How to Prepare for Air hostess / Cabin Crew Interviews?
On the day of the interview, you must be so thorough that the airline can look at you as their air hostess and part of the cabin crew. Your conduct must be professional, your personality must be appealing and confident, and your communication skills must be to ‘T’. Now, how do you make sure you achieve these goals before your interview? Here you go:
Resume
A professional resume is your identity on the day of the interview. Before you enter, it is your resume that makes or breaks your impression. Therefore, it is essential that you follow certain prescribed norms and highlight your skills, qualities, qualifications, and more.
Professional Photograph
You will need 2 studio-clicked photographs in professional attire to present during your interview. One needs to be a standing, full-length photograph and the other a passport-sized photograph. The dimensions and specifications must meet the airline guidelines. Make sure, no Photoshop, no phone-clicked photos and selfies!
Documentation
Make sure that all your documents are in order. Carry all your certificates, recommendation letters, co-curricular and extra-curricular achievements, and more that add to and highlight your strengths and profile.
Passport
A valid Indian passport is another essential document you need. Carry a copy of your valid passport which has a minimum validity of 5 years. Make sure it is in good condition, all pages intact, and the cover clean.
Well-groomed Personality
Grooming is an essential criterion during the interview process since you will be working with a customer-centric profile. You need to maintain airline grooming standards and wear business formals. Men candidates can wear trousers and a shirt and pair them with a smart blazer. Women can opt for a skirt and shirt and again pair it with a smart blazer. Remember,
do not overdress yourself.
Confident Body Language
On the day of the interview, bring the best version of yourself! Your body language should be confident and appealing. Your personality should show that you are a candidate who is warm with customers, is a leader in emergency situations, and overall highlights the values of the airline. Also, remember to wear a genuine smile during your interview.
Communication Skills
For a customer-oriented job profile, your communication skills must be superb. Like every other profession, you too might have to deal with difficult, scared, elderly customers; that’s where your communication skills will help you the most. Above all, since you will be working with airlines your customer base will be from across the world and English is, as everyone knows, a global language. Mastery and command over English is therefore a must-have. Make sure, your fluency shows on the day of the interview. Give clear, crisp, answers.
