A lot of people think, if you want to be a flight attendant,
you have to be really tall like a supermodel
Yeah, they ask beauty pageant questions
I have applied so many times for this position
I honestly could not remember
how many times I applied because I didn't count my failures
I just counted the times that
the next time I would apply...
Hi guys! its me kaykrizz from
beaflightattendant.blogspot.com(old) misskaykrizz.com(new) welcome to my channel!
In this video I will just talk about the entire
process on getting the job as a flight attendant
and for the tips and tricks
on how to get the job I think this an entirely different subject
and it's very broad and
I can not cover it in one video :(
This is based entirely on my experience. I'm not representing any company.
This is just me. Anyways this introduction is becoming too long.
Let's get right into the video.
The topics that I will be covering today
will be the process on how you become a flight attendant
which is summarized on these steps
Step 1: You need to meet the basic requirements.
and step 2: pass the interview process
step 3: pass the medical exam
step 4: pass the flight attendant training
1. You have to meet the basic requirements that is the
the required height, weight that is proportion
the educational experience
you have to check on the company that you are applying for the height that they require
usually it would be about 157 cms, it really depends..
so once you have your height, you have to make sure that your weight is proportion for your height.
It doesn't mean that you have to be really skinny
to have that supermodel figure to get this job
actually you can get in trouble for that because
if you are below your required weight
sometimes they won't pick you, and sometimes they do
if you're not just the exact weight
for your height that could be a point against you
you have to check your BMI or Body Mass Index
just google it and you will see how to calculate it
they have a table where it has your height and weight range
The educational experience: if you have graduated high school
that will be good enough for International Flight Attendants
they don't put the education requirements that high, but if you're applying for your local
company in your home country
I believe they have higher standards
for me, they required college graduates and the minimum
if not college graduates is two years in college
Aside from the height, weight, and educational background,
Each and every company also have their own standards when it comes to age and civil status
Once you think that you meet all these requirements make sure on the day of the interview
bring your resume, pictures and wear business attire
The interview process there are 4 basic steps:
1st step: Impact Interview
This usually last about a minute to two
2nd step: Group Discussion 3rd step: Written Examination
4th step: Final interview
That's the four process on how they go about the recruitment
The basic way they do it. Some companies have more, some have different styles
After you have gone through the whole interview process,
you may know the results immediately or if they let you wait,
you might be asking, "How long do you think you should wait?"
sometimes it takes a month or more
but usually the basic will be 2 weeks
for the duration of the interviews,
Open days, this is a big event that is held in hotels
it usually is just two consecutive days
however for regular interviews
it may vary, could be you're set on initial interview on this date
and you will be called to continue on with the process
for another month...two weeks, you'll never know
not like Open Day where in its consecutive
sometimes there's a waiting period in between interviews
the next step after the interview process,
will be the medical examinations
this will be shouldered by you
you gotta have savings for that
it may cost about 2,000 to 5,000Php
you live a healthy lifestyle and maintain it once you get the job
they will check CBC, blood chemistry, urinalysis, fecalysis,
also they will check for x-ray, to see if your lungs are clear and your heart is fine
also if you have scoliosis, some companies don't accept but most companies do
they have range from 10 - 15 degrees and you're still acceptable
I got a lot of questions about eyes
"If I wear glasses, will I still be a flight attendant?"
"If I have this kind of grade", "I have myopia, nearsightedness, farsightedness, can I still be a Flight Attendant?"
and answer to that question is...
YES you can!!!
that's about for the medical exams, you usually get the results
within the day, three days or week or so
after you get the results, pass that to your employer
here are the samples of procedures that you have to go through
for your medical exams once you have passed all of your interview
last and not least step you have to go through to become a flight attendant
The Training
you would say "I passed the interviews, I passed the medical"
"I am set!"
but.. no you're not!
you still have to pass the training
some companies are very strict with test scores
and some not really and I can say for the International flight attendant scene
it's not as cut-throats as it is
in the local scene because sometimes the passing rate is
about 85% of the test questions
about the test score in the local or in my home country
the passing score is from 85% - 90%
You can only fail until 5x then you're out of the program
but where the international scene
the passing rate is about 80% - 85%
and that is a good news for you
you still have to study but there's just more margin for error
I'm not saying that one is better than the other
but for me personally, 80% percent
is much better 95% :D
that is it for the scores, you have to pass everything, and you can only
fail 3x to 5x
one more important point that you have to remember is..
You always have to be on time on your training
I don't know if it's all of the companies, I know most companies have this policy.
That you can never be late in any training
you can only be late once or twice
and then you're out of the company or the program
you could never be absent, if you're absent for one time,
that is it.. you're out!
Nice to know you, Goodbye!!!
If you're successful in each and every step of the process...
CONGRATULATIONS!!!
