Remote recruiting report
How AI, remote work, and new laws are changing hiring markets
Where can you find the world’s top talent?
38% of business leaders report talent acquisition as their biggest hiring challenge. Our global talent hotspot locator helps you find the world’s best regions for the most in-demand roles.
Demand for skilled workers continues to outstrip supply across multiple sectors — tech, finance, business and online retail among them. At the same time, many qualified people can’t access these roles because of where they live. That contradiction is the central issue in today’s labour market, pushing firms to widen their search while using AI and other tools to remain efficient.
The world’s top talent is rarely found on your doorstep. International recruitment brings its own obstacles: in our recent survey of over 4,000 business and HR leaders responsible for hiring staff, 77% reported troubles navigating international labour laws in the past six months. Despite that, hiring managers are pressing ahead with global searches.

Global hiring trends: The state of borderless talent acquisition
Employer of Record (EOR) services are steadily overturning the idea that international hiring is impossible, making global talent far easier to access. And with 2025 upon us, companies can rarely afford to limit their searches to domestic markets. Rising local specialist scarcity, increasing employee costs, and the disruptive impact of AI have turned global talent acquisition from a luxury into a necessity.
To chart the current picture of international hiring, we surveyed more than 4,000 business and HR leaders (director level and above) with recruitment decision-making responsibilities across the UK, USA, Germany, France, Netherlands, Spain, Australia, Sweden, South Korea and Japan.
73%
73% of hiring leaders say they’ve lost employees to companies offering greater flexibility
With remote and hybrid working now the norm for many, flexible arrangements are a major draw for highly skilled candidates.
77%
77% of businesses have faced issues with international labour laws within the last six months
As companies widen their talent searches internationally, managing complex foreign labour regulations has become a significant obstacle, often slowing hiring and adding extra layers of compliance work.
38%
38% of hiring leaders report difficulties finding candidates with the right skills
As skill gaps widen across industries, businesses struggle to fill critical roles, making it essential to look beyond local markets for talent.
41%
41% of office-based businesses are struggling to find candidates with the right skills
31%
Only 31% of remote workplaces struggle to find candidates with the right skills
Remote models are finding it easier to draw from a wider talent pool, so they typically find it less challenging than traditional office-based firms to source skilled candidates.
What other challenges does the business world face around talent acquisition? And crucially, does the data show that borderless hiring is the answer?
Hiring managers are struggling to find skilled candidates locally
Across the board, businesses face widening skill shortages: 38% of hiring leaders report problems finding qualified candidates. In addition, 65% of recruiters note an increase in under-qualified applicants, and 74% of businesses say that surge is a serious issue.
The issue is most acute in traditional, office-based workplaces — 41% report difficulty finding skilled applicants compared with 31% of remote workplaces.
The move to remote and hybrid work has become more than just a perk: our survey shows flexibility improves hiring outcomes. Employers offering remote roles report higher candidate quality (26%), greater access to specialised talent (24%) and higher offer acceptance rates (24%).
Rising operational costs make acquiring top talent expensive
Budget limits are another major barrier. Twenty per cent of businesses cite budget constraints for advertising roles as a key issue, while 38% have seen recruitment costs rise because hiring takes longer than average.
Global, remote hiring can be a more cost-effective option. Thirty-one per cent of respondents reported lower overheads as a benefit of remote operations, and 23% noted cheaper talent costs. Firms that expand hiring beyond domestic borders also boost their odds of hiring top candidates, with 24% loosening location requirements to attract highly skilled applicants.
Employees are seeking a better life‑work balance
More than ever, life-work balance is a priority. Companies that don’t offer flexibility are quickly losing staff to those that do. Seventy-three per cent of hiring leaders say they’ve lost employees to firms offering greater flexibility, and 84% report growing candidate demand for flexible work overall.
For businesses that adopt remote and hybrid models, the benefits are clear. Employers offering “work from anywhere” perks report higher employee satisfaction (24%) and improved life‑work balance (38%). Other benefits tied to remote operation include increased employee satisfaction (40%) and productivity (39%).
Scaling in new markets requires local expertise
Expanding into overseas markets is complex without a local entity. Navigating local labour laws, compliance and HR requirements can be daunting — so it’s no surprise 77% of businesses reported issues with international labour laws in the last six months.
The challenge is bigger for companies trying to manage localisation in-house. Fifty-seven per cent of those with compliance problems were hiring through their own entity rather than using an Employer of Record. Those firms said an EOR could have sped up hiring (47%), improved their understanding of foreign labour laws (45%), and lowered compliance risks (40%).
AI is changing the face of international recruitment
Eighty-two per cent of global businesses expect to take on more staff this year. To secure top talent, 29% use pre-screening assessments, 28% work with specialist recruiting firms and 27% reassess role qualifications.
AI is also commonly used to simplify hiring, but it brings its own problems. Businesses now spend an average of 9.24 days sifting through irrelevant applications per role because of AI-generated CVs. Consequently, 39% of firms have reduced the time spent reviewing each application due to the volume of AI-created resumes. Moreover, 73% of businesses received AI-generated resumes in the past six months that contained false information, and a quarter say they regularly get more applicants than they can manage.
If you’re launching a global hiring push, you need a way to ensure you connect only with genuine, qualified candidates. For example, Recruit uses AI-powered sourcing and matching tools so you can instantly connect with a curated pool of global talent based on skills, availability and salary fit.
Remote global talent hotspot locator
More than ever, hiring managers want to make the most of global talent acquisition; but handling localisation, adapting to AI challenges and meeting shifting candidate expectations is no easy task.
To help, we built a talent locator that identifies the best regions for sourcing candidates across the most in-demand roles.
By analysing data from 34 countries across 25 key job roles, we’ve pulled together insights on candidate availability, average salary, hiring difficulty, AI impact and experience levels — giving you an edge when sourcing the best international applicants.
These are the factors we considered:
Average salary (USD): How affordable is it to hire here?
Difficulty to hire: How difficult is it to secure talent here?
Available talent (Supply: Talent vs Demand: Job Adverts): How many candidates are there compared to local job openings?
Experience level: What % of the talent pool has 8 or more years of experience?
AI impact: How likely is the role to be impacted by AI here?
Across all 34 countries reviewed, we can build a snapshot of the global talent trends across the roles in our study. Below is a summary, benchmarking each role against its total global talent pool, available opportunities, and averages. You can see how the roles stack up against core details including their average salary, candidate experience, difficulty to hire, and estimated impact of AI.

