3% Acceptance Rate, We are selective

The career you've been building deserves the right bridge.

Puente places top LatAm professionals with growing US companies. We are not a marketplace. We are a selective placement network, and most people who apply do not make it through.

Not for everyone

We don't accept
everyone. By design.

Most staffing agencies will take anyone. We will not. Our clients, growing US companies, need people who can communicate, lead, and deliver at the highest level. That means we have to be selective.

  • Exceptional EnglishYou communicate clearly, confidently, and professionally in written and spoken English. Not "functional", excellent.
  • Proven professional track record2+ years of relevant experience in your field. Not self-taught tutorials, real work, real results.
  • Driven by ownership and excellenceYou will own projects end to end, join strategy meetings, and hold yourself to a high standard of delivery. This is not task work. This is real ownership.
From the network

What Puente professionals say.

These are the people who made it through.

Who We Look For

Built for self-starters.
Not BPO seats.

We do not place people who want to sit in a call center and wait for instructions. We find professionals who take ownership, solve problems independently, and bring the same drive they would to their own business.

01
Reliable Setup
Strong internet connection, a working computer with camera and audio. You will be on video calls, presenting work, and collaborating in real time.
02
High Agency
You take initiative without being asked. You spot problems and fix them. You do not wait for someone to tell you what to do next.
03
English Fluency
Not functional. Excellent. You write clearly, speak confidently, and can hold your own in any meeting with a US team.

Common Questions

How to get a US job from Latin America.

Everything you need to know about remote work with US companies from LatAm.

How can I get a US job while living in Mexico, Colombia, Brazil, or another Latin American country?

Apply to Puente Talent Partners. We place top LatAm professionals with growing US companies as full remote team members — not contractors, not vendors. Our 6-step vetting process (application + video, phone screen, recruiter interview, client interview, background check, AI certification) ensures you are matched with the right company. You work from home and receive USD salary.

Do I need to relocate to the US to work for a US company?

No. All Puente placements are 100% remote. You work from your home country — Mexico, Colombia, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Peru, or any of the 14 LatAm countries we recruit from — and are paid in USD every month.

What salary can I expect working remotely for a US company from Latin America?

Puente pays top-of-market LatAm rates in USD. For most professionals, this is 2–4x higher than equivalent local salaries. We do not publish specific ranges because they vary by role, country, and experience level — but compensation is competitive with regional benchmarks.

What countries does Puente recruit from?

We recruit from 14 Latin American countries: Mexico, Colombia, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Peru, Venezuela, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Dominican Republic, Uruguay, Panama, Honduras, and Guatemala.

What kinds of roles are available through Puente?

We place professionals across operations, customer service, customer success, sales, project management, marketing, accounting, bookkeeping, estimating, and dispatch. These are real team roles with ownership and career growth — not BPO seat-filling.

How long does the application process take?

The 6-step process typically takes 2–6 weeks from application to placement, depending on role availability and match speed.

What is the AI certification Puente provides?

Before placement, every Puente professional completes an AI tools certification relevant to their role. It is included at no cost and is designed to make you measurably more productive than professionals without this training. Many of our clients cite AI fluency as the top reason they return to Puente.
