Built for this decision.

For international recruitment agencies, people teams and nearshore advisers.

A hiring-market shortlist and comparable questions for local recruiters.

What arrives in your delivery.

  • 2–6 countries of your choice
  • Working-age share, participation, unemployment, tertiary enrolment, self-employment and internet use
  • English PDF and editable CSV
  • Observation years, indicator codes and source links
  • Decision brief, prefilled action register and an offline decision workspace

The limits travel with the data.

Country-level statistics do not estimate salaries, the number of candidates in a particular occupation, language skills or hiring difficulty. Tertiary enrolment is a gross ratio, not the share of adults with a degree.

You pay for selection, comparison and delivery. The underlying source data is publicly available.

Leave with a decision and a next action.

A hiring-market shortlist and comparable questions for local recruiters.

  1. Compare workforce context and observation years.
  2. Request comparable role-specific salary and availability evidence.
  3. Choose the next recruiting-market test.

Before a final commitment, resolve: Occupation-specific candidates, salary, employment costs, language and availability.

The sample is limited. Your delivery includes a decision brief, prefilled tasks, an Excel decision workbook and an offline workspace. Evidence gaps stay visible; a research task is not a verified buying opportunity.
