I am an IMG and I have a green card, how can I get US experience, observership, or anything that can boost my credentials?
Thanks!

Here r some of the links where u can find a list of the hospitals which offer observerships:

http://www.usmletomd.com/usce/2006/12/alabama-al.html
Just send e.mails to the coordinators of the specialties u r interested in,and wait for their response.U can also call them.The second link mentioned above lists the USCE by State.
Good Luck!

I want to apply to FM or IM , so what observership should I look for IM or FM ?
Thanks again.

It is simple.If u wanna go into an FM residency then it will be better for u to do an observership in FM and the same analogy applies for IM.This will demonstrate yur level of interest and dedication to the said specialty.
Good Luck!
