Why this matters
Hiring internationally changes more than the org chart
When a company brings on a colleague from another country, most of the visible work happens before arrival: contracts, logistics, travel. What often gets less attention is what happens inside the building on day one. Does the safety briefing exist in a language the new hire actually reads fluently? Is there someone assigned to answer the small, unofficial questions that never make it into a handbook?
Our work sits in that gap. We look at the physical workspace, the written materials, the people delivering onboarding, and the informal support structure around a new international employee, and we help companies get each of those pieces ready in advance rather than improvising them in the first week.
