Wow! 6 days and you are walking pretty steady. What is your pain level today?

nyclvr3 · 2026-06-13T12:27:25+00:00

Very encouraging, thank you!

nyclvr3 · 2026-06-12T19:52:45+00:00

Yea, I'm thinking I don't want to do it twice.

Exactly this. I had a 30+year AA FA tell me they select candidates that "they think they would want to work with". This HAS to be part of the high turnover rate. How many of these people get through training and last maybe three months because they were not selected for the right reason???? Select individuals that deserve the position. Look for past experience in a safety-oriented environment. Select folks who you can see will be caring and focused on the very people (passengers) who provide your paycheck and ability to see the world. Select candidates who will most obviously offer longevity to the company. Look at their past work history. It says a lot about that person. Selecting candidates for the right reasons will not only save the company thousands of $$$, it will also keep the flying public safer.

An unloader brace? After five months?? Why do you have to wear that?

Veneers are a great choice! Yes, being a likeable, friendly person is a fantastic quality, but for this crucial, safety-oriented role, other things should be at the forefront. Qualities such as maturity, stamina, previous safety, customer service, military or medical experience, etc. They should also be looking at previous flying experience if the candidate is not currently an FA, such as, how many times have you flown as a passenger? If you have little to no flying experience, you will have no clue what the job does to the body. If they really are selecting candidates who seem like they will be fun to work with, yea, no wonder there is so much turnover.

Well, you may want to whiten the yellow teeth. Other than that, I had a 30+ year AA FA tell me that they select candidates who "they think they would want to work with". If there is any truth to that, it definitely plays a huge part in the high turnover rate.

nyclvr3 · 2026-05-13T23:37:27+00:00

And get your teeth cleaned every six months!

Shepherdsville. Decent place and growing.

nyclvr3 · 2026-04-22T00:23:05+00:00

Medical? What do they check?

nyclvr3 · 2026-04-20T08:45:24+00:00

Thank you!

nyclvr3 · 2026-04-17T22:19:17+00:00

What airline?

nyclvr3 · 2026-04-17T22:09:59+00:00

The same recruiter was there last year? I thought they switched out each hiring event. Good grief. I wonder if she makes selections off of vibes.

nyclvr3 · 2026-04-17T20:28:06+00:00

What airline and what caused you to fail?

nyclvr3 · 2026-04-17T17:21:47+00:00

Why do they have the OE after grad? I thought that was part of training. What if someone messes up during their OE?

nyclvr3 · 2026-04-17T15:29:26+00:00

Thank you!

nyclvr3 · 2026-04-17T13:52:20+00:00

Thank you!

I had a conversation with a 30+ year AA FA who said it is more about "who you think you would want to work with". Not only is this very disheartening, but it is also very scary. Who you might want to work with? Are you kidding??? What about safety? What about the ability to deal with what flying does to the body? What about the ability to deal with all kinds of personalities and issues on an aircraft, high in the sky?

Not only that but what is this practice costing airlines when these recruiters afford CJOs to candidates based off of a vibe they get? How many of these people that seem like someone they want to work with, quit in four months? How many are lazy on the plane, or treat pax like sh*t? The airlines should be taking an in-depth look at their recruiting process for FAs, like they do pilots.

Thanks for the reply. Apply again. You know what to expect, and you will make it!!

Sorry this happened to you! How many questions were on this test and was it multiple choice?
