José Rosado · Client Story
100 Applicants to Sift. Hired in About 3 Days.
Spanish-Speaking Writer · Placed by HireUA
José has a large online audience, so a job post meant about 100 applicants to screen himself. HireUA sent 6 qualified candidates, and he hired a Spanish-speaking writer in about 3 days.
“I got 6 candidates from you guys, all of them were great, and I didn’t have to filter through anyone.”

From Our Clients
What Clients Say on Trustpilot.
Verbatim Trustpilot reviews from HireUA clients. The country shown is where the client is based.
“Used HireUA to hire my first employees for my company and they were absolutely fantastic. Helped pave the way for how I operate the business now. If you’re looking for extremely talented overseas employees, dont hesitate to reach of to HireUA. They make the process extremely simple and easy. They literally handle everything from sourcing, interview screening, managing, etc”
“I run an SEO agency and in July 2023, needed to hire someone to manage client projects as we grew. I reached out to HireUA and within days had potential candidates booked on my calendar and in weeks was onboarding one of those candidates onto the team. That hire is still with us today (a year later) and has been an incredible support to the team. Working with HireUA was fast and frictionless. If you want to bypass the gruelling search for talent online and get a real, skilled person on your team in weeks, go to HireUA asap.”
“We used HireUA to find a marketing manager for our agency. It was hands-down the smoothest hiring process we have ever had. In a few days, we had a curated list of great-fit candidates. We’ve had zero issues with our hire. We will be using HireUA again for our future needs!”
Why Latin America
It’s More Than Being on the Same Clock.
Time zones are the obvious advantage. The bigger one is the talent you can put to work inside that overlap.
01 / CREATIVE
Creative That Sells.
For e-commerce, editing and design are only half the job. We look for people who understand offers, testing, hooks and performance.
02 / SALES
Better Conversations.
Strong pools of US-facing sales and appointment-setting experience. Spoken English and objection handling still get screened one person at a time.
03 / COLLABORATION
Same-Day Work.
Feedback comes back today. Your developer can join the standup. Your editor can revise before the campaign launches.
04 / SPECIALISTS
Go Beyond VAs.
Skilled technical, creative and commercial professionals. A good search starts with the specific job, not the lowest advertised salary.

Honest Market Fit
Where Latin America Wins. Where It Doesn’t.
Our job isn’t to sell you on Latin America. It’s to get you the best hire. Sometimes those are two different things.
Another Region May Be Better If…
- European office hours are non-negotiable
- A very specialized technical profile is easier to source in another market
- The work is basic back-office processing and the lowest cost matters most
- The role needs licenses or legal authority tied to one country
Choose Latin America When…
- You want e-commerce creatives who work daily with a US team
- Your sales role depends on live conversations with US customers
- You need a developer inside your standups and sprint reviews
- You want an assistant for same-day calls, priorities and handoffs
The Big Four
The Roles We’d Search for Here First.
Not every position belongs in every market. These four are where Latin America is especially strong for US-facing clients.
01 / E-COMMERCE + CREATIVE
Creative Talent
Performance editors, designers, creative strategists and direct-response copywriters who know the creative has a business job to do.
02 / REVENUE
Sales
Appointment setters, SDRs and sales support who can handle live US conversations. We test with real calls.
03 / TECH
Developers
Software, Shopify and web developers who benefit from fast feedback and being online when your product team is.
04 / FOUNDER LEVERAGE
Executive Assistance
Executive assistants and operators who own calendars, client communication and handoffs through your working day.

Market Reality
What Working With Latin America Looks Like.
What we screen for, and what a hiring manager should expect.
| Time Zones | Many hires work naturally alongside US Eastern and Central teams, with workable Pacific overlap depending on country. | Mexico, Colombia, Brazil and Argentina don’t share one time zone. Confirm exact hours before interviewing. |
| Spoken English | Strong English speakers sound clear and familiar to US buyers, which matters in sales and support. | Fluency and accent vary a lot. We assess live conversation, not nationality. |
| Creative Skills | Experienced e-commerce creators understand offers, hooks, testing and ad-platform realities. | A beautiful portfolio doesn’t prove conversion thinking. Ask for the strategy behind the work. |
| Developers | Same-day sprint planning, QA feedback and production support for teams in the Americas. | Assess code, architecture and seniority. Depth differs by person and specialty. |
| Compensation | Strong economics compared with many equivalent US hires, with overlap built in. | Experienced sales talent and strong developers command premiums. Don’t hire on the lowest quote. |

Your Questions
Latin America Hiring FAQs.
Where in Latin America does HireUA recruit?
We search across the region and have placed people from Colombia, Mexico, Argentina, Brazil, Venezuela, Ecuador, Guatemala, Honduras, Uruguay, Paraguay, Bolivia, Costa Rica, El Salvador and Belize. HireUA recruits in 40+ countries overall. We pick the country for the role instead of forcing every position into one market.
Which roles fit Latin America best?
For US-facing clients: e-commerce creative talent, sales, developers who need live overlap, and executive assistants.
Do candidates have a neutral, American-friendly accent?
Some do, and that helps in sales and client-facing work. Not everyone does. We screen each candidate for clear English, pace, listening and comfort in US conversations.
Can a Latin American hire work US hours?
Often, yes. The exact overlap depends on where the candidate lives, daylight saving changes and the schedule you need.
How fast can I see candidates?
Candidates are presented within 5 days of kickoff. Matias Pirelli’s Latin America search took about two weeks with HireUA, after four months with another agency; Ali went from first contact to placed in 10 days.
What if another region would give us a better hire?
We’ll say so. You give us the seat to fill, and we recommend the market where we’re most likely to find the right person.
