INSPIRATION & ENCOURAGEMENT
THE TRAIL AT YOUR FEET

Since 1995, CoolWorks has been a leader in connecting people seeking meaningful and exciting work with the employers who are looking for their enthusiasm, energy, and knowledge. We believe that you can and should love your job, and we want to help make that happen! We post job opportunities in great places– everything from national parks to ski resorts to retreat centers, and everything in between. Our journal profiles the exciting stories from CoolWorkers to inspire you to take that next step. Whether you are still discovering your passion, need a seasonal career, or just feel the call to change paths, we’ve got everything you need to help you find your next great adventure.

Kind Words From Our Fans
Seasonal work completely changed my life! If it weren’t for one summer job as a wrangler in Colorado, I would have headed to the big city and missed the chance to start a career I love in an unexpected and completely amazing place! Who knew you could start a PR firm in Montana?Courtenay S. Cool Works' Fan and Seasonal Job Alumni
Just wanted to say thank you for CoolWorks! Both of my sons 18 and 21, have made their way from where we live in North Carolina to Nantucket, MA; Jackson Hole, WY; and in a few weeks Vail, Colorado because of your service. I’m a big fan and share CoolWorks whenever I can. CoolWorks is the road less traveled. My kids will find their paths someday and look back at these jobs as great adventures where they learned a lot about the world and themselves. I’m looking forward to my retirement when I can browse your offerings for some adventure of my own.
