As Holiday World & Splashin’ Safari fast approach the start of the summer travel season, officials will host Open Interviews for 200 seasonal positions on Friday, May 6, 2016.
“We’re looking for friendly and energetic individuals who want to help families enjoy their vacations with us,” says Holiday World & Splashin’ Safari President Matt Eckert. “We need ride operators, lifeguards, bus drivers, and sweepers, plus staff for grounds and foods.”
Eckert says retirees and other adults seeking seasonal employment are encouraged to apply. “In addition to providing a great first job for teens, we have a great mix of retirees and other adults who enjoy working with us a few days a week,” he says. “We offer a lot of flexibility in our scheduling.”
Seasonal benefits include:
- a personal Season Pass,
- park food and merchandise discounts,
- free soft drinks,
- employee parties,
- incentive and awards programs,
- free admission to other parks,
- plus the opportunity to earn tickets for friends and family, FitBits, iPads, gift cards, and more.
This season, the park again offers an Employee Transportation Program for seasonal employees who would not otherwise have a ride to work. Available at a nominal fee, bus rides are offered from Owensboro (as well as Evansville, Newburgh, Haubstadt, Huntingburg, Boonville, and Tell City, Indiana).
Friday’s open interviews will take place from 4 – 8 p.m. CDT; applicants should park in the Employee Parking Lot on Highway 162.
