Market notes
Buenos Aires, Córdoba, and Rosario are the main sourcing hubs for sales development reps, drawing from a workforce that powered by one of Latin America's most prolific tech-export economies and a well-educated engineering base. Supply of sales development reps is moderate — mid-level shortlists are quick; senior hires may take a second interview loop. English proficiency is the highest in Latin America on the EF EPI, particularly in Buenos Aires; design-forward and product-minded, with strong western cultural alignment and a bias toward craft.
