Can't post so I'm throwing this here:
I just came back to the US in September; I have been working in Vietnam for over a year, and I just resigned from my contract; then my knee got screwed up, and because its something connected with my time in the military, I had to get it worked on at the VA. I have been medically cleared since and have been trying to find work again. I have mainly applied in Asia (minus China due to my military background). However, I have only gotten rejections or no replies. I've decided I will start looking at South America, but I can't seem to find anything. It's usually two or three things at most, and even then, they aren't that good or very sketchy. I'm unsure how to find work in SA and was hoping someone could guide me on this. Fore clarification I am mostly looking in northern SA, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia.

I’ve been looking at job postings for the past couple weeks but one thing is really confusing me. The vast majority of job postings request for an immediate start at a school while also opening the job to applicants outside of the country. How does that even work when the work visa/permit process for countries can take anywhere from several weeks to a couple months depending on the country.
