The Working Holiday program gives you the opportunity to gain valuable work experience, improve your language skills, experience Canadian culture and explore Canada.
A visa for the program enables you to live, work and travel in Canada for up to one year. You can obtain a Working Holiday Canada visa only once in your lifetime and the number of visas for the Czech Republic is limited.
We were the only company sending its first clients to work at the Vancouver Olympics. Since then, more than 2,000 clients have traveled with Czech-us and they have all enjoyed a year – or maybe more – in Canada.
If you appreciate mountains, nature and peace, you will definitely choose from our mountain resorts. Do you prefer big city life? We can arrange your stay in Vancouver.
Most of our participants take advantage of our job search assistance. We will help you find a job from our extensive database of contacts based on your needs, experience and language skills.
You can admire the beauty of Canadian nature from somewhere other than your living room couch in the Czech Republic! We offer jobs in resorts with breathtaking surroundings, friendly Canadians and tourists from all around the world. Program participants usually work in hotels located in mountain towns such as Jasper, Banff, Panorama, and Canmore.
We offer positions in the hospitality industry (hotels and restaurants), but you can also work for ski resorts such as Panorama. Your position will depend on your previous work experience and your level of English.
Most employers also provide staff with accommodation, which is a great advantage of this program.
We host an annual Job Fair where you can meet employers from Canadian mountain resorts and cities. Employers choose their employees on the basis of a personal interview in Prague. Learn more about JobFair Canada.
We can set up an online interview with an employer in Canada. You’re going to Canada with a secured job.
This option allows you to work in larger cities, especially in Olympic Vancouver and Toronto. Jobs are usually offered in cleaning companies and also in construction companies.
If you have experience in construction, are physically fit and would like to work outdoors, this program option is the perfect fit for you. You can work on construction sites and repair roofs.
The hourly wage depends on your employer and your job offer. In general, every employer follows the minimum wage. If you work in resorts, you also have other benefits, such as canoe hire, the opportunity to visit sports centers, rafting, ski passes, or a financial bonus at the end of the season.
It is likely that your wage will be higher than the minimum wage or increase during your stay.
