So you want a job in the Caribbean, but do you know which island you would like to work on? Before taking the plunge it would be prudent to have an idea where you would like to live and work
Any position in the Caribbean will be met with a beautiful setting and a new, wonderful life. However, each island has a different cost of living and atmosphere, which may influence which one you choose. It may also influence where the jobs that you want are located, regardless of where you want to live.
The better known islands such as Bermuda and the Cayman Islands are well known enough that it is very easy to get additional info about them. These islands have more organised immigration and they are generally easier to relocate to. These islands offer the same opportunities and amenities as those available in the US.
Other Caribbean islands, especially those that are not as wealthy, have a different cost of living. They also have a different style of living, and it is important to match the way of the island to your expectations so that you have the best relocation experience possible.
Often people are so focussed on the Caribbean job that they completely forget about their choice of islands. There are so many islands to choose from, they all have pros and cons. Each island has a different lifestyle and different emplyent opportunities. Islands vary considerably in size, utilities and amenities. Some islands are very much like living in the States. Other islands are much smaller and if you are not prepared they could be a cultural shock that will not be enjoyed by everybody.
If possible, you should take a trip to the Caribbean, before accepting a job. By doing so, you will be able to get a true sense of the islands and which one you prefer. Depending on the companies to which you interview, you may be able to accomplish this through an interview on the island.
The more time that you have to look the more you will be able to get done when researching possible employment opportunities in the Caribbean. Beware though, the competition is understandably fierce and you should be prepared for a long wait!
Consider this time the perfect opportunity to do your research, secure all of your belongings for when you are ready to make the move, and complete any lists and tasks concerning your job search and your transfer.
