      There are standard websites for looking for jobs, and even these tend to be filled with fake jobs, like Monster, Dice, LinkedIn, CareerBuilding (is that one still around), ServerFault, etc. These are a good place to start too.

          None of those sites that I listed charge. If you are being charged, it is someone scamming you.

            The person will say Rs.15000 as your salary and your take home will be Rs.10000 and other money is for them for each month.
            This message was got from one recruiter

              Just call the company directly. Stop talking to people trying to take your money.

                What about signing up for services like ODesk where you provide services directly?

                        You could start cheap, do entry level server support. Work your way up with reputation, focus on some specific skills (maybe learn Nginx really well and do a lot of that.) Not going to get you rich, but it might earn you enough to make doing an entry level job not make sense.

                          Having just lived in Panamá there is a lot of opportunity in places like this as the amount of local IT is very small. Don't limit yourself to looking at big markets like the US, Canada and UK because places like Panamá have much easier visa requirements AND paths to citizenship in many cases.
