From Demand to Dispatch: KOES’s 6-Step Recruitment Excellence

At Kashmir Overseas Employment Services (KOES), we’ve spent decades perfecting our recruitment process to connect Pakistani talent with global opportunities. Our streamlined approach ensures we move from initial employer demand to successful candidate dispatch in just 4-5 weeks without compromising on quality or compliance.

The KOES Advantage: Speed, Quality, and Compliance

What sets KOES apart in the international recruitment landscape is our ability to balance efficiency with thoroughness. We understand that successful placements require careful matching of employer needs with candidate qualifications, while navigating complex documentation and regulatory requirements.

Our process has been refined through experience placing over 40,000 professionals with more than 100 companies across the Middle East, and now expanding to opportunities in Japan through the Technical Intern Training Program (TITP).

Our 6-Step Proven Process Explained

Step 1: Contract & Demand Assessment

The journey begins with a formal agreement between KOES and the employer. We receive:

• Signed contract outlining terms and expectations
• Detailed demand order specifying required positions and qualifications
• Power of Attorney authorizing KOES to act on the employer’s behalf

This critical first step ensures complete clarity on requirements and establishes the legal framework for the recruitment process.

Step 2: Strategic Candidate Sourcing

We immediately activate our candidate identification strategy:

• First, we search our extensive database of pre-screened, qualified candidates
• Our computer systems sort applicants based on the specific job trade requirements
• If our existing pool doesn’t meet the exact standards set by the employer, we launch targeted recruitment campaigns through advertisements in major newspapers across Karachi, Lahore, and Rawalpindi
• This dual approach ensures we access both ready candidates and fresh talent for specialized positions

Step 3: Multi-Layer Selection Process

Qualified applicants undergo our comprehensive evaluation:

• Initial screening to verify basic qualifications and experience
• In-depth interviews conducted by KOES recruitment specialists with industry expertise
• Trade evaluations to assess practical skills and knowledge
• Formal trade tests administered at certified Pakistani institutions with documented results
• Selection of candidates who best match employer requirements

This rigorous approach ensures we identify candidates with both the technical skills and personal qualities needed for success.

Step 4: Compliance & Documentation

Selected candidates proceed through necessary verification procedures:

• Medical examinations conducted strictly at hospitals approved by relevant embassies
• Preparation and verification of required documentation (passport, experience certificates, character certification)
• Biometric verification for identity confirmation
• Visa application and endorsement process
• Submission of candidate shortlist to the employer for final approval

Every step is conducted in full compliance with both Pakistani regulations and destination country requirements.

Step 5: Pre-Departure Preparation

Before departure, we ensure all details are managed:

• Procurement of emigration clearance from relevant authorities
• Submission of all required documents to the Protector of Emigrants
• Flight scheduling and confirmation
• Communication of travel details to the employer
• Comprehensive pre-departure orientation led by our Managing Director
• Cultural briefing specific to the destination country
• Clear explanation of job responsibilities, workplace expectations, and contract terms

This thorough preparation ensures candidates arrive ready to succeed from day one.

Step 6: Final Dispatch & Ongoing Support

Our commitment extends beyond recruitment:

• Final briefing session on duties and responsibilities immediately before departure
• Airport assistance and departure procedures
• Coordination with employers for airport reception and transportation
• Regular follow-up during the employment period
• Support for both employers and placed candidates throughout the contract
• Tracking of employee performance and contract completion
