Even before moving to Israel: Jerusalem looks for tech workers abroad

The Jerusalem Development Authority is launching a tender for an entity to locate, recruit, and place new immigrants in high-tech companies in the city even before their arrival in the country.

The Jerusalem Development Authority is seeking a professional firm to aid in locating, recruiting, and integrating skilled immigrants into the city's high-tech sector. The tender aims to identify candidates with relevant academic and professional backgrounds before they even immigrate, through job fairs, personal counseling, and other activities.

The selected entity must have experience in placing at least 50 immigrants in technology companies in Israel since 2022, as well as conducting 10 employment activities abroad during the same period. Mayor Moshe Lion emphasized the city's need for more high-tech talent, stating that Jerusalem offers immigrants not just a new home, but a place to build a successful career.

CEO Tzahi Nachmias added that the authority views immigration as an opportunity for immigrants with high-tech skills to start a new chapter in their lives.
