HR Glossary
What is International HR?
The branch of HR focused on managing employees who work across national borders, including expatriates, international assignees, and cross-border remote hires.
Why it matters in hiring
International HR comes up whenever teams compare candidates, set policy or report on people data. Getting the definition right keeps decisions consistent, which is the same reason springhire scores every applicant against the same criteria rather than on impression.
