Costs and Benefits

Outsourcing to the Pakistan can result in cost-savings of up to 70%. These cost-savings are due to the exceptionally low living costs in the Pakistan when compared to the locations such as the U.S and Australia.

Once we’ve found the right people for your team, we set them up within our modern, state-of-the-art office facilities, including furniture, IT infrastructure, and support.

The recruitment process is quite similar to hiring a local employee through a recruitment company. We take your brief and handle the search, shortlist and initial interviews for you, then once you’ve chosen the staff member/s you’d like to be in your team, we employ them, ready for you to onboard.

Here are the basic steps in the process:

  1. You provide job descriptions for each member of the team
  2. One of our recruiters will call you to discuss your needs further
  3. We advertise in all the major job boards in the Pakistan and also go through our own carefully curated talent pool of over 50,000 applicants to find the right person for each of your roles
  4. We interview several people for each role, and present you with a shortlist of the most suitable candidates
  5. You conduct final interviews remotely, using video chat
  6. You choose your favorite candidates for each role
  7. We extend an offer of employment to each
  8. When they accept, we agree on their start date
  9. Upon commencement, we set them up in our offices, with a desk, computer, phone, internet connection, agreed software and anything else they need
  10. We conduct onsite inductions.
  11. You train the employee in any special requirements for their role.

Depending on the role you are outsourcing, BizOutsource recruitment process may lead to candidates who have already got systems experience and relevant accreditations; reducing the amount of training necessary. This will become evident throughout the recruitment process as you will be communicating with our talent acquisition team regularly.

You should provide training on your company’s history, products, services, processes, special software, tone of voice and policies – as relevant. You’ll also need to communicate tasks and responsibilities to your remote team, check in on their progress and answer their questions. We recommend using project management systems and text-chat software. Daily communication helps everyone feel like part of a team and gets the best outcome for your business.

BizOutsource account manager will proactively support your goals, throughout, including providing well documented processes for performance improvement and disciplinary actions. We also have a training department and  training library for most disciplines.

We use state-of-the-art video conferencing systems so that your offshore and onshore team communicate seamlessly throughout the course of their employment. From training and inducting new team members, to weekly catch-ups and performance management, we have online, face-to-face options to suit.

We’re delighted to support you as your business grows. You can add new team members at any time, as your needs change. Simply contact your account manager, and we’ll find the right person for your team.

No, we generally recommend you work with full-time staff that are dedicated to your business to ensure consistency in the delivery of their tasks and responsibilities.

Our staff are flexible and will work the hours your business requires them to. This is especially helpful for clients who work in different timezones If you need them to work according to your onshore team’s business hours, we will accommodate and make sure they are online during those times – we can support whatever your requirements may be.

It depends on the situation. If it’s due to poor performance, we’ll provide you with a well-documented performance management framework, which includes fair warning, an evaluation period and an escalation process that can lead to termination. If you would like to dismiss a staff member for reasons not associated with performance, your account manager can provide guidance on whether there may be any additional costs at the time.

No. Your staff member/s will be 100% dedicated to your business. They are just like one of your onshore team members. You wouldn’t have your onshore staff work for another business or a competitor while on your payroll, so neither do your offshore employees.

Your offshore team’s salaries are all accounted on per hour basis, all inclusive invoice that you will receive monthly from us.

General

If you plan to completely replace a local (onshore) team with an offshore team, then obviously your local team will be negatively impacted. But if you’re offshoring to free up your local team’s time, allowing them to focus on higher value tasks, then they’re sure to thank you for it. They’ll finally be able to action all those ‘one day’ tasks they’ve been putting off for months or even years.

Overall, offshoring is good for local employment. There’s a misconception that it means losing local jobs, but the reality is it strengthens your business and helps you compete long-term, which is excellent for local employees. The majority of BizOutsource clients don’t reduce local staff numbers at all.
