And, most importantly, a work environment filled with people who are energetic, passionate about what they do and fun to work with!

When does our hiring begin?

We have over 500 positions to fill for our next summer season so we start early in the year to get ourselves ready for opening day.  We hire and accept applications from January through to August.  In addition, although we do fill most positions by May, we continually hire throughout the season as positions become available.  This includes increasing our staffing levels during busy periods in the summer and when positions become vacant.

Who should apply?

In addition to having the list of attributes listed at the top of this page (including a passion for providing customer service) we are always looking to diversify our team.

Many times we are asked if people without previous work experience can apply for our student positions and our answer is yes!  We understand that many students may not have any experience working but still encourage them to apply.  If this sounds like you, be sure to include as much information about your personal experiences including volunteering (paid or unpaid), or even participating in social activities or groups in your application.

Want to apply?

We recommend reading our on-line Job Book first before you apply.  It describes the duties, responsibilities and qualifications required for each position.  Keep in mind that you are required to select two (2) positions of interest on your application.
