Emigrating to Bermuda

Emigrating to Bermuda
Your chances of migrating to Bermuda can be heightened if you have found employment there. Therefore, it is to your best advantage if you try to seek gainful employment in the country, as this will allow you to settle in Bermuda for good.

However, there are certain things that you must bear in mind when it comes to being employed in Bermuda. One of these is that you are not the one who should apply for your work permit. It is your employer who should do this with the Bermudan government. An employer who is looking for employees should place an advertisement in the print editions of the local newspapers in the country. He should only request for a work permit for a particular foreign employee if there is really no qualified local worker who can fit into the specific post that he is hiring for. He must state this clearly in his request for a work permit.

As such, if you really want to work in Bermuda and you have no prospective employer in the country as yet, you can start by getting a subscription to the electronic edition of the country's daily newspaper, which is The Royal Gazette. Through your subscription, you can find out about the vacancies available in the country and reply directly to specific advertisements that have been issued by particular employers. You should make sure that you match the necessary qualifications and send resumes only to particular advertisements that have reference numbers and “reply-by” dates.
