anyone know any *legit* overseas job placement services?
I wouldn't mind a stint in Russia, Hungary, Czech Republic, Venezuela or the Middle East... But everything I google turns out to be a spam-bot or some other stupid thing that has bugger-all to do with being an overseas placement agency. I don't care what the job is as long as it pays a decent wage.

BTW, I have Canadian and UK/EEC citizenship, if that makes a difference.

1. Why bother?
Corporations offshore because of lower wages.

Never mind if those countries are intent on taking in Americans,

:(

3. Who's talking financial profit?!

I'm talking "living wage" (and not living in some termite infested shack with bacteria-laden water, not knowing the next time I'd get to eat even a crumb of bread).

4. I think you misunderstand.
I can see where one might infer that I hope to become a Bangladeshi dung-merchant with a distended large intestine, but what I really had in mind is working in another region somewhat comparable to our own in relative economic and social prosperity, or at least headed in that direction.

I would also do some of that crazy, high-paying dangerous stuff, like oil-capping in Iraq, or selling Salman Rushdie books in Tehran.
