You Can Get A Job In The Cayman Islands Too!

I got a job in the Cayman Islands!!

This has been a dream of mine since I can remember. Leaving cold and icy Edmonton Alberta.

I had applied to an offshore recruitment agency two years out of university. I heard nothing from them until a year and a half ago (I have been out of University for 6 years now). Luckily for me a new guy took over the IT department of the agency and he wanted to know if I was still interested. I definitely was!

I had two interviews for jobs in Bermuda but I was not a right fit for either. Finally at the beginning of this year I interviewed with a company in the Cayman Islands. After a phone interview and a skype interview I got the job!

I am three weeks away from my departure date and have a ton of emotions going through me. Excitement, fear, exhaustion...

So what am I leaving behind?

Shoveling snow! Worst snow fall ever.

  1. Hello!
    Stumbled across your blog while doing research about moving to the Cayman Islands. I can't begin to tell you how deceivingly informative your blog was to read. It's nice to get an idea a view of what life would be like on the islands through the eyes of a fellow Canadian. I am hoping to become employed there within the next year but just don't have a clue where to begin.

  2. Thanks! If have the right qualifications then getting a job here is not that hard. I suggest you contact http://www.cmlor.com/location/cayman-jobs.html.

    If you are looking for service industry jobs I think your best bet is to just come down and apply here.
