    Thank you for your videos! I had failed prior interviews and was discouraged since this has been dream of mine. I watched your videos, learned a lot, and nailed the interview and got an offer. Your tips gave me the tools to present and sell my best self, in this competitive interview process. I don't even know you, but I want to give you a hug. Thank you thank you, for sharing your wisdom with us. - Jaimie :)

I told her my goal was flight attendant and she was amazing and wants me to go for the top! So here I am researching and came across you and I'm so grateful! I'll be taking all your amazing advice and I know I'll succeed! You're the best!

    • @meganmurphy6491
      @meganmurphy6491 8 лет назад +4

      ellen saurr I tend to get really worked up and nervous during interviews (and this one is definitely the most intense process I've been through). It helped me SO MUCH to go on glassdoor and write down every single question. On the plane ride there and the night before I worked on the questions so I had my answers prepared and different scenarios I had been in ready to go. This helped me feel prepared and calmed my nerves. Get to the airport with plenty of time to spare so you don't get flustered trying to figure out where you're going (this will also give you a chance to meet and talk with the other people interviewing). Just be genuine and try to enjoy the experience!

    • @ellensaurr2834
      @ellensaurr2834 8 лет назад +1

      Thanks Megan, I appreciate the tips! My interviews went ok, I was pretty nervous and that wasn't to my advantage. I received a TBNT a week later. But was encouraged to reapply in 6 months. Time to sharpen up my resume, practice customer service scenarios and practice reading the announcements aloud.

  • @chattygabby1
    @chattygabby1 8 лет назад +8

    I received an invited to a group interview with about 100 other ladies and gents. I was told by many of the attendees how great I did, they loved what I said and it wasn't just "run of the mill I have great customer service skills"....I am at a point in my life where I don't have to work to survive, I can choose my career and this is what I want to do. I was so excited that so many people said this to me...I am 50 years old but look 35....and I didn't make the cut. They said they will not tell us what we did wrong or why we were not chosen, so how can we know what to improve on....what they are looking for etc etc. For so many people to come up to me and say ." you really did great, I wish I had your confidence"...it was embarrassing to be the only one in my group that did not get picked for the second interview. Any advice about what to say when it comes to Why do you want to be a flight attendant. That was the question, we all had a minute and I was told to reapply in 90 days>?? I don't know how I can do better when I don't know what I did wrong. Why do I want to be a flight attendant....just like I said, Life experiences have taught me things I cannot learn in school but I have worked in a medical office for 20 years dearling with all types of people and while I enjoyed my career I am not just looking to travel or get the flight benefits, its really what I want to do. Any advice you have would be great.

    • @jasminewhite9623
      @jasminewhite9623 6 лет назад +1

      chattygabby1 I think maybe they are wanting to hear a personal experience that you have shared through one of your “customer service” jobs. In your case, it’s medical. I’m sure you have plenty of moments with one of your patients or clients that sticks out to you. A time where you feel like you enjoyed helping in a specific way and you feel as though you benefited from it as well as the person. They don’t want to just hear you say I enjoy helping people. Why do you enjoy helping people? Show/tell/elaborate on why you chose to do that. Safety is a key topic as well (if that’s possible to tie into your small personal experience story). Also, I don’t think I want to hear anyone even mention the words “doing it because I love traveling” even though you said that you are not doing it because of that, the thought was still there and it may be a red flag?

      BigD Travels I've been going out with my gf for 3 years. If anything, our relationship will be a challenge and if it's meant to be it will be. I don't mind moving around cuz I've been moving houses to houses since I was a baby. Never had a place called home longer than 10 years. And I'm also only 20 years old so this experience will be lit. I think I'm going to do it next summer when I get my braces off

If your looking to work with United Airlines then the required height is 152 centimetres, so you are a perfect height, on the website it does not mention about the tattoo as maybe you should get in contact with your preferred airline and then ask the question. I hope this helped! ^JM

      @jessicah3450 6 лет назад +3

      I saw 20 as the minimum age at American Airlines. Maybe work in direct customer service to gain experience and save some money because pay is low starting out.
      I know this is an old post, but that would be my advice 🙂. Retail helps you learn how to deal with the best and worst of people, and also gain experience and patience that no class or training course can ever teach.

I was more interested in cabin crew. Which they barely teach at college . Then there's teachers saying it's rare to get a job as a flight attendant with no qualifications 😂 when I've done my research on Google and basically people on you tube have got a job with no qualifications. I'm just happy to hear people doing it with no college qualifications . :)

    Hi Ebony, I've always wanted to be a FA since I was a kid. Normally, I would apply to one airline, but get discouraged after receiving the dreaded rejection email. After watching your video and going to the suggested website that you mentioned, I started applying to a lot of airlines however, I'm very tall so I can't apply to most regional airlines due to height restrictions.
    Most of my applications are under review at this point. I just completed a hirevue video for a large mainline airline and I am just waiting to see if they will invite me to the F2F. The fact that I made it to the hirevue video was quite shocking to me. I couldn't believe it.
    Thank you for creating this video and it indicates that you are willing to give people tips to get into the aviation industry. I've asked many flight attendants on how to get into the field, but none gave me advice and others discouraged me in a NY minute.
    One more thing: After watching your video, I started bleaching my teeth , doing my own manicure for these potentially, and keeping my face clear and clean. upcoming. Thank you so much!!!! I'll keep you posted.

