One point .... to obtain a 'Work Visa' you must apply outside Brazil and you must have a Brazilian company (or foreign company legally registered in Brazil) sponsor.

Actually you can find a company here. If they want you they will provide the paperwork, then you take it to the nearest consul where you live.
