Success case: Nestlé
Nestlé is one of the many international companies established in Catalonia that have benefited from the international mobility service. Francisco Mejías, manager of the Talent, Recruitment & Training at Nestlé Spain, explains how every year, a great number of people move from their home countries to join Nestlé in Spain, especially in their Global IT Hub in Barcelona.
"The COVID-19 pandemic greatly impacted all of society, and in particular it brought to a halt all immigration procedures with the public institutions", Mejías says. "As such, we had tenths of employees who, along with their families, were unable to finalize their migratory process."
According to Nestlé's manager,"Through their customized service, Catalonia Trade & Investment was extremely helpful by accompanying the company in all its international mobility and immigration procedures, being in constant contact with public bodies, and monitoring and pushing the resolution of their requests".
