Overview

MobSquad helps US-based startups and scale-ups access technology talent by creating a turnkey virtual Canadian subsidiary. Its service lets tech professionals who have US visa challenges continue working for their current employer, but from Canada (nearshore). The process hinges on a government partnership that issues work visas for tech workers and their families within four to six weeks, with permanent residency possible in six to eight months. MobSquad also brings in top global tech talent and relocates them to Canada to work with its clients on an exclusive, long-term basis. Beyond staffing, MobSquad handles ongoing administration for talent in Canada, including immigration support, resettlement, payroll, legal, tax, HR, real estate, benefits, and accounting. In short, MobSquad fills the talent gap by providing a nearshore talent pipeline, end-to-end relocation and admin support, and a stable, long-term talent relationship for its clients.
