Hello

Currently, I am thinking of applying for a staff position in virtual airline.

Currently, I'm living in Monterey, CA and is able to access online in a matter of minutes.

  https://9apps.ooo/I'm also good with statistics and other works involving numbers, so if there are any

virtual airlines looking for a staff position with above characteristics, please leave a comment underneath.

Have you considered first finding a virtual airline that interests you, joining and taking part first?

What is your motivation for becoming a 'staff member' (read: volunteer) for an organisation you have so little interest in you don't even want to join it and take part in its activities? Presumably a shiny title to show off?

Think you need to pipe down mate...

He's just asking if there are any open staff positions in a VA. Should he join every VA and find out if they have staff positions?

My point is that any organisation looking to "hire" "staff" will naturally question the motivation of anyone who turns up effectively saying "I want to be in charge of something somewhere -- don't care where, or what really, just as long as I can be "staff"". I wouldn't touch them with a barge pole -- all it says to me is "I want a title".

If you want to be "staff" then yes, you should find a VA that you are interested in and passionate about and help them out. Because I can quite confidently say from long experience that the pay and hours are terrible and the effort and dedication required considerable, so unless you actually care about the organisation and making it better then the novelty very quickly wears off.

If you are still still looking for a staff role, I run Zulu Virtual Airlines and we are just starting out. If you want more of a hands on experience in starting a VA and want more control I highly suggest that you consider my offer. https://forms.gle/bKK3qVCcYqNXMNtE7
