Recruit abroad
Motivated and well-trained employees are crucial for the success of Austrian companies. Targeted recruitment and qualifying measures in Austria are not always successful. Nevertheless, in order to acquire the required know-how for the company, employers also look for well-trained talents abroad.
In this way, companies can recruit skilled workers with sought-after skills that are simply not available on the Austrian labour market at the present time.
