Introduction

Latin America, with its diverse cultural heritage, is a relatively young and emerging market for Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO). While all the regions have shown good progress, growth of RPO in Latin America is noticeably higher. This trend is expected to continue in the future as well on the backdrop of successful RPO examples and increased investments by RPO service providers in the region. Numerous global service providers enjoy a high market share in the region owing to large number of multi-country deals that feature Latin America. Adoption by Latin America-headquartered buyers has also increased over the years, forcing service providers to develop region-specific strategies. Further, Latin America is a highly heterogeneous market with RPO maturity varying across countries. Buyers have diverse mindsets and, hence, service providers need to streamline their offerings accordingly.
