Many people especially the young students try to obtain a job while traveling. It is very easy to do so but you will not be able to do it in advance. Most seasonal employers on the islands will not commit in advance. They would like to see you and make sure that you will be there when they need you. Don’t worry about finding a job because the work is always more than the help available. Every restaurant, bar, coffee shop is willing to hire new faces. Just be prepare if you want to save money you will be able to do that but the work is usually more than eight hours per day more like 10-12 and there is not day off from the beginning of the summer till the end (6 months). Many employers will offer you food and place to stay and because you will be working hard for many hours every day you will be able to save your salary.
If you do come and you need work only to socialize and make some small amount of money for expenses you can negotiate with the employers for a half time working day. For young person working in a Greek island for a few hours per day can make your holiday very rewarding because you will meet many people and learn the culture and the language without any hustle. So my advice to you is: book your holiday, see how long you can stay, and while here go around the island (anyone) and ask the locals for job. Know exactly how many hours you would like to work and don’t worry I haven’t see a person leaving from here because he hasn’t got a job.
