How to Apply

Here is the procedure for applying for seasonal employment at both the Philmont Scout Ranch and Double H High Adventure Base:

1. Review the employment to be sure that you are eligible.
2. Download a Seasonal Staff Application (PDF)
3. Review the list of jobs in the various departments, indicate three preferences, and complete the entire application.
4. Develop a brief resumé, outlining your experience and qualifications for each of the positions you have selected.
5. Obtain at least one letter of recommendation from a member of your local council's professional staff, a teacher, a religious leader, or an employer. A reference form is included in the Seasonal Staff Application.
6. Send your application, resumé, and letter(s) of reference to Philmont.

Philmont will notify you when a decision is reached.

While you have a better opportunity for obtaining employment in a key staff position if you apply by October 1 of the previous year, applications are accepted at any time of the year undefined
