Big Sky Resort hires a number of new J1 students for both seasons for a variety of positions.  Decisions are made based on English level, dates of availability and work history.

All J1 hires must be hired at a job fair through CCUSA or CIEE. We only hire under the independent option if you are a return Big Sky employee.  For South Americans job fairs are typically July - September in Argentina, Chile and Peru.  Taiwan and Eastern Europe are January - April.  Please contact a local agent for more information.
