Applying to be a Club Med G.O can be a long process. You apply, you get your interview… and then you wait for the contract. Some people wait a few days, others can wait up to a year! Why is that?
In this video, I talk about the waiting period between being accepted (after the interview) and getting a contract with a specific start date, and I also tell you what you can do to increase your chances of getting called faster.

.......ABOUT ME……
When I was younger, I used to dream of traveling the world and working abroad. But I also wanted to study journalism and work in television. So I started with the latter, and spent more than 10 years working as a TV & radio reporter, presenting the weather, and live hosting for a popular Montreal morning show.
In June 2016, I stumbled on a completely crazy opportunity… and I decided to take the leap.
2 weeks later, I was flying out to Club Med Punta Cana to work as a G.O, first in Guest Relations/Reception, but then transitioning to Community Manager in Turks & Caicos, and eventually expert content creator for the entire North American zone.
I left G.O life in December 2018, and I now freelance as a content creator and digital marketing consultant, while still doing some hosting and narration work on the side. I continue to travel and act like a clown in front of cameras.

I really want to be a G.O. when I grow up. Every time I've been to ClubMed, it's been an amazing experience, and I want to be someone that helps create those experiences for other people. After I left Cancun, I cried for four days (no joke) I still miss it so much!

Hi Vincent, I'm pretty sure that's something that can be arranged, especially if you are married. I've worked with a few married couples and although it can be a little tricky in terms of getting a contract (Club Med needs to find a village that needs both of your requested positions at the same time), it's still doable. :)

Hey Jessica! I loooved your videos which I find super informative, understandable and fun! Great job! However may I still ask you a question: I've applied online for the Club Med G.O. position (the first one that you've actually mentioned here in the video), almost 1,5 months ago and got no reply (no invitation for an interview yet). Does THAT really happen? And it doesn't mean right away that my candidature failed - I still can be even unreviewed yet, correct?
@JessLaventure
@JessLaventure 4 года назад
Hi Dasha! First of all, thanks for watching and for sending such kind comments! I'm so glad the videos are helping you. Secondly, you didn't receive any reply after you sent your application? Normally, you should get a response telling you if you've been selected for an interview or not. May I ask which specific position you applied for? (Every position is a G.O position. 😉 G.O Front Desk, G.O Fitness, G.O Hostess, G.O Mini Club, etc etc... A G.O is anyone who works and lives on the Club Med resort, give or take a few exceptions.) And may I ask which country you're applying from? I'll try to get more info for you.
@dbarson473
@dbarson473 4 года назад
Jessica, Thank you so much for such a quick response! 1. Yep, I didn't receive ANY reply after sending an application.. 2. I applied for a position of a Choreographer.

hi Jessica, i´ve been watching your videos and i really like it. I have some questions about the process of recruitment and i would like you to answer it. 1. It is possible that even when you receive your email that you pass the interview, you never receive the contract? 2.If you applied to one position it is possible to write an email asking if they could consider you to also to another one, while you are waiting for a contract? Hope you are well, bye !
@JessLaventure
@JessLaventure 3 года назад
Hi Sara! Let me try to answer you questions as best as I can: 1. It's not impossible, but it's unlikely. It could take a while for you to get a call back, but if you follow up with recruitment from time to time, they will let you know if they really didn't need your services. 2. Yes, it is absolutely possible! You can write to the recruitment team (email in the description of the video) and mention the information I talked about. Then just let them know which other jobs you'd be interested in and how you qualify for them (your experience, diplomas, certifications, etc). If you have other questions, feel free to email me at clubmed@jessicalaventure.com. :)

My friend used to work at Club Med before.. she told me the wage was about $700US/month.. is that right? Is it better now?
@JessLaventure
@JessLaventure 4 года назад
I believe the minimum wage is higher now, but it depends on the job you have, your experience, and also your nationality (the wages are matched with cost of life in your country of origin so that it's fair for everyone.) Also, you have to keep in mind that everything is paid for you: your room, your food, drinks (you have access to the same food and beverages as the guests), housekeeping and laundry services, uniform and basically any activity (including gym, etc) on site. So that counts in your salary as well.
