Bridge alleviates the immigration-related administrative tasks from Armanino’s HR director

Armanino

Challenge

Armanino engaged with multiple immigration providers prior to partnering with Bridge. During those engagements the firm struggled to find a provider that combined both deep legal expertise and efficient, organized processes.

Working with a boutique traditional immigration firm, the HR team experienced delayed start dates and overwhelmingly cumbersome processes. However, after switching to a technology-enabled provider prior to Bridge, service levels suffered and legal advice was inconsistent.

Seeking to streamline the immigration process while still maintaining a high-touch, service-oriented immigration provider, Bridge’s approach aligned with Armanino’s immigration goals.

Approach

Transitioned all immigration-related activity to single technology, providing real-time transparency and tracking of key data and dates across Armanino’s immigration program

Delegated tasks in each immigration case with customized permissions for stakeholders across the company

Worked directly with designated stakeholders and international employees to collect documentation and provide step-by-step case updates

Armanino

“Bridge has made immigration seamless for us. They provide high touch support, guiding and educating HR team members with varying levels of experience with the immigration process. They are a true partner.”
