Hi!
I've just got back from working the whole season in ibiza and i can honestly say its the best thing i've ever done!
Your wage totally depends on where u work. a lot of my friends PR'd for bars in the west end and were purely on a commission based wage, whereas my boyfriend PR'd for Eden n got a basic every night (and sometimes commission). The thing with a commission based wage is that in the height of season u can earn a hell of a lot of cash, but towards the end u can be barely scraping a couple euro. If u get in with the clubs then u can be safe knowing that ur getting money every night regardless of how busy it is.
I worked for a bar (not in the west end) and i got a basic, tips and drinks all night included in the job. My wage was 35euro for 6 hours n some nights i nearly doubled that in tips. plus, u get to drink all night for free n just chat to people all night n basically hav a laugh. i definately enjoyed bar work more than PRing.
 
As i went out with my boyfriend we wanted our own privacy so rented a place for just the two of us, a one bedroomed apt, with water, gas and electric for 700 euro a month, which was pretty expensive, but it was our choice. loads of my mates shared in massive four n five bedroomed apt, which, if u get enough people sharing works out dirt cheap n they are decent enough.
i didn't meet anyone whose employers provided accommodation but hav heard that it does happen. be careful tho as they'll probably take the rent out of your wage n u may get ripped off.
 
i got out there on the 12th may, which was pretty early, it was really quiet and so no one was actually hiring staff at that time. i would suggest goin out there around the 20th - 25th (thats when i'm goin back out) and get striaght to the ship inn at the top of the west end. they provide info on jobs and accommodation (just be polite n buy a drink when ur in there - they can get a bit arsy bout people just comin in to look at the board!)
 
If your still hell bent on goin drop me an email nearer the time, rachb10@hotmail.com and i'll giv u some more tips or even better arrange to meet with u. goin out with 2 other girls this year so we may even need someone to share with us!
 
maybe speak to u soon !

PR stands for public relations and basically means standing on the streets n trying to get people interested in your club/bar and trying to get them to buy tickets etc. its a fun job as u get to meet loads of interesting people but be warned there are some nobs out there who will giv u a load of grief... its definately not for the faint hearted!!
ibiza is a small spanish island, part of the balearic group. i actually worked for a scuba diving centre at the beginning of the season which was pretty cool. u get to go out onto the boat and dive for free (always a bonus when free stuff is involved!)
the company i worked for also ran parasailing, speed boat and dolphin trips (which again u got to do for free), so ibiza is not just about the nightlife, there are plenty of day jobs such as these as well.

Heya everyone!! Im seriously thinking about spending summer 2008 in ibiza. I no someone who just spent all summer out there dancing in the clubs for judge jules and dave pearce!! Wot a job!!
Im a bit worried about getting a job and accomodation out there, so i think it would be best to sort it all out before i fly out there!!??
When is the best time to go? End of april or end of may?
I have a friend who wants to go aswell but she has a long term bf so not sure if she's 100% serious about coming or not. So if anyone wants a companion??
I'm 18 and will get on with anyone as long as they are friendly and up for a laugh!!
mwah xxxxxxx
