Work Where Everyone Comes to Play
Imagine clocking in to the sound of racing go-karts, laughing families and the salty breeze rolling in from the Atlantic. As an Attraction Attendant at Motor World Virginia Beach, you’ll be at the heart of one of Virginia’s most loved amusement destinations – a sprawling park packed with go-kart tracks, thrill rides, water attractions and arcade games. This is the kind of Work & Travel USA job you’ll be telling stories about for years.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Welcoming guests to your assigned ride or attraction with energy and a big smile
- Explaining safety rules clearly and making sure every rider is properly secured
- Operating ride controls, loading and unloading guests, and keeping lines moving smoothly
- Checking height and safety requirements and performing basic ride checks
- Keeping your attraction area clean, tidy and photo-ready
- Answering guest questions about the park, tickets and directions
- Working as part of an international team of students from around the world
What We’re Looking For
- University students aged 18–25 on a J-1 Work & Travel USA visa
- Conversational English – you’ll be talking with guests all day
- A friendly, outgoing personality and a strong sense of responsibility (safety comes first!)
- Comfort working outdoors, standing for long periods in warm summer weather
- Flexibility to work weekends, evenings and holidays – that’s when the park comes alive
- A team-player attitude and a genuine desire to make people’s day better
Benefits of the Job
Beyond the paycheck, you’ll gain real customer-service experience with an American employer, improve your English every single shift, build a network of friends from a dozen countries, and enjoy the perks of working in an amusement park. Many students return home with stronger communication skills, a boosted CV and a summer they’d relive in a heartbeat.
