The Lupa Way
A proven process for building exceptional teams in Latin America.
We identified why the traditional recruiting process was failing and crafted a process that fills those gaps. Unlike traditional recruiting, we see exceptional talent as our product and placements as the first of many results.
Our process works because of the research we do upfront: digging deep into your business, team dynamics, and hiring goals. That groundwork lets us handpick candidates who are qualified and aligned. We help you understand cultural expectations, provide onboarding support, and provide guidance on how to develop talent who fit your business, your culture, and who believe in your purpose.
Our expert team is committed to guiding you through every stage, sharing insights, and supporting you beyond the process. Because for us, success is measured in meaningful, continuous partnerships.
We take time to understand your business, your team, and the bigger picture behind the hire. That first conversation lays the groundwork for a real partnership and makes sure we’re working toward the same definition of success.
Before we start searching, we dive into your company, your market, and the role itself. We map out where the right talent might be, build sample profiles, and prepare smart questions so we can hit the ground running.
We kick things off with a focused meeting where we narrow down the essentials. Together, we talk through must-haves, cultural fit, salary expectations, and make sure we’re all on the same page about the role and how the search will run.
We start contacting candidates right away, but we don’t rush it. Every candidate is carefully reviewed, with our team collaborating and double-checking each profile to make sure we’re finding the best possible matches.
We personally interview every candidate, digging into their skills, motivations, past results, and how they’d fit into your team. Our assessments go deeper than resumes so we truly understand each person’s story and what they can bring to your business.
You’ll get a curated shortlist of 3–4 top candidates, each with a clear summary showing how their skills and experience match what you’re looking for. We make it easy for you to decide with confidence. And if none are quite right, we use your feedback to refine our search and bring you candidates who are even better aligned.
When it’s time to make an offer, we help move the conversation to get everyone aligned and close the deal smoothly. After that, we stay involved to handle contracts, onboarding, and making sure your new hire integrates well into the team.
For us, the hire is just the beginning. We stay connected, sharing market insights, checking in on how your team’s doing, and supporting you as your Latin American operations keep growing.

“Lupa has been an exceptional partner this year, deeply committed to understanding our unique needs and staying flexible to support us. We're excited to continue our collaboration into 2025.”
"What I love about Lupa is their approach to sharing small, carefully selected batches of candidates. They focus on sending only the three most qualified individuals, which has already helped us successfully fill 7 roles.”
"We hired 2 of our key initial developers with Lupa. The consultation was very helpful, the candidates were great and the process has been super fluid. We're already planning to do our next batch of hiring with Lupa. 5 stars."
"Working with Lupa for LatAm hiring has been fantastic. They found us a highly skilled candidate at a better rate than our previous staffing company. The fit is perfect, and we’re excited to collaborate on more roles."
"We compared Lupa with another LatAm headhunter we found through Google, and Lupa delivered a far superior experience. Their consultative approach stood out, and the quality of their candidates was superior. I've hired through Lupa for both of my companies and look forward to building more of my LatAm team with their support."
“We’ve worked with Lupa on multiple roles, and they’ve delivered time and again. From sourcing an incredible Senior FullStack Developer to supporting our broader hiring needs, their team has been proactive, kind, and incredibly easy to work with. It really feels like we’ve gained a trusted partner in hiring.”
Working with Lupa was a great experience. We struggled to find software engineers with a specific skill set in the US, but Lupa helped us refine the role and articulate our needs. Their strategic approach made all the difference in finding the right person. Highly recommend!
Lupa goes beyond typical headhunters. They helped me craft the role, refine the interview process, and even navigate international payroll. I felt truly supported—and I’m thrilled with the person I hired. What stood out most was their responsiveness and the thoughtful, consultative approach they brought.
