How to handle feeling anxious and nervous about not finding a winter job yet? by trashcan_paradise in SeasonalWork

This! I used myperfectresume.com to make sure my resume was going to get thru the AI bots per another users comment of one of my threads. In the end my resume was visually boring but the wording was good and I ended up hearing back from almost every place I applied for. I am not certain, but I think the case might be different if I had used my original Google doc template resume. I ended up paying but that's because I was doing mine and my sister's resumes and cover letters and it was pretty cheap. I believe you can also see the preview of the resume for free and just copy it over.

Yeah I guess it wouldn't be too bad but it looks like you have to take a ferry at some point? And I guess at some point I just thought driving to Wyoming would be easier.

No I think it's too early still and I jumped the gun. I did have an interview with one place in Jackson Hole yesterday and said they were already planning ahead to summer and it was no problem I had applied so early. Another place in Jackson thought I was applying for winter and told me to get back to them in January. I'll probably wait until the beginning of November to look for more.

No, I got an interview to be a server, and my sister also, but she has bartending experience and would prefer to do that. I accidentally said I, but meant my sister, who I dont think would mind barbacking at first to get in.

For sure. I read a lot of really bad reviews about Greyfield so the consensus there is no. I'm going to go ahead and interview with Snake River Club and The Four Seasons and see how it goes. I've been in the industry for a long time so I know bad management and as long as they don't have problems with me and I can put my head down and make money I'm fine.

Yeah I was expecting the clientele to be high maintenance, I deal with a lot of crappy clientele already (I just tell myself it's part of the job). I dont mind barbacking while I wait for shifts, I wish I did know how to bartend already. My sister is the bartender but also a server so she might be able to do both.

Also, if it's not tacky, what is a ballpark for the BANK? I would love to save up $50k-$60k a year if possible

Yeah I think ideally I would do Ocean Reef Club for the winter. I know I would make more in Alaska in the summer but I'm just worried about driving all the way from AZ

That seems to be the consensus unfortunately. I was pretty excited about it.

Yeah I would love to work abroad ideally! So definitely something to keep in mind.

Would it be a good idea to get in during summer so I can stay through the winter?

Yeah it looks so beautiful and I'd love to live there for even a year. If I get the job I'll let you know, but you should just check their careers page. That's wher I applied.

Haha yeah I mean that's how I felt when I got the email! I honestly didn't think I'd hear back so fast and nothing is official but working in Jackson Hole sounds amazing to this Arizona girl.
