The first question is going to be, "Do you have a Green Card?" Without one there will be no opportunities.
I can think of three small cargo operators that might have a total of 15 727s flying plus a couple of corporate planes. Not much demand because most of those FEs will stay in the seat until they die.

Hi Markerinbound
We'll, I think to obtain a green card I must be entitled for a job, am I right ?
This is what I found on the net ...
For sure FE will die in their seat ..... That s what I am willing to do so ! 😲 But first I have to find a seat ! According to my research it seems AStar bankrupt ... Right ?
What a mess , I am not really exited to go to Middle East , but I am afraid I will have to .....

Yes, just as I can not get a job in an EU country without some connections, the same would apply to you looking for work in the US.
Yes, Astar is shutdown. Evergreen will die by the end of the year. Connie may still have a couple Classics flying but he has FEs.
Bon courage.

Thank you, I'm doing good over here. It is my understanding that to work in an EU country I would have to be an EU national or Turkish, Swiss or Norwegian. Is this not correct? Plus my German language skill is limited to ordering beer.

You don't have to necessarily be a European citizen to work as a pilot in Europe, but many companies make this a requirements. Many companies, but not all have this requirement, and there are ex-pats flying in Europe.
My understanding is that it is relatively easy to convert a JAA to FAA. One test and a checkride if you are current. To do FAA to JAA you have to take all the tests which I understand is a big deal.
