From time to time, we have been asked to let our members know of
available paid positions. Because the News

action, we have been unable to help in the past. The speed and
simplicity of the Internet now permits a change in this practice.
We post all such opportunities on this page, and remove them promptly
when we are notified that the position is no longer open or a year
after the original posting.
THESE LISTINGS ARE PUBLISHED AS A SERVICE TO OUR MEMBERS.
There is NO FEE for employers or applicants.

ABOUT
FOREIGN EMPLOYMENT
When
contemplating overseas employment, take the time to research the offer
carefully. Make certain of the financial
condition of your prospective employer.
PERSONAL
SAFETY. The U. S. Department of

Emergencies Abroad, Passports, Visas and more. Links
are provided to the home pages of US Embassies and consulates
