Referral Program Terminology    

  • “Referring” employee (the referrer) current employee who is referring someone to work at one of our North American resorts.    

  • “Referred” employee: new employee that identifies on their application who referred them.  

Park City Limited Time Referral Program Requirements: All terms and conditions listed below must be met to qualify for the Park City referral bonus.  Terms and conditions are subject to change.    

 The Referring Employee:      

  • Non-Leadership employee that are active employees when the referral bonus is paid out.    

  • SIS Employees are encouraged to refer prospective candidates - the bonus will be paid during the season. 

The Referred Employee:     

  • Prior employees that worked for us more than a year ago are eligible but need to be successful at the hiring process to meet the remaining requirements

  • Must be an active instructor the date the referral bonus is paid out.

  • Application process:

    • Must apply through the Vail Resorts Career site  

    • The referred employee MUST enter YOUR 6-digit Employee Identification Digit (EID) on the application!

    • If the referring employee’s ID is missing on application, the referral is considered incomplete and therefore not valid to receive the bonus.

  • This is the only process for entering qualifying referrals for the bonus payout.  

Park City Referral Payout Details: 

If all terms are met, the Park City referring employee will receive a bonus in two payments. Please review chart below: 

Bonuses are paid by SSBS and are included in the referring employee’s paycheck within three weeks of each milestone. If the referred employee leaves before the first 30 days, no bonus is paid; if they leave prior to the FT/PT second payout requirements above, only the first payment is issued.  

All payouts are monitored and approved via EpicEmployee. If you received a notification that your referral was denied, please check the associated request for an explanation.
