About Pittsburgh’s programs and services are personally designed to meet the specific needs of your candidates and new hires. Our goal is to present Pittsburgh from your candidate’s perspective.
Today’s war for talent has challenged many Pittsburgh companies and institutions to find successful solutions when attracting the brightest talent to our region. About Pittsburgh successfully partners with you to help your candidates and their families overcome lifestyle barriers that a potential relocation may present. Through listening to your candidates’ needs, providing extensive research and offering custom-designed introductions to Pittsburgh, we can help your candidates and their families visualize their life in Pittsburgh, helping them to accept an offer.
Once a decision has been made to relocate, new hires and families have more detailed questions than they typically might have during the recruitment process. About Pittsburgh helps your new hires and their families strategize and prioritize their beginning steps for moving, and once they have relocated helps them assimilate smoothly into their new community. This allows your new hires to hit the ground running on day one at work, and their families to feel comfortable with their new surroundings.
The Pittsburgh region is becoming increasingly global with more companies, institutions and organizations attracting talent from outside the United States. About Pittsburgh offers many resources to help your expatriates and new hires quickly understand the settling-in requirements of an international move, ensuring a sense of security and confidence when making lifestyle decisions.
