This is a tough one. I've started working with Scala full time by convincing my boss that this is the way to go. Let's just say without going into too much detail that I've proved my point, because our original stack now looks just miserable in comparison. From what I can see (at least in UK) Scala jobs are more of the high end ones and usually has to do with finances and/or "big data", which is why there aren't many of them. Also, I think Scala if not for everyone which is why it's usually used by someone who's more or less a seasoned professional mastered more than one language.
