Would an international search help your organisation find the skills it needs?

When local recruitment does not yield suitable candidates, employers may need to consider international talent to fill key roles.

Understanding local talent shortages provides valuable insight into the need for global skills.

The 2026 Critical Skills Survey asks employers whether international recruitment could help address current skills shortages.

The Trusted Employer Scheme was introduced to create a more efficient and predictable process for large multinational organisations to secure key skills from the international talent pool. But how is it performing in practice?

As part of the 2026 Xpatweb Critical Skills Survey, employers admitted to the Trusted Employer Scheme are invited to share their experience of the programme, including whether it has reduced administrative pressures, improved processing timelines, and assisted businesses in securing the skills required to remain competitive in the global talent market.

These insights will play an important role in informing future discussions around the evolution of the Trusted Employer Scheme and South Africa’s broader immigration landscape.

Does the latest Critical Skills List cater to the skills your business needs?

As business requirements change, it is important to understand whether the current list still reflects the occupations employers are actively trying to recruit.

As industries evolve and new specialisations emerge, employers are often the first to identify where skills gaps exist.

The 2026 Critical Skills Survey allows employers to share whether the list supports their hiring needs or whether gaps remain.
