Process costs

Budgeting starts with role, source country, occupation, number of hires and target start date; only then can internal and external costs be separated reliably.

02

Mobility costs

Typical blocks include recruitment, translation, recognition, official fees, travel, temporary housing, language and internal support time; not all apply to every case.

03

Onboarding effort

Employers covering or reclaiming candidate costs should consider transparency, employment law and fair-recruitment principles. Hidden candidate fees damage trust.