    • @RaRaLaLa489
      @RaRaLaLa489 8 лет назад

      Hi BRI CHERI,
      I've been rejected by the mainline airline that I did the video interview with. I was later rejected by another regional airline after doing a video interview. I'm really burned out and my confidence has been shattered due to the rejections. Sometimes I wonder if the rejection is due to the color of my skin or I'm just not qualified, however, I am beginning to realize that I don't do well with video interviews. I also realized that I do better during in person interviews or open houses. I found my style of interviewing because of these experiences. I am getting ready for an invited only open house next week for another regional airline. The open house next week will be my last stand and last attempt after 7 rejections. I keep playing the line "Dust yourself off and try again". Thanks for reaching out and I'll update you hopefully next Wednesday or the day after. I was told it will take a week to get an offer.

    Can you please let me know what it's like being on reserve? On days you work, do you get to bid or make preferences?

    • @ebonychristina
      @ebonychristina  8 лет назад

      Reserve life can be tough! But it's bearable. While on reserve you can't bid or make any preferences for your trips, the airlines will assign those as the need arises. You will only be able to bid your days off. Basically the airline will assign you trips a day or so in advance but a lot of times they will be assigned immediately and on the spot. That's the tough part because you never know what to pack bc you don't know where you'll end up.

      I know a woman who was a flight attendant for 10 years, she's a short, more heavy-set woman. Not all airlines will have restrictions, you would have to research that specific airlines requirements.

I am still so grateful to travel the world and meet amazing people. There's absolutely nothing like it! Loved your video and the inspiration you give to those who are considering getting their wings. 😍

I did one digital for Virgin and I received a response, "impressive background, but we are continuing with other applicants." I now know that I did not smile enough. However, it could have been my content. Still working it!

    • @ebonychristina

      Hi Ebony! I love the way you communicate. Everything you said was articulate and had very good points. You are so right. Work it, work it, work it. It is all practice! Going to a Skywest group interview this Tuesday. Relieved that it is not a video; however, the video experience was incredible and worth it. I learned so much from that rejections. Mainly, #1. I was not ready for it......true true true.....and/or #2. God has another thing planned....true true true.
      Once again, I think you are sharp, articulate, and beautiful...You would make a great motivational speaker and/or instructor.
      Thanks!

I don't know where I can get flight experience from, I don't want to waste 4 years on CS if I don't want to do it. You also have to be 21, and have to know Chinese and Japanese.

    Ebony this video was spot on! And best wishes to you !🌺 As a former FA that flew 8 yrs, I enjoyed it, however it's not for everybody. I think people that are looking or dreaming to get into the industry should spend sometime just really researching the industry and learn as much about aviation , salaries, cultures -people etc etc before applying. Yes it can be glamorous , however it's hard work ! The interviews & call backs are the easy part and If it's meant to be it 'll, happen, however people shouldn't be blinded by just the "glamor-fun" of it. After flying for a while I would notice how the "New hires" would burn out after a few months ! It was because their expectations were higher than actual reality ! But did I personally enjoy the job?-yes. Would I do it again?-no ! I had to access the pros and cons, and it didn't equal out to my personal satisfaction , so I resigned , went back to school to get my Masters and now in an occupation that's a more rewarding ($ and satisfaction ) for me. Be safe✈ and enjoy !

  • @Kitty-yo5st
    @Kitty-yo5st 8 лет назад +3

    This was so informative! When I was 16 I was at a local Laundromat and met a retired Flight Attendant and her husband. They randomly stopped me and said I would make a perfect Flight Attendant and I should look more into it. 3 years later of trying to figure out if I should or not, I'm still thinking about it, mainly because I never been on a plane and I have a fear of heights lol I know I can get over it with practice, but I always dreamt about traveling the world and being independent before settling down. And if I decide to apply and actually(hopefully) get the job, I'll be living with my parents still, raising enough fund till I'm capable of getting a car and my own place to live.
    One piece of info I never could find is about age. I'm currently 18, but I'll be 19 during the summer. What is the appropriate age, or is it different for each airline?I have customer service experience, I also have been doing pageants part of the Miss USA organization and Miss United States organization, so hopefully interview wont be a struggle for me lol.
    Thank you so much for posting this video, it's enlightened me so much! :)
