As an HR personnel you would probably increase the their pay because they are making a "sacrifice" .

2) Another factor that would come into play is the language aspect, we have to make sure the person speaks and understands the language, it would just make things easier and a better transition for them.

3) Make sure they qualify for the job, theres no point in taking some one out of their element if they are not qualified.
