Sophie,
Finding a job in Kavos is usually quite easy. The greek owners hire staff all season round. A lot of 'workers' come and go during the summer, so it shouldn't be much of a problem.
If you get there at the beginning of the season (i.e. Mid-May, Early-June) you will probably be able to get the best pick.
The most common jobs are PR-ing outside bars and clubs, waitress, transfer rep for holiday companies. (eh.... I can't think of anything else sorry.......)
The pay is quite basic. It will cover your living costs but don't expect to have any money left by the end of the holiday!
Oh and if you are good do bargain with them.
Its a good laugh, 'a world of its own' I'd say some love it and others don't.
I'd definately recommend it for a summer break.
The Greek's just ask for respect and nothing else.
Hope you have a great holiday
