Recruitment Process
At SKOESL, we view recruitment as a precision operation built on trust and discipline. Our comprehensive 12-step process is designed to handle every detail—from rigorous candidate sourcing and skill verification to complex legal clearances and final deployment. By managing the entire lifecycle with military-grade efficiency and human care, we ensure a seamless experience that protects the interests of both global employers and the skilled professionals we serve.

Phase 1: Sourcing & Planning
- Client Approach (Requirement Received): The process begins when SKOESL receives the formal Demand Letter from the foreign employer. This document must specify the type and category of workers required, the terms of service, and the benefits offered.
- Setting Up Work Plan (Requirement Analysis): Our team conducts a thorough analysis of the requirements to ensure clarity and feasibility. We create a strategic work plan to fulfill the demand efficiently.
- Releasing Ads in Newspaper: To attract suitable talent, we publish vacancy advertisements in leading newspapers and digital platforms, ensuring maximum visibility among potential candidates.
- Sourcing from Existing Data Bank: Simultaneously, we shortlist the best candidates from the Government Data Bank or through our own direct sourcing methods to find immediate matches for the job profile.
Phase 2: Selection & Evaluation
- Screening of Shortlisted Applicants: We recruit and pre-select candidates based on their documents and experience. We conduct an initial evaluation to ensure they meet the specific criteria set by the employer.
- Interview Procedure: The final selection involves the employer directly. Foreign employers may interview pre-selected candidates in person. If a physical interview is not feasible, we arrange telephone or online interviews to facilitate the process.
- Practical Trade Testing: For technical roles, skills must be verified. Candidates undergo evaluation at BMET-accredited private testing centers. A skills evaluation certificate is issued to support their application.
- Medical Test: Upon accepting the employment offer, candidates undergo comprehensive medical and physical examinations to ensure they are medically fit for overseas employment and meet the health standards of the host country.
Phase 3: Documentation & Deployment
- Visa Stamping (Employment Formalities): This stage involves several critical legal steps:
- Documentation: We manage formalities with BAIRA. The employer provides a Power of Attorney authorizing us to handle visa processing.
- Agreements: An Employment Agreement (typically valid for two years and renewable) is signed, detailing benefits like vacation, sick leave, overtime, and insurance coverage in accordance with host country labor laws.
- Visa Processing: Using the Visa Advice/Authorization from the host country, we proceed with the official visa stamping on the passport.
- Emigration Clearance: Prior to departure, SKOESL secures the required recruitment permission and immigration clearance from the Bureau of Manpower, Employment and Training (BMET) under the Ministry of Expatriates’ Welfare and Overseas Employment (MoEWOE).
- Deployment of Candidate: This is the final mobilization step:
- Pre-Departure Orientation: Workers attend a briefing covering duties, salary, cultural values, weather, language, and work environment.
- Travel Plan: We coordinate flight bookings and finalize the itinerary to ensure a smooth journey from Bangladesh to the destination.
- Candidate Assessment Report (Feedback): The process doesn’t end at deployment. We actively collect feedback from both clients and candidates to evaluate the quality of our service. This helps us identify areas for improvement and ensures the continued satisfaction of our partners.
