A Dorset recruitment consultancy has reported a huge increase in the number of US-based job candidates it has successfully placed with American firms.
Despite the 4,000 mile distance from Oakstone International’s office in Poole, the company has seen a 400% rise over the last two years, with its UK team securing around 80% of its US hires during the previous 12 months.
The business, which has satellite bases in Chicago and San Francisco and turns over $1m (£830,000) in the US, has found executives for American tech firms such as Introhive, Coupa, Simpplr and Pagerduty in the US.
