Reference / Background Checks in Mexico

February 23, 2011

Posted by in Whitepapers with no comments

Organizations looking to hire key managers or leaders in Mexico need to approach the hiring process with the same thoroughness mandated in other markets. Mexico lacks a centralized governmental database such as the Social Security System in Canada or the United States. As such, it makes checking credit and criminal history very difficult and problematic.

Cross Cultural Considerations for Americans Hiring in Mexico

December 8, 2010

Posted by in Whitepapers with no comments

FOREWORD

We have prepared this white paper as a very general guide to North American hiring managers that are looking to hire leaders, managers and staff in Mexico. This guide may also be found to be useful as a reference for other Western-oriented cultures but it’s important to note that this paper was prepared with the perspective of the US or Canadian hiring manager in mind.

It is also important to note that these are “considerations” and are not hard and fast rules

about cultural norms of human behavior. Much of the recruitment and hiring activity that Americans undertake in Mexico is focused on Mexico’s maquiladora industry followed by consumer products, service and the hospitality industry. We have strived to make this guide as general and inclusive as possible. However since the bulk of cross cultural technical and middle management hiring activity is centered on Mexico’s maquiladora industry, we have elected to prepare this white paper from the perspective of the maquiladora industry. Key take aways will be abundant and applicable to other industries as well.
