Either way they both sound like super entertaining stories!  We move into Creekside on May 1st and I will spend a day or two looking for jobs ( if I dont get the one at Whistler)

Arrived in Whistler Yesterday. Our place in Creekside is…..Cozy lets say. I Walked into Lordco (Like a Bursons or Repco Auto parts store) Walked out with full time Year round employment with Awesome benefits after 3 months including Lift passes, Medical , Dental, Paid Holiday, sweet staff deals and pays rises every 3 to 6 months! looks like Whis may be my new home for a few years.

Hi guys, I’m planning to head up to Whistler around Aug or so and seek out casual work. How hard/easy is it to find longer term (6 months+) accom? My friend who has previously worked a ski season at Whistler said there’s always people looking for housemates and it should be fairly easy. I’ll obviously be pre-booked into something for a while (not sure how long yet), but any advice on finding accom would be helpful!

You will struggle finding 6 months of work and accommodation from August As that will put you into January. So for one, Finding a job will mean it will have to be year round as Jan is well into the Ski season and two. Accommodation seems to almost double in Winter. You shouldn’t struggle to find work to last you until the end of Summer tho.
Same with Accommodation
