Local knowledge
Competing companies, real salary bands, towns and mobility conditions. If your head office hands you a range drawn up in another country, the timeline stretches and nobody understands why.
Companies with regional operations
Recruitment for SMEs and multinationals in Patagonia, handled from Neuquén.
Estudio Sánchez Salas, based in Neuquén since 1987, handles recruitment for SMEs and subsidiaries of multinational companies that have no HR team of their own in Patagonia: middle managers, sales and administrative staff and regional management, without you having to travel.

The record
Have we already recruited for this role?
Type the role or tap one of these. We will tell you how many times we have run it, with the job ad for each search.
The record lists the searches published on our job portal: each one links to its ad. Searches filled without publishing an ad do not appear here. Job titles and ads are in Spanish, the language they were published in; you can still search in English.
The problem
Central management, regional recruitment.
A close approach
Good regional candidates respond better to someone who knows their context and who will still be here next year.
Fit before hiring
We assess expectations, the offer and the culture to reduce early departures. The search does not end when the person signs.
Packages
Four packages, from the job ad to headhunting.
Job ads and advertising
Only the initial contact with candidates: this is our recruitment advertising service. We publish and promote the ad; you run the selection.
- Job ad writing and publication
- Subscribed job boards and social media
- 30-day access to the platform
- 2 hours of advice per role
Single search
One specific position, from the initial briefing to the hire and the follow-up.
- Market map
- Candidate sourcing and interviews
- Psychometric assessment
- Shortlist of 3 to 5 finalists
Outsourced regional HR
A regional presence for companies with several searches a year and a centralised structure.
- Annual plan
- Monthly advice
- Salary market data
- Executive reports
Confidential headhunting
Management or C-level replacements with minimal exposure and support through to the close.
- Prior confidentiality agreement
- Active mapping
- Direct approach
- Small team
Questions
Questions from SMEs and multinationals.
I need to replace someone who is still in the role. How is that handled?
Through direct approach, with no published ad and with the team kept to the minimum needed. We sign the confidentiality agreement before the briefing. Those searches do not appear in the public record, precisely because they never had an ad.
My head office gives me salary ranges that do not work here. Can you help me with that?
Yes, and it is best done before opening the search. We put together a salary band report with the roles you are interested in, based on the searches we ourselves have run in the region: the real minimum, median and maximum, and the time to fill you can expect. It helps you defend the budget with your own data.
Do I have to travel to Neuquén to open a search?
No. The briefing, the reports and the presentation of finalists are done by video and in writing. If you would like to visit, we will be glad to welcome you at Belgrano 1216; but it is not a condition for working together.
Can you adapt to our head office's assessment protocol?
Yes. We adapt the test battery and the report template to the protocol your company requires, and we deliver in the format your headquarters expects.
How is each package billed?
It depends on the package. Job ads and advertising has a fixed fee: whether you hire one person or several, you pay the same. The single search is a fixed-price project, with an advance to start and the balance on hiring, according to the Human Resources fee structure. Outsourced regional HR is a tiered annual programme, and confidential headhunting works on a retainer plus a success fee.
How often will you update me on the search?
Every week and in writing: progress, the market surveyed, obstacles and pending decisions. It is part of the Methodical Search, the documented process behind every selection search, aligned with the ISO 9001 standard (we are on our way to certification).
Can you give me references from companies like mine?
Yes. Once the conversation moves forward, we give you the telephone contact of companies of your own sector and size, so that they can tell you themselves. On the site you will not find logos or signed testimonials, because of the Human Resources confidentiality policy: it is the same discretion we will apply to your search.
