What changes when you hire in Italy

Hiring in Italy FAQs

Which job boards do recruiters use in Italy?

InfoJobs (Highest-volume Italian board.); Indeed Italia (Italian edition of the global aggregator.); LinkedIn (Multinational and English-language roles.). Paste the ATS string into the keyword box of any board that runs on standard Boolean; platform-specific dialects — Indeed's title filter, Bing X-Ray and public-CV X-Ray — are generated from your live JD in the workspace.

How do I write a Boolean search string for a Category Manager in Milan?

Start from the ATS string above: alternate titles in one parenthesized OR group, core skills in a second, credentials in a third, and the location group last. It happens to be Milan here, so the same position works for any other city — swap the location term rather than rewriting the string. Keep operators uppercase, quote every multi-word phrase, and never nest more than two levels deep.

Do I need to search in Italian?

Hiring in Italy mostly runs in Italian, so an English-only title list returns a fraction of the market. Use the strings above for the English-language and multinational roles they are built for, and run a separate search on Italian job titles — the boards listed above are where those titles live. Do not translate and OR both languages into one group: that widens the result set instead of narrowing it.
