Although somewhat dated, Miller's guide is a good source of information regarding the legal, practical, and logistical considerations of international travel. Job hunting is not specifically addressed. Both the writing style and the format are understandable, concise and well-organized. Sample chapter titles: "Medical Problems," "Your Rights After Arrest," and "U.S. Customs." Among the ten appendices is one on "Legal Penalties for Possession of Small Amounts of Marijuana for Personal Use." Highly recommended.
