Why choose a specialized recruitment agency?

A bad hire is expensive: up to 30% of the role's annual salary is lost when early turnover hits. A professional recruitment agency reduces that risk by applying active sourcing methodologies, industry-specific technical screening and validated psychometric assessments. At Mexican People HR we don't send resume catalogs: we deliver curated shortlists of 3 to 5 finalists who have already gone through competency-based interviews and reference checks.

Our consultants have a minimum of 8 years of experience in specialized recruitment and manage active databases of more than 80,000 professionals across Mexico. This lets us fill openings in an average of 15 days, even for scarce profiles such as senior software engineers, financial controllers or commercial directors.

Frequently asked questions

We answer the most common questions from HR leaders.

How much does a recruitment agency in Mexico charge?

Recruitment agencies in Mexico charge fees ranging from 15% to 30% of the hired candidate's gross annual salary, depending on the level of the role. Operational and technical positions usually carry a flat fee per opening. At Mexican People HR we design tailored proposals and only charge upon a successful placement (success fee), with a free replacement guarantee during the first 90 days.

How long does it take to fill a position?

On average we fill positions in 15 business days for technical and administrative roles, and between 25 and 45 days for management or executive positions. High-volume recruitment is delivered in weekly batches according to the search plan. Timing depends on the complexity of the profile, a competitive salary band and the location of the opening.

Which cities in Mexico do you operate in?

We operate throughout Mexico with a direct presence in Mexico City, Monterrey, Guadalajara, Querétaro, Puebla and Tijuana. We fill openings in any state in the country thanks to a nationwide network of consultants and regional candidate databases.

What guarantee do you offer if the candidate doesn't work out?

We offer a 90-calendar-day guarantee starting from the candidate's first day. If the employment relationship ends within that period for reasons attributable to the candidate (resignation, underperformance, lack of fit), we replace the hire at no additional cost.

What sets Mexican People HR apart from other agencies?

Three things: (1) senior consultants with 8+ years of experience by industry, not juniors still learning; (2) we deliver curated shortlists (3-5 finalists) instead of mass resume catalogs; (3) every candidate goes through competency-based interviews and psychometrics before reaching you, saving hours of internal screening.

Do you handle recruitment of foreign nationals or expatriates?

Yes. We have experience relocating international talent to Mexico, as well as sourcing bilingual or trilingual profiles (English, French, German, Japanese, Mandarin) for the automotive, aerospace, pharmaceutical and technology industries.

Can you work with startups, or only large companies?

We work with companies of all sizes, from Series A startups looking for their first head of engineering to Fortune 500 corporations. We adapt the scope and fees to the size of the operation.
