E-145 and -190 captains at $15K/month, then upgrade to A-320 in one year.
A-320 captains, at the payrates above, then upgrade to the A-330 in one year.
Lots of jobs in the Middle East, India, Vietnam, Korea, Japan.
Good luck!

Anyone who is flying a 777, 737 or 320 either FO or CA, should be well set here in USA & doesn't really need to look outside except if their airline is shaky, under BK or some reason like that.....
Those guys flying for regionals, specially the ones which can fold & BK any minute, really should a hard look at what they want to do if their company folds.
CRJ200 CA jobs, looks like a chinese airline is pretty desperate & few Indian airlines are REALLLLLLY desperate ATR72 & Q400 captains, these all seems like a decent gig for any CA flying for any regional which has a questionable future. They are a lot better than staring at Year 1 FO at another regional....
In ASIA, the desperation in the arilines recruiting dept's has been on the rise & is going to increase in the next 12-24 months as lot of the expat's (foriegn Pilots) flying there are in the 63-65 yrs age bracket and as a result, the T&C's or at least the pay, seem to be getting better.....
I have said this time & again, there is & there will be
NO SHORTAGE for a fresh CPL but a experienced CA is in great demand, if not in USA, then at least other parts of the world....
The term
"Pilot shortage" should be referred to & ineterpretted as
"EXPERIENCED CAPTAIN SHORTAGE..."
