Currently, it is harder to hire outside the US due to legality issues such as taxes, the gov. designed it so for US workers to remain "competitive".
It is apparent that if these regulations were irrelevant, the market will become more fair and corporations won't be able to secretly discriminate by location.
- tinyhouse 5y agoWhat regulations? From what I've seen all a company needs is to create an entity in the country they want to hire people. Since it's all remote they don't need an office or anything.
- thehappypm 5y agoHiring contractors abroad is certainly on the easy side, it’s actually even easier than you point out, because you can just hire an Accenture contractor or something and then you don’t even need to bother with having a presence in that country.
- mgh2 5y agoRegistering for a country costs money and legal resources, a hurdle most companies are not willing to incur. My hypothesis is that people are naturally lazy, so they find the easiest path. If recruiters know they have to go through extra loopholes and paperwork (if they don't have a system set up already), your likelihood of being hired decreases significantly. They won't admit this (illegal discrimination), but it is human nature.
