About Younity

The challenge The challenge

The complexity of global hiring

As Younity scaled its customer base and operations, it realized a need for outsourcing. However, its talent strategy was complicated by the fact it required the business agility to scale up (and down) according to changing market trends. What’s more, Younity's expansion into over a dozen new countries presented a hiring challenge: Swiss law made traditional employment contracts unfeasible.

Once this repeatable process was established, it scaled its presence to 16 more countries with a team of 60+ project managers, translators, admin assistants, customer service agents, and marketing experts.
