Namibia, Bots, Tanzania Q/A's 2010/11

So I am going to make the jump and go to Southern Africa come around mid-november 2010 with FAA CPL IR SEL + MEL w/ 260 hrs and I have a few questions.

1. When is the hiring season for these countries.
2. What is on the conversion exam? Does it focus on any specific areas?
3. Are you guys camping or staying in hostels during the interim while searching?
4. Interview attire?
5. What is the pay per year ( rough idea ) and living costs for an apt ( again rough guess ) ?
6. Any companies to stay away from inparticular?
7. How does it work with VISA's ( tourist ) and renewing that Visa while looking for jobs

* To the forum please just repsond to the questions. I know that there are these answers lying around but they are buried in all of the forum posts so I just wanted to start something new clear and concise.

Thanks to everyone for their help.
