About the Role
Not every role can be listed here, and that’s part of what makes the Work Travel program exciting. Beyond the featured roles, host companies also offer positions in world renown national parks, cruise ships, resorts, theme parks and more!
Some of these jobs are seasonal—like ski resorts in the winter or camps in the summer—while others, such as retail or restaurant work, are available across seasons. This variety means that, no matter your skills or program eligibility dates, there’s always an opportunity that matches your background, preferences, and timing!
Highlights
- Wide range of roles across industries and seasons
- Opportunities suited to different skills, interests, and program availability
- Meet new people, make friends, and experience U.S. culture
- Build practical workplace skills in real job settings
