We update our resume after every position is finished, indicate the areas of the country we’re interested in for a season and then pretty much relax. There are so many more job listings here at Workamper.com. We can sort by region, instead of looking randomly through facebook pages. We get notifications when our resume has been viewed, and have been contacted regularly with opportunities around the country. We like the ease of it and look at it as an investment that frees up time for us to focus on other things.

To the staff at Workamper News, my wife and I just wanted to once again tell you how pleased with what we have been able to accomplish toward our dreams since joining back in early Spring of this year. As I had written to you before, after becoming a member and posting our resume, we were offered a position within a few days. During this season we have gained invaluable Workamper experience and knowledge that we have used to keep our resumes up to date. We quickly learned that it's never to early to start looking ahead to the next season or position available. As you advised, after sending a resume, we followed up with a call to the possible employer just to touch base and make sure they received it. By doing the follow-up call, we were given the chance to do a phone interview right away. After calling, we received an offer for a winter position for this year in a warmer climate, as well as a job already secured for the Spring/Summer/Fall 2024 season in the beautiful Smoky Mountains of Tennessee. Both positions were possible because of keeping an eye on the Hotline Jobs postings each day and sending our resumes! Thank you again for the wonderful organization you have, and thank you again for being a part of our dream after retirement.

- Workampers Roger & Shelia M.

We would definitely like to renew our Featured Employer website page ad. This ad has produced more applications than any other resource that we use, and I can’t thank you and your staff enough for your help designing it.

- Employer Find Outdoors

Thank you for doing such a wonderful job of helping most of us find, retain, and return to marvelous employers and adventures.  My husband and I began Workamping this year (2022).  We obtained our first two positions through Workamper News within the first week of searching.  We're half-way through our first position and have been asked to return next Fall!  We said, "Yes!"  This is fun!

Blessings,

- Workampers Peter & Luan M.

All these years after attending the 2012 Workamper Rendezvous I'm still learning and you're still helping! Time & money well spent!

- Workamper Hope F.

Thank you again for the wonderful opportunity to find such an amazing winter job. Private Chef at a private 100-year-old Duck Club in CA Delta. The season officially ends today and it was a blast.

- Workamper Kelley S.

I’ve let my membership expire because my husband and I have been so happy with our first Workamping job that we’re sticking with it indefinitely. 

We owe it to Workamper News for finding the opportunity in one of your Hotline emails back in June 2020. We had been thinking of trying Workamping for a few years, and always read the job listings with great interest. When we saw a camp hosting job listing at Mulberry Mountain Lodging and Events in NW Arkansas we jumped on it.

We are so grateful for our good fortune with the owners of our campground, who are just wonderful to work for. It’s hard to imagine that we’ll ever want to try Workamping anywhere else, but we’ll renew our membership if it ever happens!

Thanks for all you do to help and support people like us who love the Workamping lifestyle. 

Best wishes,

- Workamper Liza P.

I was very impressed with (WKN Team Member) Jamie’s customer service this morning. I sent an email with an urgent request to change some verbiage in the ad she had posted for me over the weekend. She updated the wording and got back to me to confirm within minutes.

Thank you for the fantastic customer service! It goes far.

- Employer Jessica, Parks Management Company

You guys are really great and I ‘sing your praises’ to all the full-timers, and future full-timers, we meet along the way!  Thanks so much for your speedy response to my concern and your positive response! 

- Workampers Rick and Marsha M.

We love the full-time RV life. Tom and I have been full-time for about 15 months - sold everything and loving experiences and people we are meeting. It is truly full-time freedom! We live in a 2020 NEWMAR Dutchstar 4081 and tow a jeep gladiator. Tom and I are NRVTA certified and registered techs. We are truly blessed and grateful for the chance to experience this Nomad life! This really began with the Workamper Rendevous a few years ago when we realized that this life is possible! A quote that I just saw in Letchworth State Park brings this home: “Be happy for this moment, for this moment is your life.”

- Workampers Mickey & Tom R.

