Remote recruiting report
How AI, remote work and updated legislation are reshaping 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 identify the regions with the strongest candidate pools for the most in-demand roles.
Demand for skilled workers is outpacing supply across several sectors — notably tech, finance, business and online retail. At the same time, a large group of qualified candidates cannot access these opportunities because of geographic constraints. That contradiction is the central challenge in today’s labour market, prompting companies to widen their searches while using AI and other new technologies to preserve efficiency.
Top talent rarely lives next door. International recruitment brings its own complications: our recent survey of more than 4,000 business and HR leaders tasked with staff recruitment found that 77% reported troubles navigating international employment laws in the last six months. Despite these obstacles, hiring teams are pressing on.

Global hiring trends: the state of borderless talent acquisition
Employer of Record (EOR) services are steadily changing the view that international hiring is impractical, making global talent more reachable than before. And with good reason — by 2025 companies can rarely afford to limit recruitment to domestic markets. The growing scarcity of local specialists, rising employee costs, and the disruptive influence of AI have moved global talent acquisition from being optional to being essential.
To chart the current state of international hiring, we surveyed more than 4,000 business and HR leaders (director level and above) who decide on staff recruitment 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 options now regarded as standard by many workers, flexible working arrangements have become a major draw for highly skilled candidates.
77%
77% of businesses have faced issues with international employment laws within the last six months
As firms widen their talent searches internationally, complex cross-border labour rules are becoming a significant barrier, frequently slowing hiring and adding extra layers of complexity.
38%
38% of hiring leaders report difficulties finding candidates with the right skills
As skill shortages grow across industries, businesses are finding it harder to fill vital roles — making it increasingly important to look beyond local talent pools.
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 better able to draw from a wider candidate base, so finding qualified people with the right skills is less of a challenge compared with traditional office-based firms.
What other obstacles do businesses face when acquiring talent? And crucially, does the evidence show that borderless hiring is the answer?
Hiring managers are struggling to find skilled candidates locally
Across industries, skill gaps are widening: 38% of hiring leaders say they cannot find suitably qualified candidates. Recruiters also report a rise in under-qualified applications — 65% have seen an increase, and 74% of businesses regard the surge in under-qualified applicants as a serious problem.
The issue is felt most acutely by traditional office-based employers — 41% struggle to find skilled applicants compared with 31% of remote workplaces.
The move to remote and hybrid working has become more than an employee perk: our survey shows that flexibility improves hiring outcomes. Companies offering remote roles report better candidate quality (26%), improved access to specialised talent (24%) and higher acceptance rates for offers (24%).
Rising operational costs make acquiring top talent expensive
Budget limits are another key challenge for hiring teams. Twenty percent of businesses say tight budgets hinder role advertising, while 38% have seen recruitment costs rise because hiring is taking longer than average.
Hiring globally and remotely can offer a more cost-efficient alternative. Thirty-one percent of respondents cited reduced overheads as a benefit of remote operations, and 23% noted lower talent costs. Firms that open roles to international candidates also increase their odds of securing top talent: 24% widened a role’s location requirement to attract highly skilled applicants.
Employees are seeking a greater life-work balance
More than ever, life-work balance is a priority. Firms that do not offer flexibility are quickly losing staff to those that do. Seventy-three percent of hiring leaders say they’ve lost employees to companies providing greater flexibility, and 84% report rising candidate demand for flexible work overall.
For organisations that adopt remote and hybrid models, the benefits are clear. Employers offering “work from anywhere” options report higher employee satisfaction (24%) and improved life-work balance (38%). Other remote-working benefits include increased satisfaction (40%) and boosted productivity (39%).
Scaling in new markets requires local expertise
Entering international markets can be complex without a local entity. Dealing with local employment laws, compliance obligations and HR matters is challenging. It is therefore unsurprising that 77% of businesses reported issues with international employment laws in the previous six months.
The burden is higher for companies attempting to resolve localisation issues internally. Fifty-seven percent of those facing compliance problems were hiring through their own entity, without an Employer of Record. Respondents said an EOR could have sped up hiring (47%), improved understanding of foreign employment rules (45%), and lowered compliance risks (40%).
AI is changing the face of international recruitment
Eighty-two percent of global businesses expect to hire more staff this year. To secure top talent, 29% use pre-screening assessments, 28% work with specialist recruiting firms and 27% reconsider role qualifications.
AI is also widely used to simplify hiring, but it brings challenges. Companies now spend an average of 9.24 days filtering out irrelevant applications per role because of AI-generated CVs. Consequently, 39% of businesses have been forced to cut the time spent on each application due to the volume of AI-created resumes. Further, 73% of businesses received AI-generated CVs in the past six months containing false information, and a quarter say they frequently get more applicants than they can manage.
