When you hear of IT giants like these and even your own competitors tapping into the offshore talent pool, it isn’t uncommon to be curious about what offshoring is all about.

Why do you need an offshore partner?
Two reasons. One, because it’s a lot of work. Imagine sitting in your office in London, trying to set up an office space in India, recruit the best engineers, and handle all the administrative duties, apart from your daily tasks. Does that sound like a challenge? Well, it is.

The other reason is that extending a company into another country, with a totally different social and work culture, takes expertise. It requires the skill set of a team that understands the talent pool of that country and your specific requirements to tailor a recruitment process that can work for your business.
