I suppose I shouldn't say "impossible" but I'd certainly go with "very, very, very unlikely".  In order to work in another country, you have to be able to do something that someone who is already there either cannot or will not do.  Unless you have an incredibly unique skill set, you have to assume that in the US there are hundreds of qualified applicants for every position.  If they wanted a Secretary that speaks Swedish fluently and has spent time in Khazastan and is especially versed in the Samna software system and you could meet all those requirements, then maybe.  Otherwise, no.  Also, in the US the basic requirement for even an entry-level receptionist or administrative assistant is at least a BA or BS degree.  If you have a Masters degree and some sort of specialty, then maybe there's a small chance, but otherwise, no, there are tons of people here with graduate degrees in jobs at Starbucks trying to get hired on as admin assistants.
