You've Got a Flight Attendant Interview and Need Advice - Quickly!

By TJ Reincke Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/4351772

For so long now you've dreamt of the day you go for your first flight attendant interview. Now that you've been called you're getting nervous. Nerves can be a good thing so long as they are due to excitement not fear. If you've got nerves of fear then arm yourself with a bit of knowledge and get rid of them by being prepared.

To be attending a flight attendant interview means that you have succeeded with your resume application so take a pat on the back. Now for the next step in the application process, your interviews. For most airlines it will be the group interview first and these are typically held in a hotel or suitably sized hall. You will need to register prior to the stated time so don't be late or you'll be turned away.

There are two things that you need to remember at this point and that is you will be under observation at all times and you will never get a second chance at making a great first impression so dress immaculately and present yourself professionally.

Your flight attendant interview group sessions all go through a similar format although all airlines have their own agenda to run on the day.

When the registrations have finished, you will likely be ushered into a room where a company representative will welcome you to the group flight attendant interview session and provide an outline of the day's events. They will then either present a slide presentation or more likely a short video about the airline that you want to become a flight attendant for followed by a question and answer session.

While there are a lot of don'ts during your flight attendant interview here, the thing to remember is to take advantage of this opportunity to ask an intelligent conforming question. It gives you the chance to be noticed and if you are dressed immaculately you will be, and similarly so if you ask the right question. And while the word intelligent speaks for itself, a conforming question is one that not negative, doesn't rock the boat and shows an insight or interest in the subject matter. Normally something about the company is an obvious and good choice.

And while one question is good, don't go over board and run the flight attendant interview like it was your own session and think you need to be the centre of attention. Do this and you're application will be deposited fair and square into the centre of the rubbish bin.

After you're question and answer session you'll move onto groups around a table if you weren't seated there in the first instance and you'll be asked to introduce yourself to each other before being asked to participate in group activities. Again, be reminded that notes and observations are being taken on you at all times. The flight attendant interview cull process is in action.

The thing to remember here is that your group activity and for that matter your flight attendant interview, is a game. If you don't play the 'right' game then your day is about to end. Statistically, history shows with monotonous consistency that more than 95% of the rest of the people in the room with you will eventually be going home unhappy also.

If they haven't culled or reduce the number after the first 'game', the process will be repeated. In short, after each 'game' (group activity), those of you still in the flight attendant interview will be given a short break and shortly thereafter a group of names will be called out.

This is the cull in action and a trained eye will know what group is going home in tears. An interviewer will address one of the groups and inform them that on this occasion they have not been successful.

If you survive this process, and you should if you take the time to arm yourself with a bit of knowledge, and get yourself prepared. Your next interview will be a one-on-one which quite likely will be a one-on-panel flight attendant interview. There is a process or formula to this interview also that with a little bit of knowledge and preparation should put you in the small group of 3% or less that actually achieve a successful outcome to a flying career.
