High-tech entrepreneurs are experiencing an unprecedented boom in various ways. Israel is attracting record fundraising for various startups. Even the COVID-19 period did not stop the successes, with larger amounts raised this year compared to last year. But behind the headlines, it turns out that the field is facing quite a few challenges. Entrepreneurs, startups, and companies are no longer ruling out OUTSTAFFING in another country. These are the reasons to check if it might suit you as well.
1. When struggling to recruit programmers in the country
A few years ago, a “Calcalist” reporter reported on the development of a shortage of programmers in the country. Estimates at the time spoke of a shortage of thousands of programming personnel, and since then, the gap has not closed. If you, as entrepreneurs or managers, understand what this is about, outsourcing can provide a flexible and quick solution to the issue. Recruiting programmers abroad does not have to come at the expense of quality Israeli personnel. It is possible to combine local and quality workforce with talented programmers who are abroad but become employed.
2. When development costs exceed the budget
Development can drain the budget much faster than forecasts estimated. When this happens, a tech company can become a disappointment and a failure, even when the product is promising and sales might be excellent. When it is discovered that development costs exceed the budget or are very burdensome, one can consider, for example, outsourcing in Ukraine. In this way, development costs are reduced without giving up the dream. Tailor-made solutions can be utilized, including receiving technological consultation for individual entrepreneurs or small companies that cannot afford high development costs.
3. When the best prefer giant companies
Many tech professionals in the country enjoy luxurious conditions. High-quality personnel often prefer to integrate into giant companies. Yes, it turns out that even in high-tech, much of the interest is branding. But not everyone can be Google or Apple, or even close to it. If senior employees or developers have left you, looking towards companies abroad or a more well-known local employer, it’s time to think outside the box. High-tech outsourcing provides a solution for businesses facing brain drain or struggling to recruit employees as they did in the past.
4. To meet a demanding and challenging schedule
Sometimes timing is everything. Launch a new product on time – you beat the competition. Fail to meet deadlines, and you’ll struggle to attract investors or convince buyers to purchase your digital product, software, or app in the future. When you see that the schedule is tight and challenging and want to get more out of your work teams, you can hire additional manpower for a certain period. Outsourcing companies that specialize in outsourcing development personnel abroad can allocate a variety of roles for different periods. If you need to tie up some loose ends, speed up the project, and meet deadlines, this is a good way to succeed.
5. When expertise is required that is not available in the country
Another reason to consider recruitment through the OUTSTAFFING method is when special expertise is required. It’s not that there aren’t top-notch engineers and developers in the country, no one can deny that. However, in certain niches, there is definitely a difficulty in finding an experienced and knowledgeable professional who can meet the needs. For example, in the dynamic and challenging field of game development. The best recent Israeli example is Playtika, a company that is breaking records worldwide. Only part of the company’s employees are employed in Israel. The rest, as part of a strategic decision, are recruited from manpower abroad. So if technical expertise or knowledge in a niche that is less common in the country is required, there is no reason not to fill the gap with outsourcing from the other side of the world.
