US-based recruiter here! Experience outside of the US definitely counts as experience. The main thing we look for is that the skills and accomplishments are transferrable to the company we're recruiting for. Hiring managers SOMETIMES expect a 100% match, but I would say that a majority don't and, if they're having trouble finding candidates, then they'll sometimes start to lower their expectations. I would say that even if you meet only 60% of the requirements, to still apply because you never know what could happen. Recruiters also sometimes do due diligence on you, but to be honest, it's not super often and I'll only do it if I have a particularly picky hiring manager who does want the 100% match. But if you have your linkedin profile and github link in your resume, they'll more likely look at it (which is a good thing).

Thank you for your input. Can you share most common red flags which recruiters finds when looking at a resume.
