Well as far as my experience i have had an interview at an airl;ine company and it was kinda open house day so the interviewer just asked me about my occupation and the reason i've applied for that company.that's all and asked mne to wait for a furthur call to fix another interview and they never asked so far LOL.So if anyone knows anything about that could plz send me on my mail like what r the basics to get hired cos i've always been dreamin of bein a flight attendant.Thank u

Learning to spell might help.

shamoun i guess that your looking for a job too, huh?? same over here my first time...

Yes sky high i am lookin for my dream job which is to be a flight attendant.That's write

I see... well me its my dream job too to be in the air to fulfill my dreams so that's why I'm going to apply but I'm scared because they might expect something from me that I don't have.. So tell me what happen on your first interview? what did they ask you?

Alright sure sky high, it' my pleasure to help anyone as long as i could,anyway yes my interview was kinda weird u know it wasn't like exactly interview no it was just like open house day like there were alot of applicants there just to hand over the resumes because they had asked us to bring our resumes and 2 recent formal attire photos.Anyway i went there and i waited for my turn and when my turn came i applied.The interviewer asked me about my current occupation, then scanned my resume then looked at me then she said thank u.That all.to be honest it wasn't 100% interview cos the had told us to expect a call from them for another interview and they never called me so far.All i am tryin to tell u sky high is this, do not feel afraid or scared of anything just be yourself and be confident, that's all i could advice u at the first interview cos it's all about them not about u.They decide LOL.That's my e mail address anyway if u wanna contact me it's okay, i would like to discuss everything about this job with poeople who r interested [Edited by Host] Contact info deleted

hi,

I applied at CAL 5 times now and i fit perfectly with the image looks dress, tall dark and handsome. I made it to the 3rd and final interview but was told they would email me...they did not take me. I am in awe as to their hiring procedure.
what is it with CAL? If i can get hired by UNITED which is the #2 airline in the world, why cant i at the #5?
please someone let me know waz up at CAL?

andrew,

Thanks so much! I tried with CAL 5times! On the 4th time I made it to the final panel interview where they did not accept me. I am starting to believe something is not right with their hiring process. You would hve thought i would have gotten it.
Thanks anyway! What airline?
Good luck and hope to see you in the skys!.

Hey Andrew, I have an interview with Compass at the end of the month. Can you tell me how they go about it? Group interview, one on one? Some of the questions they ask? Is it laid back, or uptight?

Sorry for the million questions. I really would love to work for them, i love the fact that they are just starting out this year, and are doing pretty well.

Hi to all you,
do you know The Emirates Airline company?
An interview for flight attendants in 3 weeks is coming up and i am looking for best tips to prepare myself for the test and the interview.
Can you share with me some interview experience, if any about this issue? Thanks. Nick

Hi,

Be Happy and always smile. Please stress your customer service skills and abilities. Always put customers first and be extra positive. tell them this is passion for you and a career for you...not just a job. If relocation and salary comes up, tell them no problem, there is no challenges whatsoever.

Good luck!!!!

p.s: try to dress as much like them as possible. This will give them a first ipmression as you being a FA alrdy!!

I did just that a week ago and was employed by Continental.

See ya...let me know

hi,
sure, i will let u know when the total event - recruiting days is over,
it seems to be not so hard to get the job, but i have to rely on my skills and to be honest. Get dressed as much like them as possible is a good advice for first impression. thanks my friend!

I have an interview with republic airways. Does anyone know if its in a group or individually?? What kind of questions to expect?? Any tips Please?

hey david its a one on one interview

Miss Crystal in Chicago, Illinois said: hey david its a one on one interview

HI Crystal, thanks for your comment. Any suggestions that can hel me? Are you a flight attendant?

i had gotten hired to work for republic airways. They are pretty tough and not so organized i got my packet in the mail to study the questions just 2 or 3 days before i was leaving just know be prepared for hard work and lots of studying best advice its good to make friends but its best to keep to your self that way you can be able to study... instead of parting. also how it goes with the company you get a chance if you fail a test to take it again, but you better pass or you'll get sent home. Word of advice when they ask you what company you would rather work for go with republic there are 3 copmanys Chataqua,Republic,Shuttle america. I wasnt so lucky i got chataqua we had test every day and had a few hrs to study once we got to our rooms to be at school the next morning to get a 100 question test the next morning....yes they have test everyday unlike republic who have it every other day and one more thing study your anouncements your tested the first day....the interview process is pretty much flat out they let you know when you walk in about the company and the benefits if this is a job for you. Then you take a quick break and then its a one on one interview they only ask you a few questions. By the way make sure your in buisness attire and arrive early and ask lots of questions they'll see your more intrested....im currently not with republic airways it was a 3 week training i made to the end of the week since i wasnt told about test and had a little bit of time to study. also make sure you are in compliance or they give you demerits like make sure you have your mag light, and a black wrist watch good luck

I attended an open house for Compass Airlines on October 18th in Minneapolis and had a one-on-one interview. I really feel the interview went well and was told that I would hear something back from them by mail within a week. It's been 2 weeks now and still nothing. Has anybody else gone through the hiring process with Compass? I even called their HR Dept and they told me that I just need to wait it out. Very frusterating considering the interview went so well. Just looking for any input.

hi Crystal,
do you know about this, 1 day before the real interview for flight attendants there is a written test as a part of the recruitment, called Screening Day and after that is the interview.
Do you know in brief what kind of test could be this, is this a special form or just answering of some questions for background, family, i dont't know, or maybe they would like to know how good are your written skills. If you have something in mind, please keep in touch.
Nick

