Holiday World to Host Hiring Events This Weekend for 2022 Season

Santa Claus — Holiday World & Splashin’ Safari officials will interview more than 600 candidates over the phone this weekend for Seasonal positions in the 2022 season. 

The combination theme and water park has more than 2,200 positions open this year, and wages for those 18 and older start at $13 an hour.

The park is hosting two Virtual Hiring Event weekends, where prospective Team Members will have 15-minute phone interviews with park management, where they are encouraged to ask questions and learn more about working for Holiday World & Splashin’ Safari. Most phone interviews will be held March 4-6, and March 18-20, but the park will also host in-person hiring events in Evansville and Owensboro, where prospective Team Members can apply, interview, and be hired on the spot if they bring proper identification. 

“We are hiring ride operators, lifeguards, and sweepers, plus staff for admissions, grounds, shops, games, and foods. We’re like a small city – and have quite a variety of jobs available,” says President Matt Eckert. “We’ve made the hiring process easier than ever with phone interviews and online paperwork, however, that means that some departments fill up even faster, so prospective Team Members won’t want to wait until our second hiring event.”

Many departments fill up quickly, so interested candidates should visit HolidayWorldJobs.com as soon as possible to fill out an application and set up their time for a phone interview.

Holiday World already offers several job perks for seasonal Team Members including:

• $13 starting wage for individuals 18 and older
