Placement Option
We have developed relationships with several resorts, wineries, restaurants, adventure parks and hotels throughout Canada to ensure we find you the ideal job. You are given the opportunity to learn about our employers, their locations, and the jobs they are offering. During the application process, you will complete a Job Preference Form listing your top choices of employers, jobs and locations to assist our placement team in finding the right match. We guarantee your gross weekly income will average $300 to $450 CAD or more per week for 30 - 40 hours per week. You will receive normal rostered days off which will allow you plenty of time to see the sights. See a list of our employers below.

Travel Insurance
You are required to obtain comprehensive travel insurance for the entire duration of your stay in Canada.
