“Seasonal recruitment goes far beyond the job itself. Not only is it a privilege to work at our New 7 Wonder of Nature, but it is also an opportunity to meet new people, grow, challenge yourself with something new and open the door to a career in the exciting, ever-expanding South African tourism industry. In fact, many of our full-time employees started out as seasonal staff.”
