Thanks so much in advance.My husband will be a student of St.Matthew U. for 18 months in Seven Mile Beach.My husband will be a student of St.Matthew U. for 18 months in Seven Mile Beach.Dear Cayman_tac,Thanks for your reply, I went there in March this year and got the applications paper from all hotels around 7 miles beach to fill in, I sent it back to them via DHL but no reply at all. Is it possible that no one work in the hotel now cos still in hurricane season? I just want to try my best before we go there, if I can get the job before it would be GREAT! Are you work there now? Thanks, Fon

Answer#1: I'm sorry but I don't know of an EASY way to get a job here unless you are already here. You could come in on a tourist visa (30 days max. & you are prohibited from working) but while you are here you can look in the papers for jobs and bring your resume personally. Also, there are MANY hospitality administration jobs available in the Seven Mile Beach area. Just ask around.All you would have to do is leave the country before your 30 days expire and fly back in to get another.One big drawback is that once your work permit application is put in with Immigration, you have to be out of the country until it is approved. ( usually around 3 weeks )I hope this helps.Good luck!
