Any advice on moving to the Dominican Republic in the tourism industry?

I am planning to move fro Canada to the DR & hopefully land a job in a hotel/resort & maybe teach scuba diving on the side. I have lived in a few locations in the Caribbean for a few months at a time, and I miss it a lot. Looking for a good place to call my new home! Any advice?

It is extremely difficult to find a good job in the DR unless you have qualifications which may be in demand. As a rule employers hire friends who "have paid their dues", and know the ins and outs of the country.Here are a couple of sites in Puerto Plata and Sosúa which may be of help. You may also find our yahoo Sosúa group of help. Good luck.
