Portugal, Hungary, Slovakia, Lithuania, Latvia, Italy, Bulgaria, Estonia, Finland, Greece, Turkey, Georgia, Armenia, Croatia, Moldova, and Azerbaijan – these are the countries that Sii recruiters are currently focusing on when looking for candidates for the International Freelancer project. What were the reasons behind choosing exactly these countries?
