Are there any ski hills open in Europe in May? Im doing and internship program for school from may 7th till the 26th, and basically i can do whatever i want and go whereever, and i want to take a job working at a ski hill or being an instructor for the time, but are there any good mountains open around this time? If so where, and when does the season start/end ?

There are quite a few ski "hills" (I wouldn't call them that as they are huge ass mountains), but i think you will be hard pressed to find any job there for such a short period of time. Instructing will only be going on a bare minimum (there aren't many people), but it is still your best bet. Working on lifts is probably not an option, as they will have all their staff on from the winter season. Why not just bum it and ski, especially places like Kaunertal, Val Senales, Hintertux, Kitzsteinhorn and Stubai have epic conditions at this time, and you might even get some pow if you're real lucky!

Check Hintertux. It's your best bet for skiing in may.
