Maybe you can lodge a new application for your prefered base? Previously when I applied to Virgin Blue and V Australia they called me to ask which one I wanted to apply for, as you cannot apply for 2 at once. I presume they will do the same with base preference.

good luck to all of us.

Melbn based CC
Hi everyone, hope everyone is well and happy!!
Just a question about the application for VA. Today I got invited to the assessment day in Melb next week. But I have heard from other VA applicants that there is a online test you have to do. Does anyone know what stage thats in and whether or not you have to get 100% in it to be considered????!!
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Marly I have my fingers and toes crossed for you!! I am so nervous. I REALLY hope I haven't made a mistake in withdrawing my old application and submitting one on the new site. Someone said that if you do that then your application isn't valid for 12 months!! I guess as long as we weren't a definite yes or no from the first one, then it should be okay.... good luck, I wish everyone all the very best for tomorrow

Mine was on the new site - I too withdrew from the old & re-submitted to the new. But I reakon my "unsuccessful" was from withdrawing an application that made it to the AD back in August - I had not idea there was a 12mth wait to re-submit - nice to be informed by Virgin? 
Looks like it's a ground job for me
I think that the unsuccessful e-mails were sent today & successful ones will go out tomorrow - good luck all hope the AD goes well. Keep us informed of how you all go.
Now I got to keep positive & hope that I have got the job with Qantas on the ground that I applied for in October!!!

im not sure if you withdraw and re-submit your application you need to wait 12 months... im sure you only have to wait 12 month before re-applying if you have been unsuccsessful? can anyone clarify this?
i plan on contacting virgin about this tomorrow regarding this as i cant change my base prefence on the new system without withdrawing my app and putting in a whole new one and i dont think thats how it is intended if thats the case with needing to wait 12 months....

nbailey073,
That is the logical answer - that you actually need to be either successful or unsuccessful before you are eligible to re-apply again in 12 months time. Otherwise that would just be stupid! - it's an admin error. Hardly fair at all, but I doubt virgin would disadvantage people so quickly like that. I'll be sure to let you know IF I hear anything tomorrow. Good luck, it really is great to see all of us so passionate and motivated about a job
pat on the back just for that! Sleep well guys

Just checked mine and it says application unsuccessful , oh well will try again when they advertise again. Good things come to those who wait. Stay strong everyone dreams come true just believe in your self. If you don't succeed the first time try try again.

Ok now I feel sick haha everyone from melbourne has heard but me! Guess it's still pretty early though. Congrats you guys 
Must be so exciting. And Marly please don't give up, remember you have applied for all those other ones you might get a nice surprise in the new year. And someone as determined as you will always succeed sooner or later. All the very very best

Had applied to both old & new and I got unsuccessful from both bfound and new system - talk about rub salt into the wound 
Marly don't give up I know of a few current virgin crew members who had flight attendant expereince (inc myself) that got declined
before actually getting the job.
Try skywest (although they work hard & hours are sometimes long) they or will soon become part of the virgin group? It could be a step in the right direction or try Cobham? Marly pm me if you need some insight into skywest or Cohbam (worked for both). Like me maybe it's just not our time with Virgin yet!!

Shelbs keep trying it took me 4 goes to get in and now I am trying to go back.
Skywest will not become part of Virgin. Whats happening is that Virgin have leased some of their ATR aircraft in a 10 year deal. ATR's are painted in Virgin livery and the crew wear Virgin uniform but have Skywest name badge and wings. The EBA is almost the same as the Virgin EBA.
