**Missed payroll deadlines** due to manual processes  

**Compliance disasters** from misclassified workers  

**HR teams drowning in paperwork**  

Enter **Deel**—the **world’s first end-to-end platform** that handles **hiring, onboarding, compliance, and payroll** in one unified system.

## **Stage 1: Hiring—Finding the Best Talent, Anywhere**  

### **The Problem: Slow, Fragmented Hiring Processes**  

Most companies struggle with:

- **Onboarding delays** (3 weeks to get a developer started)  

### **How Deel Solves It**

**Case Study: Fintech Startup Cuts Hiring Time by 80%**

**Ensured full compliance in 8 countries**  

## **Stage 2: Onboarding—From Paperwork to Productivity**

**50 contractors onboarded in 2 days**  

**Zero missed forms** (automated tracking)  

## **Stage 3: Compliance—Avoiding Costly Mistakes**  

### **The Problem: The $1M+ Misclassification Risk**  

Misclassifying an employee as a contractor can trigger:  

- **IRS audits** (U.S.)

### **How Deel Solves It**
