Brazil wants more foreign professionals
I am sure the wages are very low compared to US, JP or EU. And I mean for professionals. How much does an engineer earn in BR? Anyone knows?
Problem is that their work laws and bureaucracy doesn't agree with their actual need.
golden age for the exploration and exploitation of our last resources. i guess most drilling and mining companies have international career sites. personal connections would be more of use of course

Being a brazilian myself I can tell the skilled worker shortage is absolutely true, easy to notice when dealing with many services - say, air lines, hotels, restaurants... from the clerk to the manager, nobody seems to have been trained to do what he is doing or to have overcome someone else to get that position. I wonder how that may go in specialised fields like energy, or logistics.
The country is certainly going to disappoint you regarding transit, livability of the cities, architecture, safety, etc. Asphalt is crap. Public transport sucks. Most services suck, actually. Rents are absurdly high. Broad band is unreliable. It is obviously not the place to build a life and raise your kids. But trying to put myself in the foreigner's position, it can be an awesome country to spend some of your youth making good money and having lots of fun, including girls and nightlife. People are welcoming and provided you're interested in fun, not professional improvement, intelectual pleasing or whatever, it's damn easy to build a social circle.
Bear in mind that our currency, the real, is worth half a dollar and specialists say it's 15% overvalued. Changes in economic scenario may damage your income/outcome equation after you come.