We are finally doing it! We found several jobs listed in the latest edition of the Workamper News magazine, submitted our Awesome Applicants Resume to two different jobs for next October, and BOTH offered interviews. We corresponded by email with the one, and really found out it wasn’t quite what we wanted (Corps of Engineers). The second one wanted a phone interview, we both participated and were offered the job. The manager was a former Workamper, and was really knowledgeable about what we were looking for. She wanted us to take a week to think it over. We did and then accepted the following week.

We are headed to our FIRST WORKAMPER JOB at the Tropic Star RV Resort, Pharr, TX for October-March! We’ve got plenty of time to adjust our packing and travel plans. We set up a monthly check in with the manager to keep us in the loop over the summer. We will be working with Activities!

Can’t say enough positives about the knowledge we gained at 2019 Rendezvous, and the online Awesome Applicants Resume Builder and ALL the tools you provide and the work you do! Please extend our thank yous to the entire Heber Springs crew! Thank you all!

- New Workampers Madonna and Ron W.

WOW! We finally pulled the trigger on joining Workamper News. We are not fulltime yet and wanted to experience camp hosting or part-time volunteering at a small RV park to get our feet wet. We live in Minnesota and wanted to stay close to home so we could still work on getting the house ready to sell. Amazingly, we built our resume the evening before allowing it to be viewed by employers the next morning. By noon we had 3 looks! By 4 PM we had an email from a golf course/RV park wanting to do a phone interview the next day. After looking up this place 3 hours from home and really liking what we found, we accepted the interview. It went fabulous and we have our first Workamper position close to home and 3 days on/6 days off, FHU, laundry, free golf course membership, pontoon use when available with the possibility for summer work for the next few years. Couldn't be more perfect. We had planned to travel winters and home for the summers to enjoy family. What a God send. Thank you Workamper News! First gig paid for membership and much, much more within two days of pulling the trigger to join!

- New Workampers Lynn & Keith N.

I am excited to see how Workamper News moves forward. My grandmother was one of the few who didn't think we were crazy when we decided to go full-time with 2 kids, 2 Great Danes, and a 20 year old RV. In fact, she was the one who recommended Workamper News. We immediately hopped online and said wow, with their help we really can do this!!  We LOVE what you all are doing, and we can't thank you enough for your help.

- Workampers Heather & Ron B.

I have been dreaming of living full-time in an RV, traveling the country and Workamping as I go. Well, the dream is happening! Even with COVID issues, I managed to learn all I could about RV living, and in the process, I became an NRVTA Registered RV Technician and an NRVIA Certified RV Inspector; starting my own small business. I just purchased my RV and will be living in it full-time by the end of this month! In May, I will travel to Keystone, South Dakota (by way of Colorado to see my kids) where I have a Workamping job at a hotel/campground right near Mt. Rushmore! I’ll be able to keep my own business going there too.

The Dreamers' Journey course was the start of my own journey and being in this group has given me so much encouragement! I want to encourage any of you who have dreams to chase them! I have no guarantee that things will be all sunshine and roses during my adventure, but I am willing to take that chance. I don’t want to wonder in 10 years what could have been if I didn’t at least try! I’m chasing my dreams!

I recently signed up for Workamper News. I am so impressed with the website and all the people that have helped me. Your team is awesome!

- Workamper Darrell C.

We’ve found all of our favorite gigs through Workamper News, but the one story I like to tell people is regarding our Awesome Applicants Resume.  Our online resume has landed us various “surprise” job offers over the years.  Rene once got a phone call out of the blue from a campground owner of various parks. He said you guys look great, I want you to come work with me, 2 days a week - you’d be my special projects team.  And it was one of those great jobs. We worked at an RV park but we didn’t do one of the “typical” RV park jobs. And it was because he found our resume at Workamper.com

- Workamper Jim N.

It’s been interesting watching the evolution of Workamping through the years and the number of people who know about it now.  There’s a lot of info out there about Workamping and how to get a job and places to look for them…but one thing that makes Workamper News stand out is the support that’s there.

When you get a job or even an interview through an advertiser at Workamper News - there’s this expectation and there’s already a relationship there.  You have this Employer who understands the value of Workamper News, and you do too.

I’ve looked at jobs various other ways and none of them have matched what we’ve found through Workamper News.

