Cedar Fair parks operate seasonally on schedules that match the regional travel patterns of our guests. Therefore, we need more staff during busy travel times such as summer months, weekends, and holiday seasons. The only exception is Knott’s Berry Farm, which operates year round.

Many of our positions do not require a resume to apply.

We want to provide as many options as possible to make it easy for you to apply. You can choose to apply with a New Resume/CV or with a social media profile such as LinkedIn or Facebook. The application will pull information from these sources for you to review for accuracy. You can also opt to complete the application without using either of these functions.

Absolutely! You can choose to save your application at any point by clicking the “Save for Later” option at the bottom of the online application.

You will be asked to create a username and password at the beginning of the application process. You will use this information to log back in to complete your application, as well as to monitor the status of your application. We recommend storing your username and password in a safe place for easy access.

You can log back in at any time to view your “applicant dashboard” which will indicate that your application has been received.

If the job you seek is not currently available, you can save your search settings as a “Job Agent.” Setting up a Job Agent will allow us to send you an email every time a new opening matches your search criteria.

Upon applying, your application is directed to the hiring team. They will review your application as quickly as possible. You can always check the status of your application by logging in to your applicant dashboard.

For seasonal positions, it is most common to expect one phone interview and one in-person group interview. However, some positions or applicants may require additional follow-up interviews. All leadership and year-round positions require an initial phone interview and a number of in-person interviews.
