Is Employ Borderless a real, established company?

Employ Borderless is a real, established advisory business led by named professionals who work with companies on EOR selection. The founders are named, the methodology is published, and the reviews are signed, so you can verify all three before working with the company.

Who is behind Employ Borderless?

Employ Borderless is led by its founders, Robbin Schuchmann and Paul Jansen, who advise companies directly. Both are named and easy to look up, with hands-on experience of the EOR providers they review. You know exactly who stands behind the advice, which is the point of running the advisory under their own names.

How does Employ Borderless make money?

Employ Borderless earns partner fees from EOR providers when a company it advises chooses one. That is why the advisory is free to the company hiring. The model ties the company's earnings to making matches that stick, rather than to charging clients for advice.

Is Employ Borderless's service free for the company hiring?

The advisory service is free to the company hiring. Employ Borderless is compensated by the providers through partner arrangements, so companies get matched and advised at zero direct cost. The funding model is published, so you can see how the advice is paid for.

Is Employ Borderless a scam or a legitimate service?

Employ Borderless is a legitimate advisory service run by named experts with a transparent, provider-funded model. The founders are named and easy to look up, the methodology and disclosure are published, and the reviews are signed. Every part of that is checkable before you share a single detail about your company.

Has Employ Borderless actually used the providers it recommends?

Employ Borderless recommends from direct, hands-on experience of the major EOR providers. The team tests the platforms themselves rather than working from marketing material, and the published methodology shows how that testing turns into scores. That grounding is what makes the guidance specific instead of generic.

What do companies say about working with Employ Borderless?

Companies that work with Employ Borderless report that the process is clear and quick, covering a short intake, a matched shortlist, and a direct line to the founders. Named, linkable testimonials are added as clients agree to share them.

Does Employ Borderless have real expertise in EOR selection?

Employ Borderless brings hands-on expertise in EOR selection through its founders' direct work with the providers. Robbin Schuchmann and Paul Jansen test the platforms, publish the scoring methodology, and sign the reviews. The expertise is inspectable: read the methodology and the reviews and judge the depth yourself.

What happens to my information when I work with Employ Borderless?

Employ Borderless uses your information to match you with the right provider, and shares it with a provider only when you choose to be introduced. The privacy policy sets out exactly what is shared and when. You can read that policy before starting, so you know what you are agreeing to.

Is Employ Borderless's discount real?

The partner rates Employ Borderless passes on are genuine negotiated discounts from its provider relationships. You can check the saving yourself by comparing the quoted partner rate against the provider's public list price before committing. The advisory is free to the company hiring, so the partner rate is additive rather than a fee in disguise.

How we handle your information is set out in our privacy policy. How we earn and how we review is documented in our disclosure and methodology.
