Three moments every manager knows.

Weeks of job posts, résumés, and no-shows, just to fill one seat. We do the searching and screening, then hand you a shortlist of people worth meeting. See how it works

1 / 3
  1. Hiring

    4 interviews, 3 no-shows, and the position is still open.

    With Remote Employee

    You only have interviews with people worth meeting.

    Weeks of job posts, résumés, and no-shows, just to fill one seat. We do the searching and screening, then hand you a shortlist of people worth meeting.

    Before you meet anyone, they’ve passed a resume review, a recruiter phone screen, and background and medical checks.

  2. Managing

    You hired help. Instead, you got more work.

    With Remote Employee

    Get someone who wants a career, not a job.

    You explain the task, then explain it again, then check it anyway. Our people learn your process and take ownership of the work.

    They work your hours, in your tools, under your supervision. We handle their employment, benefits, equipment, workstation, and red tape.

  3. Replacing

    You’ve replaced so often, the job posting has seniority.

    With Remote Employee

    No extra fees to get the position replaced.

    They finally get up to speed, then they quit, and you’re back to square one. If someone leaves, we find, screen, and line up their replacement for you.

    We run the search and screening again, so you’re not stuck in a hiring loop.

We find, screen, and employ. You choose and manage.

Hiring abroad means owning recruitment, payroll, compliance, HR, benefits, IT, and equipment. With us, it’s all handled.

Without us as a staffing solution, you’d own:

  • Recruiting & screening
  • Payroll & tax filing
  • HR & benefits
  • Employment compliance
  • Workstations & equipment
  • IT & security

All handled by Remote Employee

We find

We search the market for people who’ve done the work, screen them against your duties, and verify their backgrounds. You get a shortlist, not a stack of résumés.

FAQ

Common questions on hiring through Remote Employee®

Still figuring out if we’re what you need? Here are a few questions we get asked a lot.

You tell us who you need and what you need them to do. We recruit and screen candidates in the Philippines based on your requirements, then introduce you to the people who fit.

Then, choose who you want to move forward with and interview the candidates. If someone fits, let us know who you want to hire, and manage their day-to-day work. We handle all the details outside of their duties, including local employment, payroll, benefits, HR, IT, and ongoing employee support—so you can focus on managing the work.

It depends on the role, experience, and skills you’re looking for.

Once we know who you need, we’ll give you the cost upfront. There’s a one-time setup fee per employee, followed by a monthly fee. Businesses typically save 50–70% compared with hiring a similar role in the US with equivalent education, experience or other qualifications.

Most roles can be hired within 2 weeks (14 days), although depending on what you’re looking for and your schedule, it can take longer. The exact timing depends on the role and how specific your requirements are. If we expect the search to take longer, we’ll tell you upfront.

Remote Employee® is the legal employer. We employ your team member locally in the Philippines and take care of their payroll, taxes, contracts, and compliance. You just pay a set monthly invoice while we take care of the rest.

Yes, you meet the candidates, but we facilitate the interviews. All we need is your availability and who you want to talk to from the shortlist, but you ask the important questions.

We handle recruiting and initial phone screening, including background & medical checks, then introduce you to qualified pre-vetted candidates through a shortlist. After interviewing the ones you want, you choose which ones you want to hire.

No, you can hire either full or part-time employees through us, but either way, they’ll have a dedicated commitment to you and your organization.

They work your hours, use your tools, follow your processes, and focus on the role you hired them to do.

The RE Portal puts hiring and managing your Remote Employees in one place.

Browse candidates, manage interviews, view employee information, track time and performance, access documents, manage tasks, and stay on top of your team while we handle the local support behind the scenes.

Once you’ve chosen who you want to hire, we’ll deal with their employment contract, set them up with a workstation and equipment, prepare their benefits, and get them connected to you.

All you take care of is training them in your processes and managing them as a member of your team. Keep in mind, we have 24/7 IT support, so if you ever need assistance with the hire, we’ve got it covered.

Instead of paying your hires through payroll, you just pay our invoice at the end of the month. We take care of the details so that your hire is actually employed and not a contractor or freelancer. We accept bank transfers and credit card payments for the invoice.

There is a one-time setup fee per seat with us, but if you are replacing a hire, there are no extra fees. We offer a satisfaction guarantee so that you can replace them for free if you’re not happy.
