    Become a Club Manager Overseas
    Meet our man Danny O’Reilly, who has been an Overseas Resort Manager with Club 18-30 for the last 6 years. In total he has spent almost 10 years working overseas for Club 18-30, Sunset Holidays and Thomas Cook. How did you get your job? I went along to a walk-in interview that was being held at the Big Reunion in Butlins. Following this I was invited to a group interview in London and was then offered a place on the Club 18-30 Induction Course which is the final stage of the recruitment procedure. Unfortunately though, my University Finals were at exactly the same time so I was unable to attend the induction. Luckily the Club 18-30 Overseas Department suggested that as I had performed quite well in the two interviews if I call back following my exams in June their was the possibility...

    Magaluf – Is it the new Ibiza?
    Mallorca (or Majorca as most Brits call it) is the largest of the Balearic Islands and along with its sister islands of Menroca and Ibiza, lies in the Mediterranean Sea off the south east coast of mainland Spain. Magaluf, on the south west side of the island is quickly developing a reputation as being one of the greatest party places on the continent. For years Ibiza was considered to be the best place to indulge in night time pleasures, however, over the past summers Magaluf has been closing the gap and could now be the number one destination for not only hedonistic holidays in club land, but also to work. Work at a Club on Mallorca There are literally hundreds of bars, clubs and restaurants along the strip and they are constantly looking, if not relying on Brits to come over and work. Af...

    A Working Holiday in San Antonio, Ibiza
    If you’re looking for fun-in-the-sun then consider following the lead of Hayley Hurst, a 25-year old from London. Hurst has been on a long-term holiday working at CafĂ© Mambo on the Sunset strip in San Antonio, Ibiza. Why did you choose to work in Ibiza? I’ve been on holiday here with my best friend for the last 5 years. Before this I’d holidayed in Ayia Napa and various places with friends but nowhere compares to the White Isle.

I wanted to be part of the lifestyle, n...
