Frequently Asked Questions
How does LatamCent vet candidates for specialized roles?
LatamCent vets candidates through a multi-step process. Candidates are interviewed by role-specific talent partners, assessed with technical or role-play exercises, checked for responsiveness, and verified with references and international background checks. This process drives a 93% first-placement success rate and includes a 60-day replacement guarantee.
Can LatamCent support hiring across multiple departments?
LatamCent supports hiring in engineering, finance, sales, and marketing. The company fills roles such as AI and machine learning engineers, backend and blockchain developers, CFOs, FP&A specialists, SDRs, account executives, and digital marketing managers. Clients have also hired for specialized positions like computer vision engineers, Ethereum developers, controllers, and PPC specialists.
What if our company doesn’t have a presence in Latam yet?
LatamCent enables companies without a local entity to hire in the region. Acting as a contractor on record, the company manages contracts, payroll, legal, and compliance, reducing establishment risk and ensuring compliant hiring across countries. Establishment risk can occur once a team surpasses about 50 hires in a single country, and LatamCent helps clients stay compliant without needing to open local offices.
How fast does LatamCent deliver candidates?
LatamCent prioritizes speed by testing candidate responsiveness and moving quickly through hiring steps. Once a client is ready to make an offer, agreements are sent within 24 hours. Acting fast is critical, since candidates often receive multiple offers, and Talent-as-a-Service allows companies to scale quickly when several hires are needed at once.
How is LatamCent different from a traditional recruiter?
LatamCent provides flexible models: direct hire, contingency, and Talent-as-a-Service. Unlike traditional recruiters, the company embeds as an extension of client teams, manages compliance and payroll when needed, and supports hires with a replacement guarantee and high success rates.
Does LatamCent handle contracts, payroll, and compliance?
LatamCent manages contracts, payroll, legal, and compliance for most clients. Acting as a contractor on record, the company ensures smooth and compliant international hiring while protecting clients from legal and tax risks. Nearly all clients, about 99%, choose this option, with operations supported by LatamCent’s U.S. entity in Florida and offices across Miami and Medellin.
