Chance to get a job in Bahamas

Hi there :-) I've got a few questions, hoping someone will have the answers :-) First of all, if someone will go to the Bahamas alone what do you think, what is the chance to get a "normal" job? What is the average salary there, how about the taxes if you are not local? Please explain for me the behaviour there, I mean: mood, are they stressed, patient, and so on? How about the apartment renting? For me the key point is: if you already live there as a foreigner, how do you feel yourself? Do you like it, would you recommend?
Thanks :-)

Hi,

I came to the Bahamas when I was 15 and I have been here for 16 years at first it was very difficult I wanted to go back to Cuba. Then after the first year I began to adjust.

Life here has its benefits as well as its problems. I have encountered a lot of foreigners , specially because the tourism industry is so vast here.

Rent ranges between 600-4000. depending on location and salaries from 250 per week and up . depending on your skills.

As a foreigner, I have learned to embrace it. However it's a small place there are not that many people and the capital is over crowded that majority of the population lives in Nassau and the downside is the weather on hurricane season.

People here are nice,majority of colored race, 12% caucasian. The rest mixture of different entities from around the world.

Stressed some, diabetes seems to be the biggest problem, and some AIDS.

Hope this helps.

If you have any more questions I'd be happy to assist .

ALl the best.
Hello,

Living in bahamas is good, but you live one or few huricane per year, working you receive around 250 at 500 per week depend your position.
Rent is a big problem, you share one apartment is the best option if you want rent one, around $700 at no limite.
You need one insurance or medicare, and you find one around $2000 per year.
The food cost also a lot, but you dont payd any taxes, the people are realy nice, but stay in one big island, because find one job is faster.
best regards
Well for now i live in Bahamas. First all for聽 direct and indirect experience聽 i wish to say聽 for聽 everyone who want to move to Bahamas DO NOT COME IN聽 FREEPORT ( GRAND BAHAMAS ) It's聽 a very very boring city and聽 you never will breath the real Bahamas air here in Freeport. I went to Nassau the capital of Bahamas聽 and聽 wowo i like it and聽 the most people of Bahamas i mean bahamian聽 , they never what to deal with bahamians聽 from Freeport. I didn t know why . Now i know they are tricky they behavie so聽 strange with the people and聽 when they are gentil is for interest in something. The way they work in different聽 field of work聽 they are NOT聽 profesional. About it i wish to聽 warn the people to聽 DO NOT DEAL FON ANY REASON WITH BANK OF BAHAMAS OF FREEPORT . Some聽 employeer in past were fired聽 because they stolen money from the聽 clints account.One day i went to that bank because i had to receive some EURO MONEY.Well guess what? the casher / teller聽 asked to: excuse me i don t know EURO . In which country you use Euro? I was shoked for real. I said in which country did u study??Unbelieveable And then she ask聽 to em to聽 check how much 1 EURO聽 in dollar. I said yes sure聽 miss you can go to take a coffee i do all alone. So becarefull to Bahamas. Today some thief still work there. Once of victim is my girlfriend.This is my hint and opinion. Now i don t want to say聽 that everybody in Freeport is like that. There are lot people honest and great worker . But here is different from other islands of Bahamas So becarefull.Apart that , for live in Bahamas聽 is better u come with your own money so u cant start a business. Here to hire a foreigner it s mean that company has to pay 10.000 dollars per year for your work permit.By the way is better to take out a policy聽 or better a health insurance .For example i was victim of a easy folliculitis and i didn t have a health insurance. I went to some of max expert doctor here Doct. B..... and he said聽 this is something that you eat for example bbq souce . o he send to me to do a blood test. he gave me some medicine聽 after 1 month the medicin were water they didn t work properly. So I went to other 2 doctors聽 and they gave me other medicine and anti biotic for聽 2 months聽 and nothing yet and at all i spent 500 dollars for nothing. So i send the picture to my doctor to EUROPE and聽 he said聽 how is possible that doctors聽 cannot recognize a easy folliculitis? Thanks God my family聽 were coming to vacation here they bringed me a cream and聽 2 days i had not more folliculitis. I m not talking bad of BAHAMAS聽 because even the same bahamina are victim of all that ignorance. Guess what the first doctor聽 i wen t he was the ministry of health. I was shoked when bahaminas said me that.Bahamas Is聽 a wonderfull country聽 the quality of life聽 is once of the聽 better聽 within the聽 most caribbean country. A lot people is gentil. But you have to be carefull.By the way if you will come to Bahamas and you will have not intention to go to USA you can change in bahamian dollars.But if you will think to go to USA is better聽 you come with U.S dollars because in Bahamas theyacept and they use U.S dollars聽 and聽 Bahamian dollars. Both. 1 bahamian dollars is = 1 U.S dollars.聽 But this in BAHAMAS. iF YOU TRY TO CHANGE 1 BAHAMIAN DOLARS IN USA they will count it 0.80 U.S cent.聽 聽If you want to change聽 in Bahamas聽 in BANK OF BAHAMAS 1000 bahamian dollars they go to charge to you 5 dolars every 1000.
