What are the working seasons in Switzerland?
This is one of the questions we ask ourselves a lot when choosing a date and place to choose to start or do seasons.

If you have thought about coming in the Winter season.
It is recommended to start submitting CVs from September/October, which is when they begin to form teams for the season. The season usually lasts about 5 to 6 months.
In winter, where there is the most work is in the mountains since the snow comes and many people go to the ski resorts, there are more than 200 ski resorts in Switzerland. And this season they are needing a lot of people to work in Hospitality.
If you have thought about coming in the Summer season.
It is recommended to start submitting CVs from April/May, which is when they begin to form teams for the season. The season usually lasts about 5 to 6 months.
In summer where there is the most work is in the cities and lakes since the heat comes and people have a preference for these places. And this season they are needing a lot of people to work in Hospitality, cleaning, the entire sector dedicated to Tourism. It is also the season when the most Construction employees are needed.
