Hi Contract Fly Girl!
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, I just have to say I appreciate your blog so much!! For someone who really wants to be a flight attendant, it is just SO helpful, and I appreciate it so much!
Second, I just have some questions for you! I am a 19 year old college student who would like to take a break from school and be a flight attendant! I've always wanted to travel, and I would love to travel with work and also use some of the benefits to be able to travel more! I'm very interested in this Trans States Airlines job- along with some other ones I'm finding (since most airlines want their FA's to be 21), and I would just LOVE to be a flight attendant! When applying for positions, what would you recommend looks good on an application? What can I do to make myself be a good candidate for the job? I have customer service experience and am already certified in first aid, so I hope that helps! Also, what do you love about being a flight attendant? What do you not like so much? How do you know if an airline is reliable and a good airline to work for? Any other words of advice?
ANYTHING you can give me would just help me so much! Thank you so much for your time. You are great!!
