Short answer:
There are jobs at the moment for pilots with 1500 hours. They are not good. Or decent, by most standards. You will need to pass an FAA ATP exam and checkride. If you don't already have the right to work in the U.S., employment is practically a non-starter at this juncture.
As an American about your age with more flight time with you in the process of punching out for expat work, I suggest looking elsewhere or staying put.
