AURAY Sourcing: A Turnkey Solution for Quebec Businesses to Address the Workforce Shortage Challenges
MONTRÉAL, June 3, 2019 – AURAY Sourcing, a Raymond Chabot Grant Thornton subsidiary specializing in international recruiting and mobility is offering a new foreign worker recruiting service for Quebec enterprises to help them deal with the workforce shortage issue.
This turnkey service covers all the steps involved in the arrival of immigrant workers: recruiting specialized candidates from around the world and for all industries, selecting candidates based on specified criteria and supporting the selected candidates and businesses during the immigration process, up to and including meeting the temporary workers on arrival and helping them integrate within their professional and social environment. Integration has proven to be the key success factor for immigration and development in Quebec.
AURAY Sourcing President, Marc Audet, said: “Local businesses having difficulty filling vacant positions need to find creative solutions to this problem. The labour issue continues to be a challenge for Quebec SMEs. The war for talent cannot be limited to the regional level since potential employees often come from the same pool and this remains the preferred option for employers. One possible option is to recruit specialized talent outside the country and use temporary immigration to fill key positions. With more than 100,000 jobs to be filled in Quebec alone, growth is being hampered.”
The strength of an international network and unparalleled expertise
The AURAY Sourcing team leverages the expertise and experience of AURAY Capital, the Quebec leader in supporting immigrant investors for 25 years. With more than 25,000 immigration projects to its credit, the expanded team of these two Raymond Chabot Grant Thornton subsidiaries has all the necessary skills to successfully carry out international recruiting initiatives for local businesses.
AURAY Sourcing benefits from an unmatched global network of recruitment partners, a bank of prequalified candidates, as well as a solid understanding of Quebec businesses based on the support of Raymond Chabot Grant Thornton and the countries where it recruits foreign workers.
Hiring foreign resources may seem to be a complex, costly process. However, with the collaboration of experts in the field, it can prove to be a successful solution for business leaders who see it as an investment. This innovative turnkey service is designed to meet the immediate and long-term needs of SMEs in various industries, such as manufacturing, tourism, technology and healthcare.
Canada is an extraordinary host country with an exceptional advantage that can be leveraged to attract foreign talent. AURAY Sourcing has contacts in more than 100 countries and is the only firm in the market with such a comprehensive service offering. It has the ability to work with organizations from start to finish during the recruiting process, as well as being able to provide proximity and the resources and expertise of a major firm to its clients.
A 360o human resources service offering for local businesses
Emilio B. Imbriglio, President and CEO concludes: “With AURAY Sourcing, Quebec employers can now count on Raymond Chabot Grant Thornton to support them through all of the talent recruiting process, whether here or abroad. In a labour shortage context, our integrated recruitment and human resources and management consulting services will make it easier for business leaders by supporting them in all areas from search to recruitment and integration of local or foreign talent.”
