Frequently asked questions

Can a traditional staffing agency provide nearshore talent?

While some traditional agencies may have a network of nearshore talent, they often lack the in-depth knowledge of local markets and legal complexities. Revelo specializes exclusively in nearshore talent from Latin America, and our platform is built to handle all the administrative and legal challenges of international hiring.

What are the hidden costs of using a traditional staffing agency?

Traditional staffing agencies often have high placement fees and may not provide support after a hire is made. With Revelo, you pay a predictable, all-inclusive fee that covers sourcing, vetting, payroll, and compliance, giving you transparent pricing and no surprises.

How is Revelo different from a traditional staffing or recruiting agency?

Traditional staffing agencies charge high fees and often provide a pool of unvetted candidates, while Revelo offers a full-service platform with pre-vetted talent at a more competitive cost. We handle all payroll and legal compliance, providing an all-in-one solution that traditional agencies can't match.
