Do you have what it takes to be a cabin crew?
Do you have the 10,000 megawatt smile?
You've got the height, the looks but you dont know what you're expecting during the interview or even after you start training. You have no idea..so let me share with you some tips! Well, before going for the interview take a minute and ask yourself. Do you really want this? Do you really know what are the job scope of a cabin crew apart from looking pretty standing at the door greeting all passengers? Alot people don't read up and know their jobscope especially they don't know what they expect before they join as a cabin crew. If you're here just to look pretty with your 'Ohh,i don't do toilet cleaning' attitude, then so sorry out the door you go. I'm talking about AirAsia. What i like best about them, is that they select people from all walks of life regardless you're from which background, or what sort of qualifications you have. They don't care whether if you're a degree holder or how many countless cert you have. They select every single individuals who are unique and talented in their own ways and make us as one big family. Thats what makes me an All star! Truly a dream come true.
Okay, cut it short. Let me share with you some tips if you wanna be an All Star too! Before the interview please :
- Get all your valid documents ready. Print extra copies just incase.
- Come in full make up. No glittery eyeshadows or opera make up.
- Wear knee length skirt and pick a nice blouse to match. Keep those micro mini tight skirts or grandma skirts at home!
- Wear pantyhose in charcoal color 21 only. It is not black in color, more like dark greyish black. You can get it in Guardian.
- Bring your make up kit/facial blotters incase you have to stay there whole day for the final interview.
- Leave your gone-were-the-days- bun hairstyle at home. It might ruin your chance to go to the second stage. Best come with pony tails, or just let you hair down if it is longer than your shoulder. Blow it to have the volume.
- Carry your big smile with you all the time! Don't be fake, they can tell! :)
- So, be well-prepared and make the best first impression! First round is pretty straight forward. Just drop me a message and i hope i can answer you asap :)
Happy Sunday ~!
Been busy this whole week due to exams. Just completed the whole first aid module and it has been awesome! I used to dislike that subject so much and failed consistently a couple of times. But now, i think it's all in my finger tips already. Kudos to my best instructor, very well explained and all the little details to make us understand better. Most of us did fantastic,despite for some of them are very new to this subject. So, well done!
Bonjour readers!
Welcome onboard! I'm pretty excited to start my ultimate experience with you guys. This is my first attempt to start a blog about my life and my dream career. Please correct me if i'm wrong if i have posted anything wrongly or may sound offensive. It is by no means to offend and organisation or any airlines.
To start things off, let me introduce myself first. My name is Jesmine, just Jes for short and i just started commence my training as a flight attendent in AA for bout a week already. Well, before this i was a teacher and i just finished my studies in Early Childhood Education. Everyone must be thinking, why i chose to fly? Theres a number of good reasons for it. The answer is pretty common and i bet most of the interviewers must have heard it million times. "It's my childhood dream job". As for myself, i started off hunting high and low searching and waiting for the interview open day in which ever airlines. I was a naive and innocent 18 year old back then when i finished my SPM. I remembered the first interview i went is SIA. I only had my SPM with me, but i made it till the final only. But i didnt give up back then. To cut the story short, somehow after a couple of months i finally made it to our local airline. Was there for a good 2 years plus. It wasn't that great, but i had a pleasant experience but then i realized that something is bothering me so i left for good and continued my studies which i didnt have the chance to before.
I wanted to try venturing in other fields, but i came to a conclusion that i only wanted to fly. Alot of people had asked me why not other normal office jobs and get regular salary every month? Well, for me it's really typical. A very few people have desire to work mundane jobs that doesn't pay very well and you have to live up to their expectations. It's just like you're directly under one superior or boss. It's just not my cup of tea. It's alot easier said and done, especially for those who have years of education, training, and experience that they just enjoy working a normal day job and want a simple life. I prefer a career that gives me a whole new learning experience in my everyday life. Everyday, is a different story.
Many people stereotyped that this is a 'high class' waitress job. Well, i can tell you one thing. If you are not hardworking and don't have the passion for it, don't waste your time. It ain't easy and every single one of us has a role to play the moment we report for duty. During training, we need to fullfill all the standard procedure for all tests which comes in two parts which is practical and theory required by the DCA (Department of Civil Aviation). It takes a lot of motivation and determination to be a good crew. You also need to have good etiquettes and mannerism to go far and *play safe*. So much said, if your decision to become a flight attendent just go for it. Make it happen. Just be yourself, be humble to all and you'll go far!
