From the sounds of the job description, the ideal candidate is an outgoing, sociable, globetrotting millennial influencer who can hold their own when it comes to snow sports: “… must be able to ski and/or snowboard and must love apres, mingling with locals and documenting new experiences.”
To apply, job seekers have until Oct 15, 2018 to submit a video application explaining in 60 seconds or under why they should be chosen. The job posting is to promote the Epic Pass, an international pass that is valid at 65 ski resorts around the world.
