FAA CPL training in the USA then flying in Brazil

How difficult is it to gain employment in Brazil after being trained in the USA?
validation necessary/ If so how many hours extra?
Conversion required? how difficult as in how many written exams and flight exams have to be taken?
Job opportunities for ex-pat pilots in Brazil?
Job opportunities for Brazilian nationals?

At the moment, unless things have changed since I last checked, expats canīt fly commercially for Brazilian carriers. Some Brazilian senators were trying to introduce a bill to allow foreign pilots to fly, but so far it hasnīt gone anywhere. I donīt know about converting.

this was posted in the rotorheads section awhile back but some of the info still pertains, have a look

Thanks Zonda,
I don't need a job, I have one.
The school I work for is considering taking on Brazilian students.
As a Brazilian National with a US (FAA) CPl ME IR, what do I need to do to convert/translate/validate in order to fly Commercially in Brazil?
We need this info in order to put a customized package together that would actually make sense for a Brazilain student.

Regards,
