Personally, I think it would be really helpful if institutions who are only
interested in hiring US residents state this in the job posting.  Although I
am Canadian, I am completely open to moving to the US (or even another
country) for a job opportunity but have found it frustrating when job
postings don't specify whether they are willing to consider international
applicants or are only interested in US residents.  I have even attempted to
contact various institutions regarding their job postings and have received
the response "only if the applicant is legally entitled to work in the US."
 This is not a helpful response as accepting a job offer in the US would
require that my potential employer sponsor my greencard application.  Simply
stating this information would save a lot of wasted job applications.
