Hello friends,
I am a new join here and would like to ask for your counsel. I just got a new job in a leading company based in Thailand, taking care of regional HR (Myanmar) and newly assigned to recruit new Myanmar staff by a number of 40 in technician positions. An issue of concern is that Myanmar has just opened its gates for investment, and I do not even know what types of schools exist in the country. That means I don't know how I can find a pool of qualified people there.
Thank you in advance for all your advice given.

Dear Concerned,
Greetings!!!
Being a regional HR, you cannot complain of a lack of knowledge about localization. Just start browsing on Google, and you will come across many technical schools that exist in and around your place of work. There are many steps that you can take in order to kick off your project.
1. You can start calling the placement/administrative heads of these schools, telling them to send final-year students for placement.
2. You can start a referral program in your own company wherein you can have some sort of incentive for those employees who refer successful candidates.
3. You can buy a database of job seekers and fetch data/pool of candidates from there. In my opinion, JobsDB and Monster Thailand are the two biggest databases out there.
4. If you have enough recruitment budget, then you can do job postings, job adverts, job fairs, etc.
PS: You need to remember that 40 is too small a number in terms of recruitment to get adversely affected by liberalization. Had it been 400, your concern would've been justified. Just stay positive and focused, you will achieve your target.

Dear BR,
When you work in a new country, it's essential to be fully aware of what you are getting into. I assume your company has established an office there. I recommend speaking with the country manager to gather as much information as possible, such as names of schools, government vocational programs, and more.
While I am unsure of your budget constraints, consider making a quick trip to get a firsthand understanding of the situation on the ground. Additionally, explore any relevant forums that may be available. Another valuable resource could be the Myanmar embassy in Bangkok. They typically have a business/commerce desk that can provide information and contact numbers. Their business desk is designed to assist with matters that benefit their country, so they should be willing to help.
Thank you.
