Answer
It is very difficult, if not impossible, to get a job in Brazil, despite your qualifications. And even more difficult to get a work visa to work legally, since there are so many well-trained, but under- or unemployed Brazilians competing for the relatively poor salaries. Most recruiters are reported to be ineffective, whereas personal connections are most important in Brazil in getting anything done. Your best hope might be to contact an Indian company with an office somewhere in Brazil and try to get a job that way.

Expertise

Drawing on my personal travel experience in Brazil (more than a decade's worth), as well as time spent living in Brazil (especially Salvador, Bahia) and knowledge of the Brazilian community in the U.S., I can help with most questions concerning travel, specific destinations, paperwork for moving, marriage or business, and more. I enjoy helping people get the most from their stay in Brazil. I'd be happy to hear from you.

Experience

I have spent considerable time in Brazil, living and travelling, over more than a decade. I have travelled widely throughout much of Brazil, sometimes solo and sometimes with Brazilian friends and relatives, and am familiar with many destinations. I have done translation and interpretation, and also have taught ESL.

Publications
I write for a number of travel forums, blogs and publications concerning Brazil.