Hi Nick,
Unless your talking about a diffrent company maybe, but republic airways and many other companys don't make you take a screening test. I didnt have to take such a test. Unless your actually filled out an application and they requested an interview, but when you attend an open house they basically cover the history of the company,benefits,etc... then they take a quick break and give you a one on one interview. No screening :) which is a good thing

Hi Crystal again,

no this a different case and it is about the Ethihad Airways in Dubai. I was informed by the Recruitment agency manager, the a Screening Day will take place
in Frankfurt/Germany, but nobody can explain me, what is the topic and the point of this Day as a part of the total flight attendant procedure. Maybe, if you are successful, then you get the chance to attend the real interview, wich is on the next day after Screening. Do you have any friends, which have attended such a Screening day and could be helpful and by the Way can we exchange our emails, my is "nicki_kolev"@ on the "mail.bg", which is yours.
Greetings from Varna. Nick

i think it might be a drug screening and background check im really not sure since i never had to take one

Hi David,

I was contacted today for an interview with Republic Airways. I have no details as far as pay or benefits. Any idea of dominicle openings? Do you have any information you can share? When is your interview?

Hope to hear from you soon.

I am an aspiring flight attendant. I ust got hired as a customer service agent with Northwest Airlines and am going to Detroit for training next monday. I want to manouver my way to Flight attendant position. Do I have an advantage over someone not working for the airline?

David in Chicago, Illinois said: I have an interview with republic airways. Does anyone know if its in a group or individually?? What kind of questions to expect?? Any tips Please?

For Republic Airways, first you're in a group with all the interviewees and they show you a couple of videos and tell you all about the company, benefits, etc. Everyone tells the groups why they are there. Then you go into a one-on-one interview. They will ask if you meet the requirements, a couple of behavioral-type questions, and ask you to read a flight attendant announcement. Be sure to dress in a business suit. Good luck!

Hoping you heard from them by now being November. You attending our October 26th class. If you are, good luck!

If you have ever applied to an airline before, and have NOT been hired, READ THIS! I was a Flight Attendant Recruiter for a major airline for a short time, also a FA for 7 years. There are many things that we must SEE and HEAR to be considered as a prospective flight attendant. We do look at the "Entire Package" that YOU are presenting. From the moment you walk into your interview and exit the facility. Here are some GREAT TIPS to success in your interview process.
1. Do Your RESEARCH before you go on your interview. Buy a book, talk to other flight attendant.
2. Resume must be Outstanding, including an OBJECTIVE.
ex: I am highly enthusiatic, team player, and am willing to RELOCATE to any base. We want to see that you are FLEXIBLE.
3. Dress the part. Wear a professional suit that makes you look like a flight attendant. Ladies- every piece of hair must be pulled up and tight.
4. Talk the part. They like to see that your social and interactive with others. This is why we conduct a GROUP INTERVIEW. We are taking note of your interactions with others. TALK TO PEOPLE IN THE ROOM.
5. Have CONFIDENCE in yourself when you sit with your recruiter in your one-on-one. We as a company want to know why we should hire you. DO NOT say "because I love people and want to travel". This is the obvious. Ex: I want to work for a company that offers a world of "diversity" such as _________ airlines, and that exceeds their customers expectations on a daily basis.
6. Make DIRECT eye contact with your interviewer. We like to see that you have an interest and focus in the job.
7. Conclude your interview with confidence. ex: I hope to hear from you soon, and thank you for your time today. Manners go a LONG WAY.

BTW- Most airlines, again, most airlines, (not every airline) USUALLY let you know on the spot if you have been hired. Often times we will say, "Can you excuse me for just a moment", and bring back your offer of acceptance.

COMPASS TELL ME ABOUT EVERYTHING STARTING FROM THE FIRST PHONE CALL

Bonjour! I noticed that you were recently hired by Continental. I am interviewing with them in a few weeks and I am very much hoping begin my career with them. Can you provide me with any helpful tips for applying for this airline? I do alot of traveling and have been on multiple airlines and Continental is by far my favorite, which is why I would LOVE to work for them. There is nothing like being in the air! It would be great to hear from you. Thanks so much!

I am waiting to receive a call for my face to face interview with Delta- Any advice on physical presentation?

hello,
I am going to an group interview/open house in Los Angeles for Alaska Airlines, some helpful tips or basically anything would be greatly appreciated.

Hi - I am waiting for my call to go to Atlanta and I am looking for some tips myself - If I get any response I will surely share the information- BEST OF LUCK TO YOU.

I am waiting for a call from Delta and looking for some helpful hints myself- If I hear anything I will share- Best of luck to you.

i completed the online app and spoke with a recruiter. I am waiting for an answer or a call from Delta. Do you know what is the process before going to Atlanta?
thanks

I have had two telephone interviews and was told that I have past the assessment. I was asked what airport I would want to fly out of for the interview but dont want to make the assumption that it is a definite ' YES'. I was told I would hear from someone in 2 weeks - I do not speak any other language but have 27 years of customer service experience. Any thoughts on next steps? Thank you in advance for any information you can share.

By me saying Greensboro would that have been a negative impact on being selected?

Thanks alot for the information- I am so thrilled to have this opportunity. Thanks again.

Hi,
I don't know what they will ask in an interview with Emirates interview. But before you go, you should do some research about the company. Know a basic knowledge of where they fly and if you can find out, their major hubs.
Also keep in mind, all airlines want you to be very flexible. They want you at their disposal. Let them know that you are available for them at any time and any location (whether or not this is the truth).
Good Luck,
Melanie
