1⟩ Tell me why should we hire you for our company?

This is the time to sell yourself! It is all about how you fit into the position.

not how the position fits with you.

Talk about your skills and strengths that will benefit the company.

Do not be general or desperate and answer with: ʻBecause I need a jobʼ

or I think it could be a nice to travel for freeʼ. This question is not about you, it is about what you can do for them.

2⟩ Do you think some passengers take their frustrations out on cabin crew?

There are probably a number of reasons why Flight Attendants will face these frustrations.

► The passengers are in unfamiliar circumstances; they have probably had a hard time getting through ticketing, immigration and finding their way around the airport. Through the whole process you, as a Flight Attendant are probably the first person they have had to vent all this frustration on.

► Many passengers are uncomfortable or even afraid of flying; this frustration could be a sign of this fear. Almost certainly they are in unfamiliar circumstances.

► If the passenger has transmitted or gotten up early for the flight, they are probably tired and this tends to make people irritable.

3⟩ What you do if you saw one of your colleagues being deliberately rude to a passenger?

► Firstly I would check with the Flight Attendant to make sure I heard and understood everything correctly. It would be terrible to falsely accuse someone. Maybe I had miss-heard.

► If the Cabin Crew seems to be genuinely at fault I would report it to a senior Flight Attendant. The reputation of the company and the enjoyment of the passengers is of course a very important concern.

► If I was the direct superior of the Flight Attendant, I would ask them the circumstances of the incident and take appropriate action. The crew would be given a verbal warning but the incident would be recorded in the crew briefing note.

► I would also approach the concerned passenger to find out if he was at all affected by his encounter with the crew and try to fix the situation.

5⟩ Tell me the most fun that you ever experienced on the job?

Discuss a successful project you enjoyed completing, not the workplace

cafeteria pranks.

Take this chance to reinforce your team player skills.

Keep the answer short and professional.

Every December we have a ʻsales person of the yearʼ competition. Last

year, the sales associates divided into 2 teams and we had our own

competition to see who sells the most. We had great fun making daily

charts and posting them for everyone to see. We sold so much that

month, we became the best selling store and we were all praised by our

manager.

7⟩ What weaknesses you have?

I feel that my attention to detail is my weakness. I want everything to be

perfect. Sometimes I get so caught up in small details that I forget to see

the big picture.It was pointed out to me and I was able to improve

myself. I am now constantly finding ways to balance both the details and

the overall situation.

Disclose a weakness only when you have already taken steps to

compensate for it.

Describe a challenge a how you overcame it, stating what you learned

during the process.

Do not say that you have no weakness.

9⟩ What challenge at work you faced and overcame recently?

We received a new computer software that would take not only the

reservations for the day, but also the customer details, the orders and

the home-delivery schedule. It was taking a long time to input all the

data while the customers were waiting. I asked the manager to get some

training from the IT Company. In only 30 minutes they taught me all the

shortcuts and I managed to be efficient when operating it.

11⟩ What you do if a commercially important passenger complained that another commercially important passenger is snoring too loudly behind him?

I would listen and sympathize with the passenger, but of course I cannot awaken the snorer (just yet anyway).

Offer earplugs and empathy will do a lot to elevate the situation. Maybe a drink will also help the passenger ignore the snoring. I can also suggest headphones piping in music.

12⟩ How would you deal with this situation if there are 60 children on the flight, but you only have 40 toys?

There are a number of things I could do here.

► I'd check out each kit and if appropriate I'd beak it down into a coloring book for one child and a puzzle for another. I have done this before and it works out fine in most cases.

► I'll make sure the kit is age appropriate, some of the older kids may not want the entertainment items inside, so I'd make a call on the age limit when handing out the kit.

13⟩ What would you do if the seat belt signs were on and the aircraft is about to take off, but a passenger insist that he has to kneel down to conduct his prayer due to religious reasons?

Well obviously this is a delicate situation. However first and foremost is Passenger safety.

I would deal with this situation by calmly speaking to the passenger and telling him we respect his choice to pray but he cannot do this during take-off because of the danger to himself and other passengers. I would politely ask him to take his seat.

Also if I were a junior Cabin Crew I would confer with a senior as there are many things involved.

14⟩ Have you worked with someone whom you did not like?

This is a trap question!

Speaking negatively about other people will show you as an unreliable

character.

Stay professional and be diplomatic.

Not really. I believe that when disagreements occur, the matters can be

taken up with the concerned person and be immediately solved.
