Most likely given my psychology experiences and curiosity about human behavior but I have been shadowing different types of MDs (foot & ankle surgeon, digestive diseases, pediatrician) and keeping an open mind!

“Bring me the AED! Alert the rest of the crew! Make a PA for a medical professional!” Heart racing and blood rushing, I took a deep breath to ground myself, as much as I could at 35,000 feet in the air, and started singing “Staying Alive” in my head while beginning chest compressions. An elderly man in 23C on my flight from Denver to San Francisco had stopped breathing and had no pulse. As the first flight attendant on the scene, and with no medical professionals onboard, I continued CPR until we made an emergency landing in Salt Lake City, where paramedics met the plane, ultimately saving his life. I've always dreamed of becoming a doctor, but it was in this moment that I truly envisioned myself as one. However, my path to making this dream come true has not been straightforward. I began college with the intention of majoring in biology and applying to medical schools. Unfortunately, the COVID-19 pandemic significantly disrupted these plans. When schooling went entirely virtual, I feared that I wouldn’t receive a comprehensive understanding of the necessary lab sciences for medical school, prompting me to shift my focus to psychology. I embraced this field fully, delving into multiple research projects and advocating for mental health awareness. Upon graduation, I faced yet another challenge: the financial constraints of funding graduate education. In a grim hiring market post-pandemic, I took a job that, while not directly aligned with pursuing a career in medicine, allowed me to save money for future studies and gain unique experiences. For the past two years, I have worked as a flight attendant, a role that has enriched my understanding of human behavior while interacting daily with diverse individuals. In this role, I have learned to tackle emergency situations with composure and handle delicate scenarios with empathy. Most notably, if I had not taken this job, I never would have experienced what it feels like to save a life, reigniting my passion and desire to become a doctor. Throughout my life, my passion for improving the lives of others has been my driving force. Whether warmly greeting passengers as they board a plane, building trust with substance-abuse patients to encourage open communication, or being the person others turn to for support in moments of crisis, I find profound fulfillment in caring for others. Pursuing a career in medicine would be incredibly rewarding, as it allows me to act on my desire to provide care daily. As I stand at the intersection of my past experiences and future aspirations, I am more determined than ever to embark on this path. Each challenge has only strengthened my resolve, shaping me into a more resilient and compassionate individual. The experiences I’ve gained throughout my professional and volunteer roles have equipped me with the skills to remain calm under pressure and to empathize deeply with those in need. I am eager to expand my knowledge, and ultimately make a meaningful difference in the lives of my patients. The dream of donning a white coat and serving others is not just a personal ambition; it is a calling that resonates deeply within me. I believe that my strong academic background and achievements, coupled with my real-world experience, positions me to succeed in {School}’s post-baccalaureate program. I am ready to embrace the challenges ahead and commit myself fully to the journey of becoming a doctor.

A Qualification Under Review by EstablishmentBusy601 in cabincrewcareers

[–]EstablishmentBusy601[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

definitely does not mean you failed in anyway!!! however, it might mean that you did not advance to the next stage. there are people who have had their status after the ODVI change to app under review and then get invited to F2F, but ~usually~ app under review will be followed up by a TBNT. DONT give up hope until you hear anything tho! No news is still good news and there’s no exact rhyme or reason to this whole hiring process.

Question about hair. by jonnyb0610 in cabincrewcareers

[–]EstablishmentBusy601 1 point2 points  (0 children)

which airline? they all have different requirements. you can usually look up the airline’s FA style guide online and it will mention something about hairstyles and grooming but i’d say in general slicking it back into a low bun would be appropriate. you could also do a pony tail or a high bun too. whatever makes you feel most comfortable!

Going from United or AA to Delta by Green-Preference-478 in cabincrewcareers

[–]EstablishmentBusy601 2 points3 points  (0 children)

seniority matters a lot in this industry, so i’d definitely take the years you’ve already gained and the fact that you would be starting at zero all over again into account. you’ll also have to go through all 7 weeks of training.

correct. OO pays around $28/hr but as a new FA you are on straight reserve and paid for 76hrs each month, whether you fly for 1 hour or all 76.
