I would say, because of the bias towards hiring native speakers, your student should get hired first, preferably by an International House School, and then undergo the TESOL/CELTA training as part of her employment. However, it is unlikely that any school will sign a contract for less than a year of employment, so that depends on your student's preferences. She/he can also check out the School for International Training in Brattleboro, VT (I think it's www.sit.edu but I'm not sure) -- they provide TESOL courses sometimes, but may not enroll someone who is not a working teacher.
Another option that's always out there is a teaching Fulbright...
Best,
