Which Greek Island would be the best for work this year?

i an assuming that the line if work you are looking for is in the tourist business. if is that so you probably want to look to islands with developed touristic industry like crete rhodes santorini mykonos kos corfu... but that does not mean that it would be impossible for you to find work on another island. good luck

All Greek islands have work, it just depends what you want to do. If you speak English and German you may find work in a hotel or travel office. You may want to work in a bar, it all depends on your experience and what sort of job you want. I live in kos and people are arriving and looking for jobs, but many don't speak German which is a must in many areas of work. We are looking for someone to work for the summer season in our car and bike hire business but as yet we have only had people who speak English, over half our customers are German (or people from Eastern Europe who speak a little German).

If you know what you want to do, do your homework first and search online for hotels etc.. on the island of your choice, there are so many islands to choose from in Greece. Find out what skills are needed and if accommodation is included etc.. don't just turn up and hope for the best.

Good luck.

Not very safe. Official US Embassy report :

The U.S. Government remains deeply concerned about the heightened threat of terrorist attacks against U.S. citizens and interests abroad. Like other countries that are members of the Schengen Agreement for free cross-border movement, Greece’s open borders with its European neighbors allow the possibility of terrorist groups entering/exiting the country with anonymity. As the first entry point into Schengen from points south and east, Greece’s long coastline and many islands also heighten the possibility that foreign-based terrorists might try to exploit Greece’s borders. Domestic terrorist organizations such as Revolutionary Struggle and “Sect of Revolutionaries” have become increasingly active against both domestic and foreign targets in Greece. Recent attacks and attempted attacks have included the use of Molotov cocktails (gasoline bombs), small arms and rifle fire, and improvised explosive devices, the largest being a 50-kilo car bomb which failed to detonate before the police arrived. The Greek police forces, other Greek governmental agencies, private American and Greek businesses, and the United States Embassy have been attacked in the last three years. Recent actions indicate that the perpetrators are indiscriminate. The risk of “being in the wrong place at the wrong time” in the event of a terrorist action is a concern for residents and visitors. U.S. tourists or residents in Greece should remain vigilant, exercise caution, and monitor local developments. Some current terrorist organizations are aligned with the ideology of the older Marxist terrorist group November 17 (N17) which targeted Greek businessmen and officials, as well as officials from NATO countries in Greece, from the mid-1970s until the early part of this decade. N17 terrorists murdered 23 people, including five U.S. Government employees. Strikes and demonstrations are a regular occurrence. Greece is a stable democracy and these activities for the most part are orderly and lawful. However, a wave of incidents started when a teenager was shot and killed in an encounter with the police in December 2008. Incidents occurred throughout Greece, but the primary sources of violence were in Athens and Thessaloniki, Protestors there engaged in violent confrontations with the police and carried out destructive vandalism and rioting in localized areas, some of which are areas frequented by tourists, injuring numerous police officers. Riot control procedures often include the use of tear gas. Visitors should keep abreast of news about demonstrations from local news sources and hotel security. When there are demonstrations, visitors should be aware of and avoid places where demonstrators frequently congregate, such as the Polytechnic University area, Exarchia, Omonia, and Syntagma Squares in Athens, and Aristotle Square in Thessaloniki. The Omonia and Exharchia areas of Athens are at particular risk for crime and politically-motivated violence; U.S. Embassy personnel and their families have been urged strongly to avoid these areas between 9 pm and dawn.

Crisis at all levels ! Greece is not able to solve this problems alone. We need our neighbor countries to send here armies and police to organize order.

Many local people would like to work too. Where to find it though.

MACEDONIA IS A GREEK PROVENCE, IT WAS ALWAYS A PLACE INHABITED BY GREEK POPULATION, ALEXANDER THE GREAT WAS GREEK AND HE INTRODUCED THE GREEK CIVILIZATION TO THE WHOLE WORLD IN HIS TIME.

F.Y.R.O.M (FORMER YUGOSLAV REPUBLIC OF MACEDONIA) WANTS TO STEAL GREEK MACEDONIA AND FALCIFICATES HISTORY.
