As our employee you will have the opportunity to interact with Guests from all over the world while working in a unique environment. That's why it's so important for you to understand what will be expected of you every day as we strive to make each Guest experience unique and special.
Working at one of our resorts offers you the unique opportunity to represent your country and culture in a variety of ways. This is such an amazing opportunity that you will want to make sure that you will be available to complete the entire program. Flexibility within your work assignment is a key requirement, as you will be exposed to various Guest service initiatives throughout our resorts or parks.
Our employees are compensated by an hourly rate of pay, working an average of 40 hours per week. You must be willing and flexible to work day and evening shifts, possibly involving a variety of different positions. Generally, you will be assigned any combination of two consecutive days off within a seven (7) day workweek from Sunday to Saturday. Your days off may vary from week to week. During opening, closing and peak guest attendance periods, such as holidays, you may be required to work overtime, including normally scheduled days off.
You will be responsible for the cost of the visa and any additional reciprocity fees in your home country, as well as travel costs to the closest U.S. Embassy or Consulate to obtain the visa. Your visa authorizes employment for the resort you get hired at ONLY. Second jobs are permitted on a case by case basis. Although it's hard to say "good-bye," you are required to leave the United States in a timely manner after your program is complete. Your travel itinerary must be arranged in conjunction with your sponsor company arrival policy upon approval of your visa. You will be responsible for your transportation costs to and from your home country.
Please indicate what kind of visa you will be using to work in the US.

These companies charge a fee for their services. If you would like to work for Aramark Parks & Resorts, please arrange your J-1 through one of these agencies. We will not send independent offers of employment directly to applicants unless they are returning 2005 employees. All offers of employment will be presented through one of the above sponsor companies or during one of our Job Fairs. A schedule of these job fairs will be posted soon. Please check back often.
