Trying to hire or recruit from afar can be a headache.

Whether you're shipping one of your own off for a post abroad or recruiting overseas, issues lurk.

George Snider, president of private executive search firm Sanford Rose Associates in Akron, Ohio, suggests some guidelines to use when hiring and placing people in other countries.

Address pay issues early. For example, the question of whether to pay in American dollars or local currency can pose a roadblock.

Do the same with benefits. The U.S. health care system differs greatly from others.
