Preparing For Your Cabin Crew Interview

By Nick Dylann Andrews

There is a lot you can do to prepare for your cabin crew interview, and preparation is good. However, sometimes what matters most is the important issues that are rarely discussed. How you handle the interview can be just as important as (or more important than) your answers.

Showing up to your cabin crew interview worried or nervous can work against you. You are applying for a job that will require you to be cool under stress. We've all seen the pandemonium that happens during the boarding and disembarking. This is a stressful time, especially for the passengers and new members of the cabin crew.

Some of these sessions are highly open to visual and oral presentations that show off your personable skills. It's normal to be nervous but you still need to show up ready to go. If you're hired you are going to be speaking to strangers, including irate individuals so being too meek, mild, or mellow is not going to sell well. Confidence combined with friendliness creates a stronger presentation.

Open and friendly individuals are needed on every airline. People with ample patience, even when being challenged, are also necessary. How can you present all of these qualities during the interview? While you might be able to give plenty of right answers throughout the cabin crew interview, landing the right answers in a voice that is barely audible or filled with self doubt does not indicate that you are open, friendly, strong under fire, or confident.

Sometimes it is necessary to ask your friends or family for feedback before your interview. Sometimes we develop expressions or vocal tones that can be easily misinterpreted. Simply asking about their experiences communicating with you can give you a little insight.

Be prepared for anything. The biggest key to remembering all the helpful suggestions that you can read in the days before the interview is to be prepared for anything and everything. The more you simply don't let your feathers get ruffled the more prepared that you are naturally going to be.

Remember that you are there to present and sell them on you. The more that you can sell yourself the better the likelihood is that you will land the position. Describe your strengths and let the panel know that if they pass on you they are passing on one of the best candidates. No matter what your resume says, remember that they are looking for someone who can handle stress. If you're sweating the interview, how are you going to handle stress related to joining the cabin crew?
