Hiring process

We will then ensure you meet the basic requirements of the Canadian Working Holiday Visa & that you are a good fit for our Canadian ski resort and hotel partners. Basically we want to make sure it’s a solid fit for you and for the resorts / hotels. We don’t make the final employment decision…the resorts / hotels do…we just make sure we prepare you as best as we can so employers have no other choice but to hire you!! We’re not backward in coming forward…so if this programme isn’t right for you…we’ll let you know, so we don’t waste your time, the resort/hotel’s time, our time and most importantly…your money!!!

PRE-SCREENING APPLICATION

Once your deposit payment has been received we will then send you an online application form and our T&C’s. Our T&C’s are there for you to READ not just tick off…so make sure you read everything prior to jumping in with two feet!!! The online application form is an opportunity for applicants to let us know what resort & roles you’re interested in & when they can start and plan to finish!!

PRE-SCREEN INTERVIEW

On completion of the application form, your documentation will be forwarded to our recruitment manager who then send you an online video where you will  be asked x5 interview questions and asked to video yourself answering these questions. Once you have completed the pre-screen the video will be assessed by the recruitment manager and should you require more interview help, will set up a time to have an live call with you. If your interviewing abilities are sound, the Recruitment Manager will send the Resort Specific Application Form.

RESORT SPECIFIC APPLICATION

A resort specific application form will then be sent to the applicant. This form, once completed, will eventually be sent to the resorts for their consideration prior to face to face interview. The resort specific application form allows the applicant to upload their personal information and make statements on why they should be hired. This form requires applicants to upload their resume, x 2 written letters of reference and a smiling photo plus other written information about themselves and their experiences.

RESORT / HOTEL INTERVIEW

A face to face or Skype interview with a Canadian ski resort or hotel representative will then be set up, on a one on one scenario. This date is usually set up months in advance allowing applicants to research and practice their interviewing skills.

Once applicants have had their interviews with Canadian resort or hotel reps, applicants will not be advised if they have been successful until all applicants for that particular resort or hotel have been interviewed and considered. This can be at last 3-4 weeks. We are proud of our 92% Success rate with our interviewees 🙂

JOB CONTRACT

For those who have been offered roles, job offers will be sent out requesting confirmation of job and start dates. Resort contracts will then be released & sent directly to applicants from the employer and need to be read, signed and sent back within a timely manner to ensure jobs are confirmed!
