The information can be collected from the internet but the question is do I need to travel? How far do I need to travel to give the interview? Do I need to spend money for a quality resume? How much extra money will I need for the season? Most of the instructors generally spend 150 days on the slopes. Asking these questions in the beginning, saves you time unnecessary delays when you are seeking a job as a ski instructor.

The second question you should ask yourself is where do I want to go? Do I want to stay in country I'm in, or go somewhere else, such as the United States, Canada, Australia, or Europe?
