There are many jobs at ski resorts, including instructors, ski technicians, lift operators, mechanics, cashiers, and jobs in retail sales and food services. You might get hired on a casual basis this year and have a good chance of getting hired full-time next year if you have been reliable. Check out your local shops and malls to see who is hiring for the busy shopping season. Look for signs in windows or dress in your best interview outfit for a personal visit.
Mornings are best to speak with store managers.

If you have these certificates, you have an advantage over those who do not.
