Re: Getting a job in Barbados
Hi Belinda,
I'm sure you will do fine - if you're interviewing with Stephanie at Virgo - don't worry - she speaks fluent German
.
We are good friends and used to work together in the tourism industry so let me know how it goes. Ich druecke Dir die Daumen!
Such a shame we will miss each other - but let's stay in touch, I go out there whenever I can so am sure we will have the opportunity to get together at the Carib ;-) at a later stage ;-)

Gosh - it is definitely a small world! I can't believe this - I found this site completely by chance and recognised your name in one of the replies to Belinda. Well, I'm coming out to Barbados tomorrow for a short break so will maybe see you there. This is really unbelievable! Eva is still in touch with me and keeps inviting me to Bilbao but I always seem to get to Barbados but not to Spain ;-)

Judging from the quality of what you write here in these posts, you do not need to worry about your English as it is (gramatically) better than many Bajans. Looking forward to meeting you on your upcoming trip and good luck with your interviews.

PS Heidi, I am sure that I will run into at the Carib you during your trip

Re: Getting a job in Barbados
Good mornin´
Oh just for a week..hmm.. so you will leave on 29th?? I will be there from July 7th til 28th with a one week interruption (trip to The Grenadines). How sad that you won´t there while I will be....but I hope we will be able to go for a drink later on???
Well I will have appointments with 4 of the (so said) most renowned advertising agencies there, and I am little bit nervous about because I never had interviews in English before......but I am trusting myself and am very optimistic! I started researching for a way to move there somewhen last year, and within the last 2 months all was getting so fast, this was so exciting. Now I am 99% sure that all will work out for us, it just depends on the interviews, but I think it will be positive. I will go to Barbados with my 2 best friends, and my husband will follow us with my daughter for the last week - hopefully, if he will be able to get a lastminute flight.
How are your future plans for travelling there, maybe in January? If everything goes like we are planning we will be there at least at the middle of December, or at best, in August or September.

You have no idea how much I am hoping and almost praying that everything with the jobs will work out.......I have a very good feeling about, and also my friends who already live in Barbados always tell me not to worry because my work is excellent. Well I got really positive feedback after my application, so I stay positive and optimistic
John - see you there soon!!

oh
how sad....I will probably leave at the end of July, but there is a small chance that I will stay the whole summer, I will know this by the end of next week. So maybe we will be there the same time, I will keep you up-to-date!
