 Poster: A snowHead
|
My son will be on a gap year next winter. Does anyone know how he can
go about finding out about some work in a resort. He'll be 18, skiied for
1 week x 13 years. Foreign languages not good, but he is plucky.

Hi Simon,
Will be of no help at all but very interested in your query.I'm 25 myself and will be looking for something similar myself next season, 2* beginners courses done with UCPA, French is poor.
Look forward to hearing the responses from snowheads.
Regards

The obvious one would be to work for a TO as a Chalet host, barman, night porter, hotel host. Yhey normally open applications around about July he could go for resort rep but a lot of the TO's prefer people, the companies with the most jobs are Crystal/Thomson, Inghams and Neilson but there are also a lot of smaller companies especially in France. Language isn't really a requirement with the big TO's.

Although they have been known to employ a few dogs.

Hi,
Get him to take a look at Natives www.natives.co.uk which has loads of information and suggestions for winter work, as well as a good database of companies who are recruiting.
Good luck!

Simon, To be a rep you need to be over 21. Check out Natives.co.uk for loads of info on working a season.
All of the major TO's have a "work for us" section on their websites. Simply click and fill in an application form. Once the season over the HR dept will start the process of recruitment for the 2011/12 season.

this character seems to be digging up a lot of posts from 2004 for some reason, if you look at most of the posts on page 2, the first post is from 2004 and replied to by the same person - daehwons