If you are planning a global hiring drive, you need a method to ensure you contact only genuine, qualified candidates. For example, Recruit uses AI-powered sourcing and matching tools so you can instantly connect with a curated pool of international talent based on skills, availability and salary fit.
Remote global talent hotspot locator
More than ever, hiring managers want to harness the power of global talent acquisition; yet dealing with localisation, adapting to the challenges presented by AI and meeting fast-changing candidate expectations is not straightforward.
To help with this, we built a talent locator that identifies the best regions to source candidates for the most in-demand roles.
By analysing data from 34 countries across 25 key job roles, we produced insights on candidate availability, average salary, hiring difficulty, AI impact and experience levels — equipping you to target 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.

International recruitment with Remote
The current landscape: Companies are struggling to source suitably qualified candidates as hiring costs rise and regulatory complexity slows recruitment. At the same time, candidates expect greater flexibility, which intensifies competition.
This is why we launched Recruit — a major innovation that pairs advanced sourcing capabilities with clear guidance to help you identify top talent and manage global complexity so you can move quickly, hire more intelligently, and scale with confidence.
Global talent acquisition, made simpler with Recruit by Remote
Sourcing candidates in unfamiliar markets can be daunting, particularly where established hiring approaches do not apply worldwide. Recruit removes obstacles by giving you access to an extensive global talent pool with advanced sourcing tools, AI, real-time data, and built-in compliance to streamline hiring from end to end.
Find top talent more quickly: Use simple, natural-language searches to scan millions of qualified candidate profiles.
Talent insights: Uncover talent concentrations and identify where the strongest candidates for specific roles are located.
Post job adverts in minutes: Advertise roles to applicants around the world on Remote’s job board.
AI-powered matches: Quickly identify best-fit applicants, reducing the time spent manually reviewing applications.
Compliant by default
Hiring across borders often involves complex employment legislation, burdensome tax rules, and administrative hurdles that cause headaches. Recruit integrates directly with Remote’s Employer of Record Service, meaning you can hire like a local.
One-click onboarding: Employ staff compliantly across multiple countries with a single click.
Built-in compliance: We make sure all contracts, payroll, and benefits comply with local regulations.
Integrated payroll & HR: Oversee payments, taxes, and HR tasks with ease.
An end-to-end solution for international hiring
Stop juggling multiple systems simultaneously. Recruit is a unified platform that brings together EOR, payroll, HRIS, performance management, and top-of-funnel recruitment tools into a single, user-friendly interface.
Everything in one place: From sourcing your ideal hire to handling month-to-month payroll after they’re on board.
Ultimate cost transparency: No hidden fees, just straightforward, usage-based pricing so you can keep track of your budget.
Enterprise-grade security: Remote’s tools use enterprise-level data protection protocols to ensure sensitive company information remains under your control.
Remote recruiting report survey methodology
During 2024, Remote surveyed 4,126 Business/HR leaders (director level and above) who had recruitment decision-making responsibility for staff across the UK, USA, Germany, France, the Netherlands, Spain, Australia, Sweden, South Korea, and Japan to compile the survey data analysed in this report.
In February 2025, Remote analysed real-time Horsefly data to assess job role supply, demand, and hiring trends across 34 countries for 25 key roles.
For each role and location, Remote extracted the following metrics: 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 these metrics, Remote calculated a talent supply-and-demand "hotspot" score to identify locations where talent outnumbers opportunities by country. “-” indicates there was no data available via the tool.
Data points used for this report
The scoring for Difficulty to Hire and AI Impact is based on the following:
Difficulty of Hire
The Difficulty of Hire score reflects how hard a role may be to fill. Drawing on Horsefly’s data, it examines historical and live trends — including available candidates (supply) and job openings (demand) — and takes account of location, industry trends, and competitive pressure.
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: High candidate numbers and little competition — hiring should be straightforward.
3–4: Moderate candidate availability and demand — recruitment is normally uncomplicated.
5–6: Typical level of difficulty — some effort required, but manageable.
7–8: Hard to fill — few candidates or strong competition; you will need to adapt your approach.
9–10: Very challenging — scarce talent or high demand. Success may require detailed planning or additional incentives.
AI Impact
The AI Impact Score indicates the degree to which AI might influence a particular job role, using real-time data and skills analysis to classify each role.
The skills focus are:
AI Promoters: Skills that AI is likely to augment or replace.
AI Neutral: Skills that may experience some AI influence but will largely remain unchanged.
AI Detractors: Skills that are unlikely to be impacted 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:
-100–9: No major AI impact. These roles are stable and unlikely to change in the near term.
10–29: Minimal AI influence. The role remains largely unchanged.
30–49: Some tasks may shift, but the core responsibilities stay intact.
50–69: Moderate impact. Certain tasks could be automated, making upskilling important.
70–89: High impact. Many tasks may change, so early planning and adaptation are essential.
90–100: Severe impact. The role and its core tasks could undergo major transformation soon.
