Our earnestness and ardent services blended with highest standard of professionalism has earned us much sought after global appreciation, trust and poise. Densely populated Bangladesh possesses the immense possibility to cooperate in developing the economic structure of those countries who are acutely suffering from shortage of work force. With this realization, Greenland Overseas came into existence almost three decades ago in the year of 1988. Convivial in nature but vigorous in accomplishing the job in hand, Bangladesh work force have been applauded by the employers of the countries from all around the world. Believing `People is Resource’, we have placed our entire vigor in mining the best out of the persons and infuse in them a sense of responsibility.

The result is an unmatched database of potential employees with outstanding technical know-how who are simply the best in the market. Filling a vacancy in today’s very competitive job market is not an easy task. Unless you are fully equipped with the appropriate competency, it would certainly be difficult to scout the right candidate aptly exacting your requirements.

Mohammad Abdul Hye Chairman 7 OVERVIEW reenland Overseas is one of the leading Government approved Manpower Agencies with GLicense No. RL-040, in Bangladesh registered under the Ministry of Expatriates Welfare & Overseas Employment which facilitates professionally managed outflow of work force from Bangladesh to abroad. Greenland Overseas is sister concern of Greenland Group, a foremost conglomerate of Bangladesh. Greenland Overseas is a member of Bangladesh Association of International Recruiting Agencies (BAIRA). In spite of numerous recruitment agencies in Bangladesh, Greenland Overseas realized that there was a need for a professionally managed recruitment agency to bridge the gap between opportunities and the opportunity seekers and thus the company came into existence. The company’s overall stance has been to go-all-out for excellence and thus become the principal source of competitive, efficient and reliable Human resource solutions provider. The esteem position, in which Greenland Overseas is held today, bears the testimony to the measure of success that the company has been able to achieve over the years. For Greenland, social responsibility extends well beyond just writing a donation check to a charitable cause. It’s about strengthening the diversity of our communities and creating opportunities for all people to participate in the work force. It’s about focusing on the long-term view and developing solutions that are sustainable. Whether it’s helping an unemployed youth to join the work force, or finding an engineer a job abroad, our reward comes from knowing that we make a real difference – today and in the future. Because of our relationships with both employers and individuals, we are uniquely positioned to determine where current and future skills gaps are, identify people who need help engaging with the work force, and develop solutions that bring these two groups together, mutually benefiting both. In this way, we function as a “bridge” to employment for many who would otherwise be unemployed. Greenland has always considered human resources to be the only appreciating asset to our country. Since it is obligated to source quality human resources to its valued partners, Greenland has developed its own training center where candidates are well groomed and trained for foreign companies. Candidates seeking overseas employment faces problem with jobs, professional environment, language, culture, norms, gestures, postures and many other things. Keeping these in mind Greenland Training Center offers training and induction courses, that does not only help overseas employment seekers but also the employers. Our systems, programs and policies are designed to make the connection to work a viable option for those who need it. Our industry leading skills assessment processes and hiring policies help us ensure that people are not discriminated against. Rather, we focus on people’s abilities – not their disabilities. 8 Opportunities Connecting People with Possibilities Bangladesh may not be blessed with natural resources but is a home of enormous manpower which has a potential to catapult Bangladesh into the leading manpower exporting countries of the world. So far Bangladesh has been known for its semi-skilled and unskilled work force being sent to work abroad. But gradually we are exporting increasing number of Engineers, Doctors, IT specialists, Financial and Accounting Managers each year. This change of talent migration will soon put Bangladesh into world’s leading talent hub. As there has been an economic and development renaissance in Asia, a huge demand of work force has been called upon by the countries involved in this phenomenon. Hence, to meet their demand a potential to use the underutilized labor force of Bangladesh has caught our attention. Greenland Overseas has been in the business of tapping human resource from Bangladesh and placing them in these countries for the last 25 years. Using the acquired experience, Greenland Overseas plants to satisfy the demand of these requirements as well as contribute to the economic growth of the country by reducing unemployment and increasing the foreign exchange of the country. As mentioned, Greenland Overseas has been in this business for the last 29 years, it has acquired the technical know-how of the business and over the years it has made the necessary modifications in the process of identifying potential jobs and placing the required human resource. Greenland Overseas, as it was, will always be open to necessary changes to smoothen the recruitment process, to make the formalities easy for both the employees and employers.
