    What Finance teams say

    Reviews from US companies that hired finance staff through HiresLink.

    "Close used to take twelve days. With two accountants from HiresLink it's five. They benchmarked the role across Mexico, Colombia and Argentina and showed me where I'd get the strongest US-GAAP background for the budget I had. I hired out of Colombia on their recommendation."
