Engage Hire with Near to source, vet, and onboard a qualified marketing manager for Mavka Capital who can contribute immediately to the organization’s marketing strategy and execution. The key deliverables include candidate sourcing and screening,. 
With Hire with Near identifying and pre-vetting experienced marketing manager candidates from their Latin American talent pool and presenting multiple qualified options within 2 weeks; candidate interviews and selection, where Hire with Near coordinates initial screening interviews while Mavka Capital conducts final interviews and makes the hiring decision; background verification and compliance, ensuring all regulatory and compliance requirements are met for international hiring.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The engagement with Hire with Near delivered several quantifiable results that demonstrate clear success: we reduced our time-to-hire from an average of 90+ days (typical for traditional US-based recruiting) to just 30 days from initial contact to offer acceptance. 
We interviewed 2 pre-vetted, high-quality candidates instead of sifting through dozens of unqualified applicants; our marketing manager was fully onboarded and productive within 3 weeks of starting, contributing to campaign strategy and execution immediately,
We eliminated approximately 40 hours of internal administrative work related to international payroll setup, compliance research, and benefits coordination; and we achieved a 60% cost savings compared to hiring a comparable US-based marketing manager at market rate, while maintaining the same level of expertise and output. 
Additionally, our new hire has maintained 100% attendance and engagement since starting, and has already launched successful marketing campaigns within the first 60 days, validating the quality of talent Hire with Near delivered.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Hire with Near’s project management was excellent throughout the entire engagement. They delivered on every milestone ahead of or on schedule—we received our first batch of qualified candidates within 10 days, faster than the 2-week window they initially quoted. Communication was seamless, with our dedicated account manager providing regular updates via email and scheduling check-in calls at key stages of the process without us having to chase them down. 
When we requested adjustments to the candidate profile midway through the search—specifically asking for stronger experience in digital marketing and paid media—they pivoted quickly and had revised candidates in front of us within 48 hours. They were highly responsive to our needs, typically replying to emails within a few hours and making themselves available for calls on short notice when we had questions about compliance or onboarding logistics. 
The handoff from recruiting to onboarding was smooth, with clear documentation and a structured timeline that kept everyone aligned. Overall, their project management felt organized, proactive, and genuinely client-focused, which made the entire experience feel low-stress and efficient.

What was your primary form of communication with Hire With Near?

Email or Messaging App

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

What I found most impressive about Hire with Near was how they combined speed with quality without sacrificing either. Many recruiting services can move fast but send you mediocre candidates, or they deliver great talent but take months to do it—Near managed to do both exceptionally well. 
The pre-vetting process was truly rigorous; every candidate we interviewed was polished, experienced, and ready to contribute from day one, which told me they weren’t just matching keywords on resumes but genuinely evaluating fit and capability. What made them unique was the all-in-one model—they didn’t just find us a candidate and disappear. 
They handled the entire employment lifecycle including payroll, benefits, and compliance, which removed a massive burden we would have otherwise had to figure out on our own for international hiring. Their deep focus on Latin American talent specifically gave them an edge over generalist platforms; they understood the market, knew where to find top-tier professionals, and could speak to the nuances of nearshore hiring in a way that felt genuinely expert rather than scripted.
The combination of white-glove service, specialized expertise, and end-to-end support is rare, and it’s what set them apart from other options we considered.

Are there any areas for improvement or something Hire With Near could have done differently?

While our overall experience was very positive, there are a few areas where Hire with Near could enhance their offering. For companies like ours that may look to make multiple hires in the future, volume pricing or package deals would be a welcome option to make scaling more cost-effective.
