I imagine they will send the request to the foreign airline, but of course they are probably not subject to US law on that, so they don't have to respond.
A hiring company is not required (to my knowledge) to wait until they get responses to all PRIA requests before they hire you. I think it would up to the hiring company as to how comfortable they are with not having that info.

But I am not certain that airlines even get any checkride failure info from the FAA. I had heard that all they get was violations and rating/cert info.
Lori?

I have a question regarding a DUI and interviewing at a place like Delta or Southwest, if I ever would be so fortunate as to get a call for an interview from one of these places. Yes, I know, a snowball's chance at best... Anyways, my question is this. I received a DUI, which I duly reported to the FAA. I had spoken to a union lawyer, and he naturally made a point of telling me to do this, above anything else. I did not report the DUI to my current company though. I was not necessarily trying to hide it from them, just didn't think I had to. I know I would be asked about the circumstance of my DUI by a prospective employer, which I have no problem talking about and I have fully disclosed it on my applications, but would my prospective employer contact my current company and inquire about this? I know what is included in PRIA documents, but I don't know if they would take the extra step of asking about something like a DUI and whether I had reported it to them or not. Just curious, thanks for the answers in advance.

I have a copy of the act and an AC which talks about it in laymen terms on my website: Articles for the Professional Airline Pilot

If you do another PRIA request for another potential employer at a later date there is no guarantee that it won't be processed properly next time. Unless the records in question are somehow missing from your file...
But I think some disciplinary actions are exempt from PRIA, such as non-flight operations stuff.
