ATLANTA, February 12, 2015 – Rural Sourcing, the pioneer and an industry leader in the fast growing trend of low cost domestic sourcing will be featured in an upcoming BBC World News Special airing initially February 13th at 3:30 pm eastern time and then again February 14th, 15th and 16th during the six other segments for Our World.
Natalia Antelava, award winning journalist, examines the trend of US based companies choosing to invest in America as opposed to sending the work offshore. From Walmart to Apple, from Connecticut to California, many companies across the United States say they are bringing jobs back from overseas. As salaries and other costs of doing business continue to rise in countries such as China and India, Natalia travels across the U.S, and to India, to investigate whether the tide is turning on one of the biggest trends in globalization – the outsourcing of work from the rich to the developing world.
“We are excited to be recognized as one of the leaders in creating US based technology jobs here in America,” said Monty P. Hamilton, CEO of Rural Sourcing. “We believe that our model of delivering software programming and testing in smaller US based cities is a better answer for our clients than shipping the work offshore to higher risk alternatives.”
“As client’s demand for cloud-based and mobile solutions continues to grow we are continuing to see our business expand” said Ingrid Miller, V.P. of Client Service of Rural Sourcing. “The rapid revenue and employee growth in our business is a testament to both the underserved market needs for an affordable, reliable onshore solution and the value created by all of our talented staff in the U.S.”
