# South (Hire in South) > South (hireinsouth.com) is a recruiting and staffing service that helps growing U.S. companies hire pre-vetted, full-time remote professionals from Latin America for 30-70% less than U.S. salaries. South handles sourcing, vetting, compliance, and global payroll. Interviewing is free and clients pay only when they hire. South sources from a pool of 120,000+ pre-vetted professionals and accepts roughly the top 1% of Latin American talent. Candidates are screened for spoken and written English, internet reliability, behavioral and communication fit, and reference checks. Latin America is positioned for nearshore hiring because of U.S.-aligned time zones, strong English, cultural fit, and remote-work experience. Average time to hire is about 16 days; 1,000+ professionals have been placed across 300+ companies. Pricing has two models. Staffing (most popular): a small recurring fee on top of the employee's salary that covers sourcing, recruiting, admin, payroll, compliance, and ongoing support, with no minimums or cancellation fees and a free replacement if needed. Headhunting: a one-time placement fee with a 120-day replacement guarantee. For both, clients only pay if they hire. Roles are full-time only. ## Get started - [Home / How South Works](https://www.hireinsouth.com/): Overview of the service, process, and proof points. - [Start Hiring](https://www.hireinsouth.com/start): Begin the hiring process or schedule a call (free to interview). -
