There are many more jobs here on Chalets Direct (mostly small independent businesses) //chaletsdirect.com/forum/forums/forum-view.asp?fid=2. Here at Ski Jobs //ski-jobs.co.uk/. Here at Morzine Forum //morzine-forum.com/. For general information about working a season and jobs in all resorts take a look at Natives www.natives.co.uk. You can also try looking at the websites of individual companies and emailing them directly.
Most jobs start with a training course at the beginning of December and you will be expected to stay until the end of the season, usually mid-April. You can expect many jobs to come with accommodation and a lift pass included but a fairly small wage packet. You will find this is just beer money though and will be plenty. If you are working a season in a chalet then you will probably get a fair few tips but don’t be disheartened if you have a bad week as these can vary massively between guests. If you get a bar or driving job then you may need to sort out your own accommodation in resort. If this is the case then you should first speak to your employer as they may be able to help you find something. If not then try www.bedsnboard.com who have a huge selection of seasonal lets available from shared rooms and apartments to whole chalets. You can also try posting on forum websites.
Don’t be put off if you don’t get offered an interview with the first company you apply for. They all get tons of applications each year and will be sifting through to find the most suitable candidates. Some prefer young staff, some retired, some male, some female, some singles, some couples and some prefer to take unexperienced staff over more seasoned veterans.
Good luck and we’re looking forward to meeting you this winter!
