How to get started - step four

Find job openings: Besides Workamper News, other sources of potential jobs include Caretaker Gazette and Coolworks.com. Other places to look are:

• Campground directories list potential employers.


• Temporary agencies have all types of work from general to professional.


• Specialized directories can help you find venues like fairs or flea markets to sell products.


• To work in a certain area, check with the Chamber of Commerce or Tourist Bureau for employers.


• RV magazines have want ads in their classified sections.


• Other Workampers are also good sources of job openings.

RV workers are in high demand and there are many openings. You should have no trouble finding a job. In fact, another way to find a job is to stop by and talk to potential employers.

They were offered jobs on the spot! This is actually quite common, so don't overlook this method. Jaimie