Remote Recruiting Report survey methodology
In 2024, Remote surveyed 4,126 Business/HR leaders (director level and above) with decision-making responsibility for the recruitment of staff across the UK, USA, Germany, France, Netherlands, Spain, Australia, Sweden, South Korea, and Japan to compile the survey data analyzed in this report.
In February 2025, Remote used real-time Horsefly data to analyze job role supply, demand, and hiring trends across 34 countries for 25 key roles.
For each role and location, the following metrics were pulled: Total Candidates, Average Salary (converted to USD$), Total Job Adverts, Difficulty to Hire, AI Impact, and Experience (% of talent pool with 8+ years of relevant experience). Using the metrics, Remote calculated a talent supply and demand 'hotspot' score to identify the locations where there is more talent than opportunities per country location. “-” indicates there was no data available via the tool.

The Difficulty of Hire score illustrates how challenging it might be to fill a job role. Using Horsefly’s data, it looks at past and real-time trends, including available candidates (supply) and job openings (demand). It considers location, industry trends, and competition.
The result is a score from 1 to 10:
1 = Easy to hire
10 = Very challenging to hire
What the 1–10 scale means:
1–2: Lots of candidates and low competition — hiring is easy.
3–4: Moderate availability and demand — hiring should be straightforward.
5–6: Average difficulty — requires some effort, but it’s manageable.
7–8: Hard to fill — limited candidates or high competition. You’ll need to adjust your strategy.
9–10: Very challenging — scarce talent or high demand. Success may require significant planning or extra incentives.
AI Impact
The AI Impact Score shows how much AI could affect a specific job role using real-time data and skills analysis to categorize each role.
The skills focus are:
AI Promoters: Skills likely to be enhanced or replaced by AI.
AI Neutral: Skills that might see some AI influence but won’t fully change.
AI Detractors: Skills unlikely to be affected by AI.
The result is a score from -100 to 100:
-100 = No major AI impact
100 = Severe AI impact
What the -100–100 scale means:
-100 to 9: No major AI impact. These roles are stable and unlikely to change soon.
10–29: Minimal AI influence. The role remains mostly unchanged.
30–49: Some tasks may shift, but the core role is unaffected.
50–69: Moderate impact. Certain tasks could be automated, requiring upskilling.
70–89: High impact. Many tasks may change, so early planning and adaptation are key.
90–100: Severe impact. The role and its key tasks could undergo significant transformation soon.
