Best thing to do is get here as soon as possible because most companies will want face to face interviews and jobs are running out fast here right now!!! Most of the ski season jobs wont start til june as this is when the ski fields actually open this year around Queenstown. Make sure you have a visa to work in NZ and possibly a criminal record and of course a CV ready or you will not get employment with most companies. Best thing to do is search google NZ for 'ski jobs nz' and also search 'ski resorts nz' With both of these searches all the ski resorts/areas will come up and if you click on each link, each website will have its own job section where you can browse and apply for jobs. Some of the major ones are: www.mtruapehu.com/ www.nzski.com/ www.seasonworkers.com www.queenstownjobs.co.nz www.anyworkanywhere.com/ www.snowworkers.com snow.co.nz/listings/nz/employment/ www.backpackerboard.co.nz/work_jobs/index.php Also try NZ job search (major job search sites - search in queenstown and wanaka areas) On yahoo-redirects you to SEEK.co.nz and TRADE ME.co.nz<p><a href="http://www.fastclickbankmoney.com/" rel="nofollow">Clickbank Plugin</a></p> I live in the south island in Queenstown and will be working on one of the ski resorts here.

]]> Comment on Are there *any* jobs at a ski (must allow snowboarders) resort for a 15 year old? by luke http://www.jetsetjob.com/are-there-any-jobs-at-a-ski-must-allow-snowboarders-resort-for-a-15-year-old/#comment-198 luke Fri, 08 Oct 2010 05:59:33 +0000 http://www.jetsetjob.com/ski-resort-jobs/ski-area/are-there-any-jobs-at-a-ski-must-allow-snowboarders-resort-for-a-15-year-old/#comment-198 Not sure where West or South Jordan are but I can tell you I work at Holiday Valley NY which is voted year after year one of the best resorts in the country and we have 15 year olds who work there. If you are decent you can usually be an instructor or what we call Yeti's who are instructors in training but still get a free pass. You also can usually get a job working in one of the resort cafeterias or the like. The best thing to do is call the resort, tell them you want a job doing anything and see what they have. They will gladly tell you anything open especially if you show enough enthusiasm to call. Chances are any resort you call will have something but you need to do it now before the season starts. Once the snow starts falling resorts usually are fully staffed so act quick!<p><a href="http://www.creamantiwrinkle.com/" rel="nofollow">Anti Wrinkle Cream</a></p> Not sure where West or South Jordan are but I can tell you I work at Holiday Valley NY which is voted year after year one of the best resorts in the country and we have 15 year olds who work there.

]]> Comment on I’m trying to get a ski resort job in Aspen for the 2010-2011 ski season. How hard is it to land a job? by DaveInSeoul http://www.jetsetjob.com/im-trying-to-get-a-ski-resort-job-in-aspen-for-the-2010-2011-ski-season-how-hard-is-it-to-land-a-job/#comment-49 DaveInSeoul Sat, 30 Jan 2010 10:39:35 +0000 http://www.jetsetjob.com/ski-area/im-trying-to-get-a-ski-resort-job-in-aspen-for-the-2010-2011-ski-season-how-hard-is-it-to-land-a-job/#comment-49 I spent two years out in Colorado ski-bumming. If you are 'on-site' jobs, the are usually fairly easy to get, but don't try and apply from out-of-town and don't expect to get paid well. All the jobs I worked (I worked in Summit County, not Aspen, but it is the same pretty much all over the ski-towns) were minimum wage or slightly over, and were the direct result of me being on the spot when someone decided to 'take the job and shove it'. Good luck in finding a job that pays more than the minimum wage, and be prepared to live with a roommate or two (almost everybody does it). Also, don't plan to be there the entire year. That was the mistake I made, and while I did it for one year, I didn't last the second. While there are more summer jobs in Aspen than in the past, trying to stay employed in the fall and spring is really, really, hard. I spent two years out in Colorado ski-bumming.
