Vancouver 2010: Winter Olympics’ jobs still available

Submitted by on January 27, 2010 – 7:40 amNo Comment

vancouver2010If you’re hoping to find work in Vancouver during the upcoming Winter Olympic Games, which run from February 12 — 28, it’s not too late.

Many tourism and hospitality businesses are still looking for staff, and they’re posting their openings via Twitter: check out tourism2010jobs and go2JobBoard for current job listings.

You can also search the go2 Job Board for more tourism positions.

Vancouver Craigslist has scads of food, beverage, and hospitality job listings as well, during the Olympics and beyond.

The Vancouver 2010 Games had been hiring directly, although according to their website, they’ve filled the majority of their Olympics positions. However, if you’re still job hunting, they advise registering with the Adecco Recruitment Agency, which is handling the remainder of their Games-time recruitment.

Remember that to work in Canada, you must either have a valid work permit or permanent resident status.

Happy hunting!
