Work A Mile Above Sea Level!
Mount Washington is one of Vancouver Island's largest employers, operating with a peak winter staffing level of over 800 employees. Currently, the mountain has hundreds of positions to fill in various departments.
"Our job fair is a great opportunity to find work on the mountain," explains resort HR Coordinator Owen Embree. "Attendees will be able to speak directly to departmental supervisors and in some cases, receive their initial job interview that same day." With only weeks before opening day on December 10th, the mountain is busy preparing for their upcoming hiring blitz that will take place this Saturday, November 6.
Mount Washington hopes to attract applicants who possess a passion for delivering exceptional customer service. A great attitude, high energy level, and friendly demeanor are all qualities mountain representatives are looking for when screening candidates. Naturally, it also helps to have a pre-existing passion for the snowsports industry.
