1. Cold Calling
Cold calling remains a tried-and-true method for job hunting. While challenging, it’s an invaluable skill for securing work. Remember, every person you contact is a potential lead. Practice regularly, and you'll grow more comfortable and effective.
2. Attend Conferences and Meetings
Networking at NBAA (National Business Aviation Association) events is crucial. Attend gatherings where pilots of jets like the Global Express, G-V, and Falcon Jet 2000 congregate. NBAA membership provides access to a directory of companies and other resources.
Consider the annual NBAA Flight Attendant Conference to learn and network. However, weigh the benefits against the costs of attending.
3. Local Airport Events
Participate in seminars or events at your local airport, even if topics like de-icing don't excite you. These gatherings attract pilots and industry professionals, offering excellent networking opportunities. Always have copies of your resume and business cards on hand.
Getting involved with your local airport’s advisory board or community events can also help you make valuable connections.
4. Utilize the Internet
Search online for information related to business aviation and bookmark useful sites. The internet is an ever-growing resource for industry knowledge.
5. Join the Corporate Flight Attendant Community
This niche community, available at [corporateflyer.net](http://corporateflyer.net), offers resources for current and aspiring private flight attendants. The message boards are especially valuable, providing a space for networking and industry insights.
6. Explore Job Sites
Look for aviation jobs on sites like Skyjobs, Plane Jobs, AviaNation, and Climb to 350. My site, the Aviation Employment Board [aviationemploymentboard.net], offers job listings and is a part of the Corporate Flight Attendant Community.
Be cautious about paying for job site memberships, and compare listings between pay and free sites. Corporate flight attendant positions are rarely publicly advertised.
7. Consider Agencies
Agencies like AirCareCrews, Integrity Flight Crews, and Jet Professionals provide hiring services, though opportunities may be limited. Be prepared to pay a fee.
