How to get a job in Japan…

Yeah, I’ve checked out the Evergreen site, I’ll be applying through them in July like they say to.

Working for a lodge sounds like a pretty good deal for ride time, but I only want to instruct, it’s just what I love to do.

Yeah I’ll check that out too. Sounds like a good deal if I can get in. Although not much free time.

As previously mentioned, Ski resorts in Japan have a number of privately run ski schools operating independently from the resort.
There are still some ski schools that are run as part of the resort’s infrastructure.
Goryuu/47 have their own ski school, so does Tsugaike Kogen and Iwatake

Also check out Harmony Resorts in Niseko. They run the NISS school.
bigplanetplacements.com post up quite a few jobs in Japan

Hope that helps

Most likely theyll have a HR email or an info email.

Be it watever you want to work in, i generally just throw an email, Attention Liftops or Snowsports watever ure into, just ask em to foward on all ure shit to the correct department and watnot.

Or u can just rock up to the mtn chill in front of the liftops/snowsports office and wait for a manager to come out, and hit the prick up directly.

Cud do a bit of research , look for snowsports or liftops managers numbers via internets or calling up the resort directly, usually if u get onto them direcly applications usually fastracked then going thru the HR bullshit.

Yeah kno wat u mean tho, its hard to find any contacts for jap resorts in the canadian/aus snow industry.