We posted our Awesome Applicants Resume about 8 or 10 days ago. TWO days later, we had our first amazing job offer. As of now, we are booked through January 2, 2022. Without Workamper News, this would have not been possible. Were we desperate to land a job? Absolutely not. The offers have come as a sweet surprise. Thank you, Workamper News.

- Workamper Gregory E.

Just wanted to reach out and say how much the information on the site has helped us as we move closer to our Workamper life.  We are still 6 mos to a year away, but getting there. We are so looking forward to it. We have talked about doing this our entire 30-plus years of marriage. Now we are putting the pieces together.  Just bought the truck; we need to haul a fifth wheel.  Slowly liquidating our 3,500 sq ft home, getting it ready to sell. I think our puppies are even excited about it once again. Please keep the info coming. Thank you!

- Dreamer Guy E.

Just a very brief note to tell you folks how great you are and what a wonderful service you provide to those of us who choose to be full-timers and do a little work!  I follow-up on each and every post you send out!  Some are ‘dream jobs’, and as you would expect, some aren’t really that great for me. So, here’s hoping that we find good spots for the Fall/Winter and Spring/Summer of 2021 through our participation with Workamper.com.  I’m on-the-hunt!  Y’all are just Super-Duper!  Keep up the excellent work that you do! BTW:  I am always referring you guys to other full-timers, or future full-timers, as the place to go to find the best spots!!

- Workamper Rick M.

[Hotline ad was posted for about 2 hours.]  WOW!! We already have entertained 4 applicants!! And have hired our new Workamper! You guys are off-the-charts effective in what you do, and that is you make life so much easier for us!! Thank you SO MUCH!! Ya'll ROCK!!

- Employers Dann & Nora, Kings Road RV Park in Texas

I've been receiving the helpful emails, following your Instagram account, listening to the Podcast, and following all the website info. You guys are a great resource! We are still in the dreaming phase...for now! All this information you provide, will surely move our timeline up!

- Dreamer Devyn A.

Thank you for all the information and resources you provide. My husband and I are trying to decide if/when we want to RV full-time. I’ve listened to your podcasts and always find some new information or insights that will help us make our decision.

- Future Workamper Megan R.

I just wanted to let you and the rest of the Workamper crew there in Heber Springs that I landed a job for next summer...will be working for the Fun Valley Family Resort in Southfork, CO...will be working from May till Sept-maybe Oct..so I just wanted to let you guys know what's been going on AND A BIG SHOUT-OUT to ALL of you there at the office for helping me with my resume and making me look good to perspective employers...to all of you and your staff, Merry Christmas!

- Workamper Bill M.

I had a wonderful job-finding experience basically due to the training Workamper provided and the knowledge I gained. Once I applied that knowledge, I am proud to say I was hired for my first Workamping job starting in May after one month of utilizing the steps. Thank you for a wonderful organization that understands full-time RVing.

- Workamper Connie I.

Workamper News works!  I updated my resume 2x in last 2 weeks so it stayed near the top. Got a great, in writing, detailed job offer to work at a five star lodge on its own 10 acres just 14 miles from western gate of Glacier National Park! The owners also readily answered all my follow up questions, again in writing. I'm only on my third year fulltime. I did everything suggested by Workamper News.  I'm a single woman and hear always how tough it is to find good paying work in great places.  Second year in a row I've scored a great, season-long gig near a national park or national lakeshore destination...FHU of course, all hours paid for...free wifi and laundry...walk to work..everything I wanted and to see Glacier National Park too!

- Workamper Aleut T.

What an amazing, personal follow-up it is for you all to send a hand-written card welcoming us into Workamper.com as Diamond Members!  That’s a super way to establish communication and to show that “you care” about us!  Wonderful idea!

We love the info you email to us and we are continually sharing the Workamper News with potential RV full-timers.

Keep up the good work…

- Workampers Rich n’ Marsha M.

Workamper News has a lot of great information no matter your dream job, and information that can help you achieve your dream.

- Workamper Juanita C.

I had the free membership when I was researching. I got my RV and traveled for a while and then I wanted more stability. I upgraded to a paid membership and made a resume. It was so easy! It’s all laid out in easy steps. You get to pick what states you would like and if you want to just get hookups, or also get paid. I posted a free “situation wanted” ad and in days I had calls from several employers. I had so many offers that I got to pick the one that felt right for me. Now I’m living in a gorgeous campground in the Smoky Mountains and I have my dream job that never feels like “work”! I can not recommend them enough! This was the best membership I have ever paid for, by far!

