Cabin Crew Interview Questions
An interview for a cabin crew role will be focused on how flexible you can be such as: do you have a family or pets you need to attend to, who will do this in your absence? What is your home life like? How do you travel now, do you go on holiday a lot, if so with who and to where? They will want to know that you have experienced some of this lifestyle.
You will need to demonstrate how you operate on your own, ensuring that if you are away for periods of time that you will not be homesick and that you will view your job as the most important factor.
They will need you to demonstrate that you have experience of dealing with the public, how good is your customer service even in those tricky situations? Think of a past scenario that you can tell them about where you have been commended for your excellent customer service.
Demonstrate that you are always willing to learn and try new things. You may not always get to travel to somewhere on your hit list and factors such as heat/cold, different environments, food etc all need to be taken in account as to whether you can deal with different places constantly.
Envisage the role of cabin crewe from still being in the airport to arriving at the destination and what that entails – the plane is packed with the correct things, food, drinks etc, the safety equipment has been checked, you know your procedures inside out, think about the passengers and what questions they are likely to ask, duty free and working out prices quickly and dealing with other currencies. If you can envisage that role and you in it then you can walk into an interview and talk confidently about your subject and the role you have chosen to do.
You should be aware of some facts about working as a cabin crew such as:
– Being away from home most times
– Unsocial hours of working
– Pay usually not different than any other job.

Something i’ve always wanted to do, but i suffer from Travel sickness. Cabin Crew is a great career, you get to see all sorts of destinations around the world and discounted travel. Cant think of anything better if you can do it i say go for it
Being a member of a cabin crew is a great job for those who want to see some of the world and aren’t afraid of being away from family for too long.
Obviously, if you have a family or feel like you will get homesick very easily, this isn’t the right job for you. The employers don’t want to hire people who will be leaving after a few weeks or having difficulty being away from home regularly. It may be worth telling the interviewer of situations where you have been away from home for a while or away from family in order to prove that you’re capable of leaving home comfortably.
It may also help if you’ve travelled a lot, as this shows that you’re used to this kind of lifestyle.
Thank you
