Our story

We started with 60 dollars, three laptops and the urge to build.

That was in Mérida, Venezuela, in September 2016. Ten years later we are a Simera company, we have closed more than 2,000 hires and we have 210 professionals working across 18 countries. In between there was a pandemic, a market crash that cut us in half, and the decision to rebuild the whole thing.

The timeline

Ten years, told properly.

Including the year we almost didn't get to tell.

  1. 1 September 2016

    Day one

    Mérida, Venezuela. Three laptops, sixty dollars in the account and an idea that sounded odd back then: that a company in the United States could hire a Latin American professional without either of them moving country.

    • 60 USD
    • 3 laptops
    • The urge to build
  2. 2016 — 2019

    Growing where nobody was looking

    While the market was still arguing about whether remote work was a serious thing, we were already doing it. Interfell grew out of Mérida and opened its first operating offices abroad.

    • Growth in Mérida
    • Operations in Spain
    • Operations in Colombia
  3. 2020

    The world moved to where we already were

    The pandemic made obvious what we had spent four years explaining on every call. That year we ran the first edition of Remote Fest and operations grew like never before.

    • Covid-19
    • 1st Remote Fest
    • Operations growth
  4. 2021 — 2022

    The wave

    Accelerated post-pandemic growth. We reached more than 60 team members across Latin America and ran the second edition of Remote Fest. Everyone was hiring remotely; we already knew how.

    • 60+ team members across LATAM
    • 2nd Remote Fest
  5. 2023

    The year it nearly cost us the company

    The global market correction froze tech hiring overnight. We cut the team by more than half and restructured all of Interfell. It is the part almost nobody puts on their «about us» page.

    What we learned there shapes everything we did after: growing fast and growing well are not the same thing.
  6. 2024 — 2025

    Rebuilding with method

    We came back smaller and far more organised. Settled operations, processes that do not depend on who happens to be around that day and, above all, the Smart Hiring plans: clear pricing and a process you can explain end to end in one call.

    • More robust processes
    • Smart Hiring podcast
    • Smart Hiring guide
    • Smart Hiring plans
  7. September 2025

    Interfell + Simera

    We joined Simera. Interfell became part of the group and the combined network reached 2.5 million profiles. Same team, a lot more reach behind it.

  8. 2025 — 2026

    What we are building now

    Our own Operations Hub, a talent finder that understands natural language, and the Remote Work Academy, where we teach people how to land a remote job from the hiring side of the table.

    • In-house Operations Hub
    • Natural language talent search
    • Remote Work Academy
    • 210 active professionals active in 18 countries
    • 247 contracts won this year

How we work

What these ten years left us with.

Not values on a wall. The six things we changed because not doing them cost us dearly.

Saying it on the first call

If the service you are asking for is not the one that fits, we say so right there. We would rather lose a sale than put you through a process that does not solve your problem.

Vetting before presenting

Nobody reaches your desk before we have confirmed their experience, their English level and that they accept the terms. It is the part that saves you the most time.

Looking after both sides

The professional is not a resource: they are someone with a career. Getting paid on time and working under clear terms is part of the service, not an extra.

Actually knowing LATAM

We do not run the region from a distance. We know how hiring works, what salaries look like and what holds up in each country because we were born here and we are still here.

Staying after the signature

Hiring does not end when someone signs. We support the onboarding and stay around if something drifts.

Using technology where it helps

The Hub, the natural language talent search and the SPK exist to cut what adds nothing. The interviews and the decision stay with people.

Want to talk about what you need?

Whether you have an open role, a team to manage, or you just want to know if we are the right partner, that is what the first call is for.

A 20-minute first call, free and with no commitment.
