Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi Snowheads!
I'm looking into the possibility of doing a ski season next year. Has anyone done one before and can they give me some advice or know of anything going?
Looking to work in Morzine. Can anyone recommend any jobs either general or know of any jobs in particular. I'm looking for a job with accomm etc thrown in too.
Also when would i need to start looking from? How long would the job run?
Any advice gratefully received!
Cheers all,
Lisa xx

snowangel, I know it might seem a little dowdy but I got my first job through The Lady magazine - they used to offer some really nice ski jobs in little privatly owned chalets - worth a look I think!

I am hoping to go to canada this coming season. I have applied for a visa through BUNAC. I am getting a student visa to work as I am still technically a student when I apply (graduate June 06). I hear there is a Whistler job fair in mid october so hoping to get something then. I think the majority of work is chalet staff, waiter.waitress, bar work, ski hire, ski lift operater etc. Check out http://www.bunac.org.uk . Natives is definately a site you should check out. They have links to job sites and plenty of info on past season experiences.

Hi
We have a really nice chalet in Morzine which is full of seasonaires this winter.
I'm afraid we aren't cheap but we provide alot of extras like pick up from airport, broadband access and incoming telephone, all bedlinen duvets and towels, hosting and cleaning, free laundry facilities, and option of catered.
We can do days, weeks, months or whole season.

snowangel, start looking now. Be prepared to work harder than you want to and ski less than you'd like. Don't expect to get paid well. Be prepared to put up with holiday makers - who aren't always the nicest of people (clearly not SHs).
Try and find a well run small operator. For example, my chums here.
What do you ideally want to do (jobwise) anyway?
