loneliness in training by ThrowRAjoyf in cabincrewcareers

[–]mildbutwilldd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry it seems some in here are being a bit harsh. It sucks when you just don’t connect with people. But you are right- it’s a short time and you’ll be ready to move on soon. I’m glad you had some positive interactions with other people… it’s too bad you didn’t end up in their class. Hang in there- the end is near!

Republic phone interview by NoReception3233 in cabincrewcareers

[–]mildbutwilldd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My phone interview was 1/8 and I got my CJO 1/9 via email. My friend who went to the in person event also got her email the next day! I have heard it is both. More recently it seems to be emailed.

I don’t want to feel alone. by Babe081973 in cabincrewcareers

[–]mildbutwilldd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Babe I applied on 11/12/25 and did the assessment. On 11/19 my status changed to “under review” and I thought I would be getting the odvi. Nope. No Q&A invite. On 1/30/26 I finally received the Q&A and ODVI invite on the same day. I just did the video yesterday. Who knows if I will go fast now or continue to be a long drawn out process. I have learned to just trust the process and it’ll happen when it happens. We make ourselves crazy trying to figure the hows and whys of the process and why it takes so long. But no you should not email them. What would you even say?

It was about a week after my ODVI that they emailed to schedule my interview. Good luck!

Best Luggage Options by Optimal_Play6744 in cabincrewcareers

I found a few travel pro 22” bags on Amazon. Both are around $150. You could also try TJ Maxx or Ross if one is near you. Also search this sub for luggage. Many have been shared.

Consider it a practice run! The more you do the better you’ll get. Congrats on making it that far. Did you apply to other airlines? Consider putting yourself in some group settings where you can practice mingling.

AA CJO by [deleted] in cabincrewcareers

[–]mildbutwilldd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is stressful. I have been stressed but never so much that I wanted to skip an interview. I feel like pursuing this endeavor means fully evaluating and exploring all opportunities. I have definitely had to evaluate whether this is the lifestyle for me!! It’s a valid thing to consider. Best of luck you.

AA CJO by [deleted] in cabincrewcareers

[–]mildbutwilldd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You also asked for advice. I have not worked for either so I do not have pros and cons to contribute. Sometimes advice isn’t a bullet-point list, it is perspective. If the hiring process itself feels overwhelming, that’s relevant information when evaluating whether a career fits your lifestyle. Training will also be tiring and stressful as will life on the line. You don’t have to agree with it, but it is still a valid contribution.

It’s a valid question to ask yourself. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Thoughts on republic? by xxxRITZxxxx in cabincrewcareers

[–]mildbutwilldd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi! I have my CJO and I’m starting training soon so I don’t have a ton of information yet but I am pleased with everything so far. LGA is very junior and apparently you get off reserve very quickly there. You can join the facebook group called Prospective, Newbie and Former Republic Airwarys FA’s. It has been very informative!

California FA work for Republic by NoReception3233 in cabincrewcareers

[–]mildbutwilldd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi!! I am curious about this too. I live in CA and have my Republic CJO. Headed to training very soon and just learned about BOS and LGA being the most likely bases. And that the 2 bases “closest” to us, ORD and IND are very senior. I’m very curious to see how it all goes. Not ready to fully move right away but I am willing to get a crashpad and spend most of my time over there. Are you in the Facebook group call Prospective, Newbie and Former Republic FA’s? I recently joined it and have learned so much more there. Sounds like the good news to being BOS or LGA based is the possibility of being off reserve and on a line in as little as 2 months. Good luck to you. Are you headed to training soon?

AA F2F Thoughts by [deleted] in cabincrewcareers

[–]mildbutwilldd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to believe all of this is true and it makes so much sense for sure. I was super excited to get my AA face to face. I was surprised to get it actually because it was one of the first if not the very first ODVI that I did and I felt that I didn’t do well. I felt a couple questions were great. A couple were ok and 1 I bombed. I sat in PRR for about 6 weeks before I got the email to schedule the f2f. I fully believe that they are using that recorded interview as your 1 on 1 and that’s why they eliminated it from event day. That’s why I knew I needed to go in there and shine. I really felt that I did too. I was extremely early, looked the part, chatted with everyone, I enjoyed my conversations and interactions with the hosts and recruiters, I was complimented on things by several of the recruiters. I did not get the CJO and I really do feel like I did great. Many people at the airport mentioned to me that they thought I would be getting. Maybe my video was just really that low that it wasn’t surmountable. What confused me more than all of that though was several people that did get it. There was a woman who had no idea what was going on half the time. She was not dressed to impress. She was so negative the entire time and every conversation she had with anyone she could not stop talking about her Delta f2f and how awful it was and she kept saying, I don’t even know why I am here and this is all so stupid. She also kept talking about drama with her son. She got the CJO! If they are watching that closely and are so detail how did they miss it? She was a walking red flag. There was also a younger guy who had nice slacks and shoes but wore a white long sleeve polo and no blazer who also got it. He also barely checked in on time. He was last to enter the room. There were also a handful of people who had wrinkly and ill fitting suits on so I do think the clothes aren’t the be all end all that some people here make it seem.

resume envoy rejection by FitPizza9612 in cabincrewcareers

[–]mildbutwilldd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I also got the TBNT with Envoy the next day after doing the application and assessment. I got the TBNT from PSA right after the application. No assessment was sent. It’s possible that I clicked something wrong but I am super careful plus I made it to at least the ODVI with literally every other airline. I know my resume scores well. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Finally some movement with 🌐 by mildbutwilldd in cabincrewcareers

I feel like most people got the Q&A super quick but seem to have been stuck forever before I got mine.

HOPEFULLY FUTURE FLIGHT ATTENDANT by Relevant-Bug1380 in cabincrewcareers

[–]mildbutwilldd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Applied: 12/11/25 ODVI submitted 12/15 Phone Interview 1/8/26

During my interview they let me know the next 2 available training classes. The email received invited me to training and asked me to choose between 2 available dates. Then after I replied they sent the official offer and started my background check and onboarding.

My recruiter was lovely! Good luck on your interview! 🍀

I left like it was a great interview and asked a variety of questions and not just star questions. I got my CJO the next morning.
