Capitalizing On The Opportunities For Jobs In The Caribbean

By Marissa Velazquez


The Caribbean is a wonderful place to retire or go on a vacation. At least, that is what most people around the world think. They focus on the fact that the region is famous for its tropical climate and fun loving people and pay little attention to the fact that there are many available jobs in the Caribbean.

One of the factors that accounts for the availability of these jobs is migration. The world has swiftly converted itself into a global village and more and more people are looking beyond the shores of their native land for opportunities. The region has, as a result, lost many of its bright and talented residents and needs outsiders to occupy posts that are left vacant.

One of the things that you must consider when embarking on a career in this region is legal matters. As you would expect, the islands have rules that govern foreigners working on their soil. This includes the need for approvals through work permits along with taxation laws. Make sure that you are fully familiar with these regulations before committing to or starting the job.

Of course, you will also want to work out living arrangements for your period of employment, be it temporary or permanent. It goes without saying that the high end resorts that are so appealing to tourists would not work for someone who is moving into the area for work. Some fortunate professional migrants to the region are given free accommodations as a part of their employment package. Maybe this is something you could negotiate for while being interviewed for the job.

One of the fields for which the region seeks workers is that of education. Many of the educators of the region are recruited by institutions in other more developed countries. Those who tend to leave are the ones who are trained in specialist areas such as the teaching of English Language, Mathematics and the sciences. As a result, teachers whoa re trained to instruct in these areas will be able to find vacancies on these islands. It is important to note though, that most institutions require at leas a bachelor's degree in the area of specialization for all candidates.

The field of medicine also offers many opportunities for those who wish to work on these islands. Like educators, the region's nurses often leave the islands to take up jobs in other countries. This is why the health care facilities on the islands often recruit nurses from other countries. Doctors, and especially, specialists and surgeons are also in high demand on the islands.

Many large companies move beyond their shores and end up needing executive leaders in to occupy posts all over the world. One such area is the Caribbean. Because tourism is such a big business in this region, there is always a demand for persons to work in this industry. Lots of international resort chains have sunk roots in the islands and are constantly seeking experienced and qualified individuals to help manage the resorts.

If you need a break from your current environment or are having trouble finding employment opportunities where you live, maybe it is time to look elsewhere.There is really no reason why you should hesitate to search among the many available jobs in the Caribbean to find the one that fits you best. These jobs allow people from all over the world to live and work in perpetual vacation style.
