I'm not sure in the case of your friend. What I do know is if you want to hire someone from another country, it's a giant pain in the ass and nearly impossible unless you're a corporation with endless resources. We've tried to hire people from other countries on multiple occasions but the work visa situation always kills it. It takes months, costs a bunch of money, and it is LITERALLY randomized (a lottery) unless you can prove to some jackass that the person you're hiring is uniquely and extraordinarily talented and you can't find someone like them in the US. We're a 2D animation studio so that process is trying to prove something relatively subjective to someone who has no idea what they're looking at. Sigh...
