Go to this link, read the job description, and email your resume in! Fantastic opportunity - especially if you want to stay in Utah. My friend was the most recent ATA and was recruited to a consulting company. The person before her now works for a water preservation government agency. This opportunity will not only teach you how to run a small, interesting town (where you can ski!), but you will rub shoulders with many people who are interested in the canyons, the environment, and the ski industry. APPLY TODAY!
