You will probably have to come to the VI to look for a job. Most employers will not seriously consider hiring a person unless that person is standing in front of them.

The good news is if you are a full charge bookkeeper and know quickbooks you will find a job on the islands. Stanford left some holes in the banking community on stx when he snatch up the best the island had. So yes you can find work here the bad new is unless you have a 4yr degree or a cpa you will definitely have to be here to get a job. Defending on your exp it should start $15 and up. Less then stateside but it all depends on your exp and contacts on island.

Are you a US citizen, if not I'm sure you know you'll need a green card.

I have a Canadian citizenship and I know from my experience with US employers its very easy to get work permit if I have employer who is ready to hire me.
I am planing to visit at the end of January but I wanted to find some contacts -so I can visit and come to interview.
