by: Doc

1st; You'll need a sellable skill, ie; Driver, Medic, Construction, Human Relations, Fireman, etc.
2nd; You'll need a Passport.
3rd; You'll need a background check done (Usually by the hiring company)which has no criminal record, DUI, back child support, etc.
4th: You'll need to take a physical (Usually done by the hiring company) No Diabetes, no heart stints, no obesity, mental issues, medications which must be taken regularly (High blood pressure) etc..
5th; You must not quit your current job while waiting to be hired. Sounds like I'm joking but many people are so sure they will be hired right away, they quit their job, run out and buy mosquito nets, bug spray, combat boots, sun screen,.. Blah, blah,. and sit back with a soft drink by the phone and let the bills pile up.
If you are in debt, you may actually be denied hiring because of these debts.
Depending on your abilities, certain companies in the M.E. will have better prospects of getting a job. Air and Space, Logistics, Security, many companies focus on specific skill sets. What skills you demonstrate should direct you to the company that will take you on.

Quote

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
