Their specialized sourcing team has an intimate knowledge of local senior talent pools which is critical for hard-to-fill technical roles. > > **Cons**: The Absence of Native ATS Features is a minor drawback; while the hiring process is quick, having a full-featured Applicant Tracking System (ATS) built directly into the platform would streamline our internal candidate communication process even further. > > We availed of Rivermate’s hiring service for a specific niche software role in Japan and were amazed by both the quality and speed at which they delivered candidates.

It was 10 PM EST and I had a convoluted question about Portuguese labor law, which a local expert answered hundreds of miles away in just a few minutes on Slack. This level of full service, immediate support is truly unparalleled in the EOR space. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/495770/Rivermate?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/495770/Rivermate) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
