Why Ukraine? 

 

  1. A constant inflow of new skillful talent thanks to the strong educational system.  Universities with recognized leading technical programs are located in Ukraine. Due to the level of high education and the fact that working for a foreign company as a developer became a common ambition, the expansion of talent pools increased. The salaries in the local market are low and remote technology positions open the door for higher life quality and ability to triple the income and even more. As an employer, you will get people that really value their jobs and will try to prove to you constantly that hiring them was the right decision at the time. As general statistics, keep in mind that education is part of the culture in Ukraine, 87% of high school graduates going to colleges and universities, and 35% of those students choosing IT related subjects.
  2. There is a higher possibility to establish a closer working relationship and team spirit. It has to do with the physical distance- Ukraine is not far from Western Europe or Israel, within less than 3 hours, you can visit your team. Not only the physical aspect plays a role but also the culture that focuses on results, respects the employer, and encourages team collaboration in order to achieve goals. 
  3. The highest quality of software developed by Ukrainian programmers. If you go on further research, you will see that Ukraine is attractive to the best companies worldwide and they already have teams there.
  4. Ukraine companies comply with international standards such as ITIL and of course the simplified tax and legal system are an advantage.  Ukraine has International Agreements for the Avoidance of Double Taxation with 63 countries of the world.

 

There are many reasons why companies choose Ukraine and justification for it to be a source for high-quality developers. However, you should focus on the fact that in this market you will guarantee results at a cost-effective price. Here you can learn about the first steps in establishing an offshore team in Ukraine.