- Workamper Jodi E.

It is getting more real every day! Today I picked up my used travel trailer from the local dealer. The orientation was much more overwhelming than expected, but I got it home and I am in my house eating ice cream and taking a break from reality...  Tomorrow I have my first Workamper phone interview with Xanterra, one of the concessionaires for national parks. (Making and sending a resume through Workamper News is one of the easiest parts of this process; thanks Workamper News!)

- (soon-to-be) Workamper Becky P.

I'm thankful that when we decided to do this we weren't left to our own devices! :-) We had resources and help available to us!! I'm thankful we are able to be a part of this great organization helping us to do what we love!!

- Workamper Amy W.

My third week of my first Workamping experience has come to an end. Luckily, I have 5 more weeks!  I was hesitant as a single female to take on this challenge, but I am thoroughly enjoying it. I came in during the Fall shoulder season and am being a utility player, learning and working in a camp store, the "snack shack", and the office. All my colleagues have been extremely helpful and welcomed me into the campground family. I'm living in my 28' Class C without slides with no issues. My advice to others would be to take the risk...you'll never know if it's for you unless you try.  I'm thankful for every moment.

- Workamper Audrey E.

What an excellent way for people to travel and is a second career for some.

I put a resume together after trying to find out what I really wanted to do. I was a nurse in the ER for a couple decades and am now enjoying the freedom that I've always set as my goal. Loved to travel, but not much opportunity for 20 years.

I was so busy with my career, raising my boys, and once the last son was graduating, I put the house up for sale. Bought our RV, flew from MN to CA and took a month coming back. I knew this was for me.

My employer actually found us via our Awesome Applicants Resume and sent me an email with an invitation to come join the resort they own in Kabetogama National Forest. We had about 20 other invites, but the others really didn't fit my idea of a good time. This couple has owned Northern Lights Resort 4 years now and have had many tough blows with weather, employees not showing up, and trying to maintain this beautiful resort. We made it here May 1 and today, it's still a good fit. The work is hard, however, we helped pull it all together with them and a second Workamper couple. The sunsets, family feel to the resort, and smiles on the guests' faces make all that work and effort seem like nothing. And the fishing...just saying.

- Workamper Diana B.

My husband and I were Workampers for almost 20 years!! LOVED every minute of it!! We worked in some really great places and in some not so great places. We feel that some employers try to take advantage of the less expensive labor of a Workamper, because, let's face it, we don't do it to get rich in money. We did it to get rich with memories, and it worked!! We belonged to Workamper News most of that time, and NEVER had a problem finding a job anywhere we wanted to go. It is well worth the few $ it costs per year. Thank you Workamper News for all the wonderful memories!!!

- Workamper Beth

As a former business owner, I know how quick people are to complain, but compliments are rare. So "we" wanted to take a moment to post a great big THANK YOU.

We have been exploring the idea of Workamping for a few years and we finally took the plunge. The information we received from your website gave us an incredible edge and a huge insight to the things to do and not do in virtually every area of preparing for this adventure.

The forums have provided valuable info on everything from purchasing our RV to creating a resume that would attract employers, to knowing what to reasonably expect from an employer, to what to watch out for from employers.....the list goes on and on. We purchased our rig in early March and using your site had several "good" job offers by the middle of March. We started the position we chose on April 1st. It's the perfect mix for us of hours, perks, pay and location. The info we received from Workamper.com was invaluable in knowing what to ask and what to say in our interview process.

We are loving our new lifestyle!!! Our only regret is not doing it sooner. So THANK YOU and keep up the good work. To those of you out there considering a Workamping life - read, read read. The site has so much info to help prepare you for a great experience and to help you make the right choices.

- Workamper Kevin S.

Just wanted to say thank you for all the wonderful education from your staff over the years. We have spent our first summer working at the Tall Texan Campground and RV Park in Gunnison, CO. Couldn't have asked for a more wonderful experience. It all finally fell into place, after all the sweat and tears, and was worth it. Cindy's side-business is flourishing. You guys are the best!!  And we are looking forward to many more years of your guidance and support. Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!!  We love all of you guys!!  Say hi to everyone for us!

