The information can be collected from the internet but the question is do I need to travel? How far do I need to travel to give the interview? How much do I need to spend for my resume? How much more money needs to be spent for the season? Most of the instructors generally spend 150 days on the slopes. Asking these questions in the beginning, saves you time unnecessary delays when you are seeking a job as a ski instructor.

You should also ask yourself which place you want to go? Do I want to stay in country I'm in, or go somewhere else, such as the United States, Canada, Australia, or Europe?

Third, get some opinions from others you know and trust, about where to look, who to contact, how they got their job, etc. In most cases, they have had tons of experience and can share that with you. That can really help in eliminating some sources that just won't work for you or that are too far away.

Getting a ski instructor's certification will also be great. That will definitely help your chances when you are looking at an employment application. You can collect information regarding places from where you can get official recognition in the internet. Organizations like PSIA, BASI, or CSIA can truly be of big help.

If you follow the tips mentioned above you can surely arrange a good job for yourself. In no time you can make a place for yourself on the slopes and earn a lot of money as well.
