However, this screening strategy needs to be implemented carefully to ensure that it is fair, legal, and ethical. ## Reasonable screening method 1. **Evaluation by skills and qualifications**: First evaluate all candidates based on the skills and qualifications required by the position 2. **Consider remote work mode**: If the position allows remote work, the scope of recruitment can be expanded to different regions 3. **Establish a regionalized salary structure**: Formulate a reasonable salary range according to the market conditions in different regions 4. **Transparent salary policy**: Clearly communicate salary strategies based on regional differences ##Risks to be avoided - Avoid any screening methods that may constitute discrimination -Don't screen candidates just by nationality or place of origin -Ensure that salary decisions are still fair and competitive in the market -Pay attention to compliance with relevant laws and regulations, especially regulations on employment equality ## Balance suggestion While pursuing cost-effectiveness, factors such as talent quality, cultural fit, and long-term retention should also be considered, rather than just focusing on short-term salary costs.
