For Employers

Our Recruitment Process

Six stages from your first request to workers on site — and, at every stage, exactly who is responsible for what. Recruitment involves you, us and the destination government, and the difference matters.

Before You Start

Three Parties, Three Responsibilities

Overseas recruitment is often described as though one company does everything. It does not work that way, and employers who understand the split early have a far smoother process.

The destination government decides who may work in the country and issues the authorisation. The employer holds the hiring relationship, the quota and the employment terms. Golden Eagle GS sources and screens the workers, prepares and checks the documentation, and coordinates between the three sides so nothing stalls because a step was missed.

Each stage below states those responsibilities explicitly.

Needs Analysis

We assess your role requirements, headcount, and timeline.

The first conversation establishes exactly what you are hiring for: which trades, how many workers in each, the destination and work site, the standard of experience you expect, and when you need people on site. This is also where we tell you plainly whether the requirement is something we can source. If it is not, you hear that at the start rather than after weeks of process.

What you do

Describe the roles, headcount, destination, required experience and timeline. A written manpower request makes this faster, but a conversation is enough to begin.

What we do

We translate the requirement into a screening standard, confirm feasibility, and assign a single point of contact who stays with the request through to deployment.

Sourcing & Screening

Candidates are identified, interviewed, and vetted against your criteria.

Candidates are drawn from our own pipeline in Egypt and screened against the standard agreed in the needs analysis — trade competence first, then documentation readiness. Screening is where most of the value sits: it is the difference between receiving a shortlist you can act on and receiving a stack of applications you have to filter yourself.

What you do

Confirm the trade standard and any certificate or test the role depends on, so screening is measured against your definition rather than a generic one.

What we do

We source, interview and vet candidates, and verify that each one can realistically complete the documentation the destination requires before putting them forward.

Selection & Interview

You review shortlisted candidates and confirm your selections.

You receive the shortlist and make the hiring decision. Employers commonly interview remotely, run a practical trade test, or send a representative to assess candidates directly. Nothing moves forward into documentation until you have confirmed who you are taking.

What you do

Interview or trade-test the shortlist and confirm your selections in writing.

What we do

We arrange interviews and trade tests, brief candidates on the role, and hold the process until your confirmation.

Documentation & Compliance

We handle contracts, permits, and regulatory paperwork.

Each selected candidate needs a documentation set that satisfies both the destination and Egyptian requirements. The exact set varies by destination and by role, and some documents — educational and professional certificates in particular — may need authentication and legalization before they are accepted abroad.

What you do

Provide the employer-side paperwork your destination requires, and the signed employment terms for each selected candidate.

What we do

We assemble and check the candidate documentation set, prepare contracts, and manage certificate authentication and attestation where the destination requires it.

Decided by the authorities: Issuing authorities, the Egyptian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the destination embassy or consulate each certify documents within their own remit. We prepare and submit; they decide what they accept.

Visa Processing

Visa and work-permit coordination with the destination country's authorities.

Work authorisation is a government process, and it is important to be precise about where the boundary sits. The destination government issues work visas and permits. In Saudi Arabia, employer-side labour transactions run through the official platforms operated by the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development. The employer holds the recruitment quota and raises the request from their own account; the candidate supplies personal documents and attends any required medical or biometric appointment.

What you do

Raise the employer-side request from your own account, and confirm you hold the quota the destination requires for the roles you are filling.

What we do

We prepare and check the documentation the application depends on, coordinate between you and the candidate, and follow the application through to its outcome.

Decided by the authorities: Approval, issuance and timing are decisions of the destination government and its embassies. We do not control them, and we do not promise an outcome or a date.

Deployment & Onboarding

Candidates arrive and are onboarded, with ongoing support available.

Once authorisation is granted, travel is arranged and the worker is briefed on what to expect on arrival — the role, the site, and the terms they have signed. Support does not stop at departure; the account contact remains available after arrival for anything that needs resolving between you and the worker.

What you do

Confirm arrival arrangements, site induction and accommodation or transport where you are providing them.

What we do

We coordinate departure, brief the worker before travel, and stay available after arrival.
