The job fair is a great opportunity to get a jump-start on the season, get all of the boring formalities out of the way, and start the fun!

If you haven't worked for the park before (or even if you have!), and you are curious about the different positions, the Job Fair is a great way to get to speak to representatives from the different departments and see which one fits you best!

Just in case anyone wants to know, the Safari jobs are most likely Gate Guards. Which isn't a bad position, but not the most exciting probably either. You will spend your days standing at one of the gates, waving to people who drive by, and closing the gates if animals who shouldn't move between sections get too close.

But hey, if you are one of those people who really want a nice suntan look no farther! Plus you get to stare at animals all day, who are probably better tempered than most park guests.
