I applied in-person. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Jiminy Peak (Hancock, MA) in Nov 2012
Interview
The interview was completely out of the office- we were brought right one the hill, given basic training techniques the mountain used, and then asked to put the techniques in practice. I felt it was much more effective than simply sitting is down and asking if we were good with children. We were able to show our skills.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Questions were based on teaching techniques. What is the most effective way to teach turns, etc?
