How it's Organized

All the employers and jobs listed on our site are grouped by location (e.g. States, National Park) or by category (Ski Resorts, Lodges, Camps, and so on). We have a few special categories such as Jobs on Water for raft, fishing, and river guide jobs, cruise ships and other jobs where you'll get to play in the water. Older and Bolder is aimed at the adventurous, retired types. Internships, Volunteer opportunities, and Teen jobs are also included.

In addition to our general categories, we have three types of Highlighted Job listings:

  • Help Wanted Now lists jobs that need to be filled within thirty days.
  • Seasonal Pros are seasonal jobs that require previous skills, education, or training and includes seasonal management positions.
  • Careers are year-round, full-time positions with benefits.

Most of the links on our site take you directly to the employers' recruiting page. Read about the jobs and follow their instructions to apply. Many have online applications, some have applications to print, fill out and mail in, and others just have contact information. Highlighted jobs have application instructions at the bottom of the page.

Getting the jump on the jobs

There are a couple ways that you can keep on top of what's happening at Cool Works without visiting every day.

Weekly email blast

Once a week or so we send an email with all the new employers and jobs on our site. Sign up for the weekly newsletter. If you don't have an email address or want one to use just for your job search, sign up for a free Cool Works email address.

RSS Feeds

All of our pages are available as an RSS feed. If you don't know what an RSS feed is, you can learn more on our feeds page. Click on the RSS icon at the top of the page to get to the feed and add it to your feed reader.

Post your resume

Our resume bank is specifically for Seasonal Pros and the Career jobs.

Use this resume to spotlight your skills and experience, choose where you want to work and what kind of job you're interested in and if you want to receive email notifications. When an employer posts a new ad to Seasonal Pros or Careers that fit your interests, you'll get an email alert.

You can log in to update, hide or delete your resume at any time. It is in your best interest to keep your resume fresh by keeping the information current.

Employers can search resumes by skills and other requirements. Your resume is a good overview for the employer, but most will want you to complete their application form.

NOTE: If you are not a U.S. citizen but want to work in the U.S., you will need to have a work visa. BEFORE posting your resume, CLICK HERE to learn if it will be possible for you to obtain a work visa and to start the process.
