Sorry for the delay in replying - I had to go on leave at short notice.

I think you first of all need to check the resources in my FAQ at http://www.gotocayman.com

It is your employer that needs to apply for the work permit, so therefore you first of all need to find a job.  However, it is illegal to visit Cayman to try to find work, so you have to look at the various recruitment websites/adverts to see if you can find a post and then apply.  You also have to be off-island whilst the work permit application is processed.

You may be able to get an apartment for that, so long as you are aware of other living costs (utilities, etc).

Good luck
Robert
