This is something I came across from the EFtours website for anyone interested in DC work .. this could lead to other things also the website has plenty of openings in the Boston area .. they deal primarily with students. I have an interview with then in NOV. but my interview is in ROME... yeahhhhhhhhhh They have needs for tour Directors in Europe but in most cases you have to apply in the country that they need Tour Directors for .
In any case this is the info I got from them
Do you want to help students have an unforgettable class trip to Washington D.C. during the 2009 Presidential Inauguration? EF is recruiting Tour Directors for our Smithsonian Student Travel tours to DC in January 2009! As an EF Tour Director you will have the opportunity to lead a group of students and their teachers on Smithsonian Student Travel tours through DC during this. Tour Directors are responsible to reconfirm all pre-booked tour arrangements, manage the tour itinerary, supervise the tour logistics (i.e. hotel check-in and activity coordination), give interesting and educational coach commentaries, control on-tour payments and paperwork, lead walking tours, offer suggestions for and organize free-time activities, solve on-the-spot problems, and upload photos and captions daily for EF’s state of the art TourLink service. You must be knowledgeable about the DC area and major sights, as well as the history, culture and current developments (please note that we book local DC city guides to lead a 4-hour guided sightseeing tour of DC) Tour Directors work with EF as independent contractors. Inauguration tours require a commitment to work during the following dates: January 17th – 21st, 2009. Training days will be provided in the fall and early winter. Additional tour directing opportunities are available during March, April, May and June in DC, as well as other major east coast cities. Interested candidates should email their resume and cover letter to ea.tourdirectors@ef.com. Additional details and a copy of our application form will be sent to all inquiries.

If anyone has any other job opportunities we should post them here for all .. I understand its hard to share jobs available until we get one of our own lol but hey it all comes around ..
