Read post number three before you submit an application, failure to do so will result in your application not even being considered.

I am looking for a Co-Owner who will also function as my assistant. Not both a Co-Owner and an Assistant. Please read the whole application thoroughly.

Hello everyone, I am Zain Larnia, owner and founder of ZL Systems. ZL Systems is aiming for a rebirth. It has always been a small company specializing in role play goods, but I'm aiming for it to get bigger and better., and perhaps maybe even expand outside of role play products. After a three month hiatus I have decided I want to hire a co-owner, who will also be my assistant, to help out with developing products, ideas, and the overall functions of the business. I am looking for a person who is reliable, and they will be expected to contribute ideas and aid with the development of products, keep in mind this is a long term serious commitment. People who are skilled in Second Life are the most valuable, so they will have the best chance of getting the position, the longer they've been in Second Life might also play a role in the choosing.

It is all preferable that the person getting the position live in America, or any country whos time zone isn't extremely far off. We will be working diligently on establishing the company, preparing products, preparing advertisements, until kick-off day, the grand reopening of ZL Systems. The date for kick-off day will not be made public, it will be only be known to myself and whoever is hired. These upcoming weeks up until kick-off day will be very busy, and due to constraints in my real life you will be responsible for doing a lot of this work.

There is one major goal I am setting for the rebirth of ZL Systems. The original run of the company was expensive, more expensive than a small company needed to start up. Due to this, my co-owner/assistant will be paid L$500 every two weeks until kick-off day. After that 25% to 50% of all wages earned could be sent to you. There is a section on the application for this. Really, salary is a matter which will need to be discussed in your interview. Now that all that has been said. Please complete the application below. At the end of the application are instructions on where it needs to be turned in.

Thank You,
Zain Larnia

When you are done with this application, save a notecard and drop it into the inventory of Zain Larnia. Alternatively, you could stop directly by the corporate office at the slurl below. Simply place your application in the silver drop box outside of the door. Though you may go to drop off your applications, visits inside of the ZL Systems Corporate Office are by an appointment basis only. Once your application is received, if you are thought to be qualified you will be notified and asked to set an appointment time. Once the time for your appointment comes you will come back to the ZL Systems Corporate Office and begin your in person interview. Attire for employees will be covered if you are hired, but for the interview, I recommend dressing professionally.

As of right now depending on the number of applicants received, the application process will be open from one to two weeks. I will update the post to reflect when it will end.

At this time I have decided that I am going to let the application process run until September 20th, 2009 which is exactly two weeks from the time that this position was posted. Any other extensions of the deadline will be posted here. Though as of right now unless there is a severe lack of applicants, the deadline is as posted.

Alright perhaps I didn't clarify this well enough, though I feel I did. I am NOT looking for a co-owner AND an assistant. I am looking for a co-owner who will ALSO be my assistant. I am just clarifying this due to some applications I have received.

Also, if you apply, your resume is a nice addition, but please fill out the application that I have provided. I didn't create it just for it to look pretty. If you're going to send me a resume send it in addition to the application. My first major red flag that someone can't follow directions is when I get someone who simply does not do the application. As I said before, this is a serious position and if you cannot follow directions and do a simple application, then perhaps you should not be applying at ZL Systems.

Thanks, Zain Larnia
