- Frequent English proficiency at a communicative level

Why the agency is key
| Stage | Risk in independent selection | Agency's role |
|---|---|---|
| Finding people | Random candidates without experience | Network of local partners and recruiters |
| Verification | Inability to verify documents | Pre-selection and on-site interviews |
| Documents | Errors lead to months of delay | Full documentation management |
| Visa | Unfamiliarity with consulate practice | Preparing candidate for visa process |
| Arrival | Lack of landing logistics | Transport and greeting organization |
