Employer questions, answered

Fill in the form at /formulyar or call +359 89 770 8001. We arrange a short call to define the roles, headcount, pay and working conditions and accommodation. Then we send an offer and a contract, which can be signed electronically.

No. We run both one-off recruitment for single roles and specialists, and mass recruitment for dozens or hundreds of people. Larger projects get a dedicated coordinator.

Every client has one lead coordinator responsible for recruitment, documents, deadlines and communication. You are never passed between departments.

Yes, nationwide. Relocation is planned around your specific site.

We recruit in more than 20 countries: the Philippines, India, Nepal, Bangladesh, Vietnam, Indonesia and Sri Lanka in Asia; Kenya, Uganda, Ethiopia, Morocco and Zimbabwe in Africa; Ukraine, Moldova, Georgia, Belarus, Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan in the East; Colombia, Guatemala and Argentina in Latin America.

We define the role, pre-select candidates in their home country, verify documents and experience, arrange online interviews with the employer, prepare the relocation package and finally organise travel, transport and onboarding at your site.

As standard we run pre-selection only: we verify experience, documents and references and interview the candidate. Practical or language tests are optional and delivered for an extra fee, at the employer's explicit request.

Yes. We present a shortlist with profiles, experience and interviews. The hiring decision always stays with the employer — we never assign people without your approval.

Workers from Asia and Africa usually speak basic to communicative English; candidates from Eastern Europe typically speak Russian and sometimes some Bulgarian. On mixed crews it helps to appoint an English-speaking team leader — we help you set that up.

Most often: production operators, warehouse and forklift operators, MIG/MAG/TIG welders, fitters and steel structure assemblers, general construction workers, steel fixers and formwork carpenters, electricians and maintenance mechanics, installation and finishing crews, food processing, agriculture, hospitality staff and C+E drivers.

Candidates realistically arrive within 1–3 months of signing the contract. The exact timeline depends on the capacity of public authorities, consular services, embassies and the visa system, which are outside the agency's control.

We usually present the first shortlist within 72 hours of agreeing the requirements, with online interviews in the following days.

Processing times at the relevant authorities, consular visa queues, missing information on the employer's side (working conditions, accommodation details) and seasonal peaks in applications. We report status continuously and chase deadlines.

If you need people sooner, we propose candidates from Eastern Europe or workers already legally in Bulgaria who change employer — then the start is measured in weeks, not months.

It depends on the country of origin, qualifications, headcount and scope (recruitment only, or the full package with relocation and accommodation). We quote after the requirements call — every item is agreed up front, with no hidden fees. Our online calculator gives an indicative estimate too.

Typically administrative fees, medical checks and safety training, and accommodation if it was promised in the employment terms. The split is defined in the contract.

No. We never charge candidates for finding work — as an employment agency we operate with full transparency towards the people we place.

Settlement is staged and tied to project milestones (recruitment start, candidate approval, worker arrival). The payment schedule is part of the contract.

We do. We plan the trip, meet the workers on arrival and drive them to their accommodation and to the plant on their first day.

We help find and arrange housing that meets the requirements for foreign workers, in agreement with the employer. We can also coordinate accommodation and commuting.

We provide welcome materials in the worker's language, support address registration, opening a bank account and obtaining the required identification numbers, and the coordinator stays in touch with both the worker and the supervisor during the first weeks.

Yes. We brief supervisors and team leaders on organising work, safety instructions and schedules to avoid misunderstandings. This usually decides whether the crew stays long term.

Yes. If a worker does not meet expectations within the agreed trial period, we provide a free replacement. Scope and duration are written into the contract.

We start the replacement procedure on contract terms and in parallel review the cause — usually accommodation, scheduling or communication, all of which can be fixed.

We process data solely to deliver recruitment and relocation services. Details are in our privacy policy.

Yes — Primework Group operates under the applicable employment law in the markets it serves, including the Bulgarian market via primework.bg.
