Open a lecture, take the tool, use it in your next cross-border search.

Why hiring abroad fails

A recruiter who is strong at home posts the same job ad in another country and gets no answers. The job board everyone uses there is a different one. The message sounds translated. The interview question that is normal at home is rude there, and the offer breaks a local rule nobody knew about. International hiring is the same craft with different local settings, and you need to know them before you start.

What changes after this course

You know how hiring differs by region and where candidates look for work there. You search across countries with X-ray queries. You understand how culture changes communication with a candidate. You know the vocabulary of global HR: assignments, relocation, compensation approaches, compliance. And you write and speak about all of it in professional English.

What is inside: 379 tools, counted lecture by lecture

You do not have to take this number on trust. Open any lecture and read its description: every tool inside is listed there by name.

What this course is not

It is not legal advice on visas or employment law in a particular country. The regional lectures show how hiring works and where to look. For a specific country, check the current local rules.

Who is teaching

I am Mike, the #1 HR instructor on Udemy, with 1,800,000+ course enrollments from 170,000 students, and the author of about 200 books on Amazon. I built the people system at Preply as it became a unicorn and worked at Wargaming, iDeals and Alfa-Bank across 20 years in HR. I hold PHRi, SHRM-CP and HCI sHRBP certifications and represent HRCI in Eastern Europe.

I learned the local settings the hard way. At Preply we looked for an assistant in Korea. It turned out you cannot post a vacancy there without a registration that shows you are a company and not just a user. Colleagues also told me that in Korea it is quite standard to ask a candidate how much they can drink. At iDeals we asked our American colleagues to rewrite our job ads and messages, because a text written by a non-native speaker looks unnatural to an American. Each country had something like this, and nobody tells you in advance.
