Just apply at a bunch of places and hope for the best....

You can take a look around at the properties, but you don't really have to come all the way out here to look for a job. All the hiring goes through HR now and you can do all that stuff online.

You also might be interested in the fact that there are quite a few people out here from Foxwoods and Mohegan already. Who knows, maybe 1 of them could get you some inside info...
