Be realistic about what you'll make (about 40-50% of US salary) and tailor your resume for the region you're applying. Have a cover letter explaining your reasoning for wanting to relocate overseas. If the government has a list of companies approved to issue visas, target these companies when reviewing posts. If you work for a global company now consider internal relocation as it will by far be the easiest option. Be aware it's a huge uphill battle since you're not already geographically located in the region.
