Question
Good Day,

Are Brazilian companies eager to employ American citizens? I know a work visa can be hard to get sometimes but I am very interested in working in Brazil. Any information you can give will be helpful. Thanks

Answer
Hello Frankie,

Some Brazilian companies (I don't have specific names) offer jobs for foreigner when they cannot find the skill set in the country. You can search the following web sites for current job opportunities (some are in Portuguese):

http://www.anyworkanywhere.com/jcg_br.html
http://www.catho.com.br
http://www.manager.com.br
http://www.peopleconsulting.com.br
http://www.latpro.com/

You can also contact expatriated organizations in Brazil:
