeks or months using traditional methods. We've already seen direct results, like booking 8 meetings in the first two weeks."
"Sourced and hired a great candidate in a week."
"I liked how easy they were to work with and how quickly they helped me hire someone in LATAM. They were responsive and communicated well on what their offer was. They helped me source and hire a great candidate in just a week, and they sourced three good candidates for me who had prior sales experience. This new hire is key for our revenue growth."
"Near saves me 80% of my hiring time."
"Hire with Near speeds up hiring by letting me interview only top candidates, saving 80% of my time. This frees me to focus more on operations and sales, directly benefiting the business. I like that Hire with Near delivers candidates quickly and that I get to tailor a work sample. I appreciate having the ability to meet with my Near representative as often as I like to refine the hiring process."
Latin American professionals work US hours. No next-day replies, no scheduling around time zones.
Latin America's biggest practical advantage over South and Southeast Asia is overlap with US business hours. Our clients notice it immediately.
"We needed people working in hours compatible with our operational leaders."
"The people were responsive, friendly, easy to work with, intuitive, and did quick, impactful work. The candidates they sent were on target and well vetted, and the process was super organized. We were looking to tap the broader LatAm talent market with some key roles that would align with the markets we play in, and have people who are working in hours compatible with our operational leaders."
"Offshore hiring with no time zone compromise. It felt the same as hiring in the US."
"We can hire in our relative time zones, and have video interviews with candidates so it is no different to us than hiring in the US. The recruiters help find quality candidates that so far has been working well. With Near, we can hire in US time zones and have video interviews with candidates, so it is no different to us than hiring in the US. We are excited to see how expanding with Near can help us continue to grow."
"Working with LatAm proves that communication and time zone problems don't have to exist."
"Working with the team proves to you that working with LatAm will be seamless for your organization. Communication, business savvy, experience, etc., are all on point. I needed an offshore staffing solution without as many time zone and cultural barriers to work in the US."
The Hire With Near team is as much a reason clients come back as the talent is.
Our recruiters take time to understand your role, your team, and what hasn't worked before. Clients consistently say that prep shows up in the quality of the shortlist.
"They adapt quickly and ensure the process is fast and smooth."
"Near's team is proactive, clear, and responsive. They adapt quickly to shifting business needs or hiring criteria and ensure that the hiring process is fast and smooth. One of the things we appreciate most about Near is their flexibility. They're always willing to pivot quickly when priorities shift, showing true partnership and dedication to our success. Their reliability and professionalism have made them a trusted extension of our team."
"Constant follow-ups, commitment to quality, and they genuinely take our feedback."
"I really appreciate the customer experience with Hire with Near. They're constantly following up with us and ensuring we feel good about every candidate. I also like how they take our feedback into account. Their communication and commitment to quality stand out for me. They support us by handling less senior roles, which allows us to focus our time on more critical roles."
"Felt like a genuine extension of our internal hiring process rather than a transactional vendor relationship."
“The entire process from initial conversation to hire was remarkably fast: just two weeks to have multiple strong options. The team's communication was outstanding throughout, with responsive support that felt like a genuine extension of our internal hiring process rather than a transactional vendor relationship."
Clients hire their first person through us, and then come back for the whole team.
Hire With Near works with companies at every stage. For companies on a growth curve, having a reliable source of pre-vetted, ready-to-interview talent is what makes fast scaling possible without sacrificing quality.
"We've hired over ten candidates and counting. They keep up with our constantly shifting needs."

They truly have been invaluable in supporting us in sourcing great people and keeping up with our constantly shifting needs. We have hired over ten candidates and counting with Near."
"I needed to build out a team of twelve sales reps, and Near answered the call."
"I needed to build out a team of twelve sales reps, and Near answered the call. They vet talent extremely well, and I have been very fortunate to get great candidates from them. Working with Julia has been amazing. She is super responsive and goes above and beyond to make sure our company is satisfied."
“Their team worked closely with internal stakeholders and hiring managers across departments.”
"Their team worked closely with internal stakeholders and hiring managers across a diverse set of departments—including Finance, Sales Strategy, Marketing, and Operations—to identify, source, and present high-quality candidates for both technical and non-technical roles.
Their support extended across the entire recruiting lifecycle, from intake calls to candidate sourcing, screening, coordination, and feedback collection.”
Never hired outside the US? These clients hadn't either.
If you have never hired outside the US before, the biggest barrier is usually uncertainty about the process. These reviews are from companies that came in unsure and ended up building part of their team with us.
"Our first foray into LatAm hiring, and they walked us through every step."
"This was our first foray into hiring in Latin America. Hire with Near was very informative and walked us through the process well. They showed some great candidates, and we were quickly able to hire."
"We had no idea how to vet good employees overseas. Now we do."
"I liked how streamlined and easy the process is. The quality of talent that was found was better than I even hoped for. [I wanted to] hire top-tier talent in Latin America at lower cost. I had no idea what the process would be or even how to vet good employees overseas."
"We couldn't have found, recruited, or hired in LatAm without them."
"As a small consulting firm, we don't have the connections, resources, or knowledge to find, recruit, and hire professional talent in LatAm and Near does. So far, the talent we have been able to hire has allowed us to deliver better service to our clients in ways that hiring in the US would not have allowed."
The Business Problems Hire With Near Solves for Clients
Most clients come to us with a specific problem: a role they can’t fill, a budget that can’t stretch to a US hire, or a team that can’t operate properly because of time zones.
G2 asks every reviewer a specific question: "What problems is Hire With Near solving, and how is that benefiting you?"
These are their answers.
"We needed qualified talent quickly, without months of overhead."
"Hire with Near solved a critical problem we were facing: finding qualified talent quickly without the months-long timeline and massive overhead of traditional US-based recruiting. The nearshore model gave us access to experienced Latin American professionals at a fraction of the cost, while eliminating the administrative burden of international hiring, payroll, compliance, and benefits management."
"We could not afford a US hire, but we could not lower the bar either."
"We were struggling to find a reliable, full-time accountant or vendor domestically who met our quality standards and budget. Near opened the door to a global talent pool and helped us quickly hire a highly capable accountant who integrated seamlessly with our team. We now have a fantastic full-time accountant on board at a fraction of the cost, and we can focus on growing the business."
"I needed offshore staffing with direct management, not a BPO model."
"We needed a partner to help us staff offshore seats while still allowing us to maintain direct day-to-day management of the team, something traditional BPO models don't allow. Near helped us source and screen candidates in international markets where we had limited experience. This allowed us to scale quickly and confidently while maintaining operational control and quality."
"We are new to global hiring and needed a partner, not just a vendor."
"We are new to the idea of global hiring, and Near was a fantastic partner in helping us navigate the unknowns beyond the day-to-day needs of recruiting. They were also highly reliable, followed through on their commitments, and provided us with great candidates."
"We needed bilingual reps for a growing Spanish-speaking customer base."
"Hire with Near helped scale our support team with bilingual reps, opened connections in Latin America, and provided quality candidates quickly. They opened up new opportunities for us in Latin America, helping to scale our support team with bilingual reps for our growing Spanish-speaking customer base."
"Offshore in the past had limitations. Near removed them."
"We often need accounting positions for our expanding accounting practice. Having a mix of on and offshore has helped with the growth, but offshore in the past has had limitations. With Near, we can hire in our relative time zones, and have video interviews with candidates so it is no different to us than hiring in the US."
