2022 Summer seasonal jobs I've applied to. Housing included! 

$17/hr for housekeeping!!! Nice. Boo I can do remote I have a car now!!😆

I saw the tshirt company but the housing is painful

@@m.b.8521 What is it like?

@@NathansWay lots of kids sharing bathrooms. I’m looking at mackinaw island now, but asking lots of questions about housing

@@NathansWay also 18 an hour in Alaska don’t go a long way

@@m.b.8521 I was looking at the island to but somofe the places on that island looks like they pay low

This is a good time to start applying to summer jobs, most of them start around mid-April to mid-May, I've even seen one or two with a march start date as well. Honestly, I've noticed a lot of jobs being real slow getting back about applications, I've talked to other seasonal workers who say the same. I would honestly go ahead and start applying now, if you're already in the hiring process for a job you can always bow out if something better comes along. You can also wait a bit before applying if you'd like but if you see a job you really want go for it.

@@bri_nicolex The key to buying groceries in Alaska is to go to a Safeway, if they have one close. Just go on Fridays for the $5 specials. That's what I did when I worked in Seward. But if you have a "Tipped Position" you're gonna wanna eat out anyway. Me, and my Homie were just using our Tip money on food. Lol!😄

@@michaelmcmillan1425 yeah I definitely could have tried to make it work if I felt like it was the right position for me.😏 Although I have a lot of growing up to do when it comes to effective grocery shopping, I still go to the store and spend so much and then go home and seem to have so little 😅

If I'm being completely honest I'd have to say I don't always ask before putting down references, but I usually choose people that know me well enough that it wouldn't be weird 😬 at least that's what I tell myself. In corporate America I think it's expected that you'd ask before putting someone down as a reference but with seasonal jobs, they're so temporary that you tend to submit applications all the time and it would be alot to always email references EVERY time you apply. I usually just use past and current supervisors, managers and coworkers for professional references, but I'm careful to choose people who I truly interacted with often and who do know me well enough to give a non generic reference. Also alot seasonal places wouldn't admit to it but some don't even check your references.

@@bri_nicolex thanks for your informative reply!! Hope you get the job u want :))

😂 cracking me up per usual. I knew I wasn’t the only one irritated about the job apps, like 😒 do you even want me to apply

@@bri_nicolex lol exactly!

Im in alaska now valdez

Yes! There are plenty of places that you can apply to with either a J1 visa or H2B, they usually have information on that on their job posting on coolworks. It also doesn't hurt to email places if you're not sure if they accept international applicants.

Yeah you'd likely need to look for places that are only open during the summer, most year round places would want you to stay longer, although it's not always required that you stay the whole time . I don't know of any personally, the only place that I've been to that is only open during the summer is Basin Harbor but I would not recommend. The YMCA here in Colorado also hires alot of college students for the summer, it's a good option if you can deal with the high room and board fees.

@@bri_nicolex I also worked as a Night Auditor in Big Sky Resort in Montana. You should get your OWN room, with cable! Plus they have a Shuttle that goes to Bozeman, so you can get your groceries Gor food. They have a Mimi fridge, and a Microwave in the room.

@@michaelmcmillan1425 oh wow that's nice. How much is housing?

@@bri_nicolex I think it's $300 a month. But I'll be working in Talkeetna Alaska this Summer. Me and the GM are tight. I can put you on there. And the Housing is FREE! And by the way, you're Beautiful Bria! But Alaska is Definitely the spot to save Alot of money! I saved over $8,000 while working as a driver in Seward years ago. And with my tip money, I didn't even have to tap into my check. I used that to eat out. I'm totally like you Bria. I HATE cooking! LMAO 😄!

@@michaelmcmillan1425 I'd totally given up on going to Alaska, seemed like it wasn't meant to be. Maybe next season though, I'm pretty committed to going to Glacier now.

At the time I remember seeing a lot of summer camps and a resort in Montauk, but to see what's available you'd have to go to coolworks, you can search by state. New York doesn't usually have a ton of opportunities but if you keep and eye out you can usually catch a good one.

When I was at Basin Harbor we would often get Rockers pizza delivered, we weren't really big on breakfast though. Unfortunatly we couldn't venture out too much because me and my friends didn't have cars at the time.

I’ve actually heard great things about it, and it seems like it would be perfect for this carless gurl. I’d forgotten about it but imma check it out. Thanks ✌🏼

Ones in Hawaii are few and far in between the only one I've seen on Coolworks is the Four Season's resort Lana'i .

It's one Hawaii call Kona hills llc it's a coffee picking farm has room and board 20 a hour thank me later

@@captainmann5759 thanks for providing that for everyone.

@@captainmann5759 gratitude are they hiring asap ?

Idk go check on indeed

🎉🎉 how fun!!! Congrats. Are you excited? Where will you be working?

@@bri_nicolex harbor ale house, waitressing and the housing is on a fairy the company is renting. yes I'm super excited! going with no vehicle so fingers crossed the public transportation is decent

@@peytonchadwick2648 housing on a ferry sounds cool. As a fellow no car having person😄 I hope it works out and that you have fun. 🤞🏼

@@bri_nicolex I will spell ferry right one of these days haha. One summer you should check out signal mountain lodge in grand Teton national park. I was there in 2019 had the best summer. employee housing and 3 meals a day EDR. enjoy your summer girl!!

@@peytonchadwick2648 😄, I totally spelt it the same way you did but fixed it when I thought it looked funky. Thanks for the tip. Enjoy your summer too. ✌🏼

I'm sorry you had a bad summer there.😟 I can totally relate to being at a place you hate. Thanks for sharing that though, it's always good to be kept aware of other's experiences.
