      Hey Lauren! Thanks for the question! I won’t be specific with who I worked for, but if you want details, dm me privately on Instagram @ashtynmurphh! But I worked as a housekeeper in one of the hotels in Whistler and honestly it was a physically demanding and mentally draining job. It was an 8-4 job and I should’ve realized evening jobs are better in whistler if you want to experience the full ski life. I did also work a side job at a pub in whistler as a hostess. That was in the evenings and I enjoyed it a lot more. I find the restaurant industries there have really friendly and bubbly people! Also it can be fun because it’s such a party scene in whistler all the time, to get to be first hand working to support that. Let me know if you have more questions! ☺️

My job is great since they help you with staff housing, and they put you in a room that is associated with them. However some jobs out here don’t have staff accomodations, so I would be looking on Facebook pages like “whistler housing crisis” or “whistler housing” about 2-3 months before. There is a housing crisis here so I would be more worried about getting housing than a job. Companies are under staffed like crazy here at the moment, you can probably find a job no problem!
