4 reasons United States founders are quietly hiring in Europe instead of doubling down on United States salaries.
A mid-level United States tech hire costs around $151,000 a year once you add healthcare, retirement contributions, payroll tax, and equipment. The same role in Europe costs around $61,000. No benefits stack, no payroll tax. Just the salary.
4 to 6 hours of overlap with United States Eastern time every day. Real-time standups, smooth collaboration, answers before you go to bed. No 18-hour offshore wait.


Your European hire is a contractor, responsible for their own taxes, healthcare, and benefits. You pay one invoice a month. No payroll setup, no W-2 paperwork, no visa sponsorship. Your team saves 60+ hours of admin per hire, every year.
European hires stay 3 to 5 years on average. United States tech employees stay 1.5 to 2. Your senior developer today is still your senior developer in 4 years. No rehiring loops, no knowledge reset every 18 months.
Pick the role, set the salary, and watch the true cost of a US seat land next to a European contractor. Live numbers, no email needed.
Three hiring paths compared, with the methodology behind every number.
We do the hard work of hiring your next European team member. $6,500 flat - and you only pay the back half once they've signed.
We get on a call, pull the role apart, and rebuild it for the European market. Then we hit our network.
Headhunting, structured interviews, skills tests, references. You see a shortlist of 4-5. No filler.
You run the final round. We handle the offer, paperwork, references, and a clean handoff.
Final $3,250 invoiced after signature. 12-month replacement if it doesn't work out, our incentives are aligned with yours.
30 minutes. No obligation.
Most US founders compare 3 to 4 options. Here's the honest scorecard.
Real hires we've placed for US companies. Same quality, fraction of the cost.
Every candidate is AI-native and comfortable in modern AI-augmented workflows. It's how today's best European hires work. we donβt sell that as a feature, itβs expected.








We needed a senior marketing manager. US recruiters quoted $130K. Julien and the Euro Remote Talent team found us an incredible Portuguese candidate at half the cost. Same quality, better timezone overlap than expected.
The flat fee model was refreshing. No percentage games, no hidden costs. Julien's team had candidates pre-vetted and ready. We hired our top pick in three weeks.
After hiring our Operations Manager through Julien and his team, we hired three more through them. Someone who understands both European and US work culture made all the difference.
The Euro Remote Talent team saved us 40 plus hours we would have spent on bad interviews. Julien curated a shortlist where every candidate was worth talking to. Six months in, our hire is outperforming our US team.
Julien and the team walked us through the EOR setup in two days, not two months. We were paying our new hire within a week. Felt like a hiring partner, not a vendor.
The twelve-month guarantee meant we hired without second-guessing. Six months in, the engineer is killing it. Best money spent on recruiting in three years.
Our European hire has been with us eighteen months. Twice as long as any US contractor we worked with before. Retention alone paid back the fee three times over.
Same calibre as US hires at half the burn rate. Our finance team thanked me. So did our investors. The math is straightforward.

Our SEO had stalled for two quarters. Julien placed a specialist from Poland and we doubled organic traffic in six months. Half the cost of a US agency, twice the focus.
Julien's team does the heavy lifting. Defining the role, sourcing, screening, interviewing. We just picked from a short list of great candidates and signed an offer.
We needed someone in our timezone. Euro Remote Talent's European bench gave us four to six hours overlap with our US team. Better than Asia and easier to manage.
I was skeptical about a US-based recruiter sourcing in Europe. Turns out being on our timezone made the difference. Communication felt local.

I'm Julien Sicard. I spent 6 years running a marketing agency with a fully remote team. At our peak we were 32 simultaneously across Europe. Designers, developers, marketers, project managers, every one hired by me personally.
Across those years I've placed more than 1,500 remote professionals. That volume taught me what every recruiter eventually learns: people who interview well are rarely the ones who deliver. I also learned to test for something newer, fluency in modern AI workflows. The best European hires combine craft with judgment. They are comfortable in Cursor, Claude and Copilot, careful about when to lean on them, and shipping faster than US peers paid twice as much.
Euro Remote Talent is a United States company built for United States founders. We operate from Tallinn, Estonia, at the doorstep of Europe's deepest, most AI-native remote talent pool. Every candidate on this site has been through the same vetting process I built across 1,500+ placements. You get the benefit. I do the work.

We stand behind every placement.