- Workampers Dave & Cindy

(After a members-only Ask the Expert webinar with theTexas RV Professor)

VERY VERY impressed with Terry Cooper and the WKN team! Thanks. Informative, friendly, non-condescending, and well done from an IT perspective. This means a lot to us. Keep up the good work.

- Workampers Bruce and Christine

We are new first-time Workampers who were concerned about getting a job for the winter.  We utilized your Awesome Applicants Resume Builder (in the spring), posted the resume on your website and emailed it to 12 campgrounds on Wednesday night who had advertised in your magazine or online. We received about 15 phone calls by the weekend and accepted our first Workamping position in AZ for the winter season on Sunday!  What a great service you provide; we received many compliments on the impressive resume.  Thanks so much for all you do.

- New Workampers Herb & Kathy

We did Workamping. Used Workamper News to find positions wherever we wanted to travel to: Minnesota, Maine, Texas, Alaska, New Mexico, Idaho - just to name a few. Sometimes we received our site and others we worked more hours for our site and pay. I call Workamper News the "Sears catalog" of fulltime RVing.

- Workamper Betty T.

I have sold Andersen's RV Park in Long Beach, WA.  Wanted to tell you all how much I have appreciated your help, patience, friendliness over the years (28 years for me).

Over the years, I hired lots of Workamper hosts.  I think I had about a 95% success rate.  Great folks...the people responsible for the wonderful
reviews the park got on Trip Advisor, etc.  You (Workamper News) have created and provide an excellent service for the campground/RVing world.

My thanks and best wishes to you ALL.

- Lorna, former RV park owner

(Less than 1 hour after the online Hotline ad was posted) The phone was ringing from the moment I talked with you.  Six applicants as of this moment.

(20 hours later) Oh my GOSH!  Response to the ad!  I have filled the positions and am being swamped on my email!  Can we shut it down?

- Employer Linda, Mustang Hollow Campground in Texas

Guess who got a job in less than 48 hours?! We did!

We think Workamper Discovery Days really prepared us for getting this job. The Employer had problems in the past with a couple quitting early on them and we were able to talk about the importance of commitment in a Workamper and such from your seminar. They are sending us a letter of agreement fashioned after the one on your website. And even though it happened so fast we were not able to fully use the Awesome Applicants Resume, we did fashion our resume after the sample you furnished. Just like you said in the seminars, we were honest about being full-time RVers for 5 weeks now, but conveying our enjoyment of people and the experience.

Thanks again guys,

- Workampers Bill & Mary Ann

Tom and I are now three weeks into our fulltime RV life and it is great! Tom retired from his job (and his 60+ mile commute each way) in the middle of April.  We updated our resume and started looking for positions on April 11th. Tom accepted a volunteer position in Georgia by the end of the month and we were on our way by Mother’s Day.  It all happened so fast! I still have my same fulltime job that I had back in Virginia. I am a RN and work from home/RV. 

We had been dreaming of this for a number of years and attended the Rendezvous in 2012. I have to say we learned so much in those 3+ days that we had the tools needed to put this plan in place. We will be back to Rendezvous, October 2014.  Can’t wait, there is still a lot we can learn.

As it turns out Tom has now accepted his “dream position” at a shooting complex in Nevada for next April. Winter will be in Mission, TX.

Thank you so much for helping us make our dream come true!

- Workampers Tom & Linda

Once again, we would like to thank you ALL for being there for us RV park owners by providing Workampers, plus incredible tools to help in this industry. Because of your company, we have three great Workampers for the summer ahead!

- Employers Peter & Dawn, GilGal Oasis RV Park

Thanks for the advertising reminder, but we are thrilled to have our wonderful Park Hosts coming back next year!!!  It is such a relief to have your service to provide a connection to exceptional people.  We will be installing another site in the next couple of years, and will be needing a third camp host then.  We will certainly advertise through Workamper News!

- Employer Julie, LCMC Office Manager

I placed my first ad for Workampers and I had over fifty calls. Ninety-eight percent of them were wonderfully qualified, so it was a very difficult choice to make. Thank you for the great services you provide.
