I applied for a couple different jobs, haven't gotten an email or phone call about how much i didn't get the positions I applied for. Anyone else apply/hear back from windells hiring staff yet?
 
Havent heard anything back from them yet..few friends of mine who applied have gotten calls..got a few more weeks to hear back from them but my hopes arent that high lol. Still spending a month in hood regardless so im stoked.
 
I applied too and haven't heard of anything. Supposedly it may not be until late April we hear back.

yea, I've got a pretty realistic outlook on getting a job up there (super slim chances) haha. hoping either way to make it to hood in june, as public park should be extra spicy with all this snow.

Haven't heard anything either and I have still lots of hope. I already am local so no matter what you boys will see me around the public lane taking laps with the boys in town.

When I get the get the "ya didn't make the cut" call, I'll start planning the week long camping trip. To whoever reads this thread, if you did apply, what positions did you apply for?

Counsoler, kitchen, maintenance, camp store sales clerk, and I forget the last.
 
A few years ago I applied to High Cascade. The shitty thing was that it was something like 10 pages all hand written. I got it done and sent in but never got an call or even email saying they got it. I mean its likely they did but it's nice that a lot of jobs you apply for online they let you know when they get your app and when the position is filled. 10 pages to sit in limbo.

Never applied to windells though because I never got a video done in time.
 
Hey guys, as you can imagine we receive TONS of

applications every year

and we are still reviewing them as we speak. Call's and

email's regarding

possible summer employment should start to go out from anywhere in a

few weeks to a

month. Remember, patience is the key.

Right on! Keepin' my fingers crossed!
 
I had my phone interview last week and it went really, really well! Granted I applied for a position in the smallest department and therefore (I believe) the least amount of applicants so that is to be expected.

For anyone who applied to be a counselor, you'll probably hear back last because sooooo many people apply for that, or at least I'm under that impression. Lots of apps to go through and such. Hiring is complete May 7th(tentatively) so you still got time!

Office Assistant, Counselor and Tramp Monitor.

Heard back and interviewed for the Office Assistant one, but haven't heard back for the other two.
 
You may think it's annoying but be persistent. Several of the current Saga employees were former Windells employees and we all got our jobs by calling them back several times or showing up as often as we could.

And after working there, they all regretted it.

False. The only people who ever regret working there are the ones who forget what it is. You're not there to go on vacation and become a break out skier or snowboarder. If you go into the job thinking that way you're going to be unhappy. However if you treat it as an actual job, which you should, you will learn a lot, have more fun, and come out 100% less jaded than most of the rest.

the exact reason I worked the rope tow for tline the last 3 summers on upper windells it was a shit ton of work to keep the tows going but I met good contacts had a fucking blast when I wasn't working and got to shred the sessions. Favorite memory would be being in the group of first skiers to get to session high cascades super pipe the looks on all the boarders faces when we came ripping through was priceless took them a few days to realize we weren't being dicks and were allowed in.

Same here...don't know if I should be losing hope or what.

Yea, if I don't hear back by May I'll have given up all hope. Tried calling and emailing their offices and they couldn't tell me anything about where they are in the hiring process.

Any word guys? Hate to be pushy, but it'd be nice to know for sure I didn't get the job so I could plan my summer elsewhere. If we haven't heard back, is it a safe assumption we weren't hired?

Thanks

hahaha, you're asking Saga for an update on your job application to Windells... Yeah you're an idiot. You're not getting the job.

PM OR CALL THEM YOU FUCKING MORON!

BTW I totally submitted an application to work with the youth groups and I haven't heard back. Pleeezee get back to me! I'm more desperate to hang with young children than a Subway spokesperson!

Called their office multiple times and they said they don't give out the hiring managers contact info. Has anyone gotten a call/email back yet?

They told me they'd be hiring all the way up to summer (because lazy hiring managers) which IMO is bullshit

kinda lame... anyone heard anything new?
 
Just got an email last night that I can be on kitchen staff this summer if I want to. Now I've got a big decision to make. I would have said yes in a heartbeat 2 months ago, but with my summer commitments it makes this hard.

Does anyone know about how many hours per week I'd be working if I took this job? I will obviously talk to them about it but just for making a preliminary decision:-)

So I don't know how many hours but if you're trying to figure out how much money you'll make, you get paid a set amount per session. At least that's how I'm getting paid and it doesn't change with more or less hours. PM me if you wanna know more, I don't want to say too much if I'm not supposed to Hahahaha.
 
So I'm officially on board with kitchen staff? Who else is working out there this summer? Any things I should bring that I might not think about?
