CLM Jobs

We are looking at camp host jobs listed with CLM Services next summer. Anyone have information about this company that would be helpful if we are offered a campground with them. This would be our first Camp Host placement and don't know much about it. thanks :)

  • If they gave me 40 hours work and 25 hours pay, they would get 25 hours of work and I would choose which work I thought was the most important.
  • Yes, it's a paid job and for the summer season, which is ok. Thank you for the comments on # of hours and how much they want done, I will check into that. It is a small campground, no ice or wood and only a couple of potty's. :)
  • I have not worked for this company, but did work for another that operates in the same way. Ask about the hours. They typically tell you they will pay for example 25 hrs per week, but assign lawn mowing, trimming, cleaning bath houses, cleaning sites, checking in campers, selling wood, ice, collection of fees the paperwork required etc and it's up to you to try to get it all done in the allotted number of hours. If it takes you more hours, they don't usually pay you for anything over the number of hours they decided it would take. So, if you really worked 35 hours, you will be paid for the 25 only. We decided we did not like this arrangement as these are companies that are out to make a profit, and they are profiting from their employees extra labor hours with no return to the employee. This company may be different, but from talking to many people, they all operate in somewhat the same way. It's all in the wording of the work agreement - read it carefully.
  • Arw you looking for paid positions? They probably require a whole season. Personally we are hosting with Oregon State Parks and love it. Only require a one month stay, so if there are problems for what ever reason you can leave pretty fast.
