Phlebotomy.... Wow, kind of limited window on this one.
O.K., Many companies who are hiring health care professionals for Overseas work will probably not be going for such a specific title. Paramedics and Nurses are hired as Company "Medics" and although I have seen people who claimed to be Paramedics that gave me pause as they really didn't seem to know what they were doing and any medical advice was usually "Drink more water", did have a more varied background.
The point is, they were skilled (Eh...) at blood draws, injections and I.V.'s, but only for very specific circumstances. As an old Army Medic, I was doing everything from field work, flight operations, sick call, blood work, assisting in the lab, X-rays, shots, I.V.'s, minor surgery, and sutures. This was because the Tort Laws were less restrictive in combat (little joke there). As a Company Medic, you fall under Civilian Tort Laws and as such are limited within the scope of what you are allowed to do, but Companies still look for those trained in multiple tasks to include Chemical Warfare and Mass Triage. When Companies do mass hiring, they will Contract from a local labor pool to have nurses and Phlebotomists do the Physical exams and Blood draws, but it's hardly a full time position.
I even searched 4 of my fall back sites and had ZERO hits.... Maybe you should try a different search title.
Sorry I couldn't be more help.
Good luck

Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary. - Steve Jobs
