How to Become a United Flight Attendant in 2022! And what to expect during the interview
Ойын-сауық
United Airlines is going to begin accepting flight attendant applications soon!
In this video :
I'll announce when the United will begin accepting applications and some of the basic requirements
We will go over some company and branding information to help you with your resume and application
And I'll break down the current interview process, how to prepare, and what questions they'll ask!

One question they asked me is " tell me about a time you intentionally impressed someone or a group of people". Also, be prepared to be split into a group and set up a beverage cart as a team.
My live interview at Delta was dry lol my interview with United was so friendly and warm!

Abbie, thank you so so so much for making this video! I really appreciate you!
I’m a nurse and thinking about starting a career as a flight attendant after I retire from nursing. I just happened upon this video and found it so informative and you, very engaging. I’ve subscribed. Thank you!
Abbie, wow, thank you so very much for this video and all your tips! so appreciated
Thank you for this helpful information!😊
Hi Abbie! Another great vlogg!!! Very informative for people who would like to be a flight attendant. When I applied many many years ago all u had to do was to attend a face to face in front of 3 interviers at their office that was located on the field at the airport! I feel that the reason I did not get the job is because i was from a very close knit family
This was extremely helpful. The energy you project is captivating! Thank you 😁☕️✍️🏼
Thank you so much for all your help!! 😇
Thank you so much Abbie! I’m excited to hear United is more lax on their tattoo policy (saves me time in covering it up). I have a face to face soon and definitely needed this information to prepare. One step closer to my CJO! Wish me luck! 😊

One question they asked is 'tell me about a time you (intentionally) impressed someone or a group intentionally. What was the situation and how did you impress"
Thank you so much for this! I have my in person interview with United in October I’m so excited!! 😁
Thank you for creating a fun and informative guide to the interview process!
My profession uses both INTERpersonal and INTRApersonal as a common jargon within the job. Interpersonal skills focus on working with and making connections with others around you. You can add buzzwords like “worked as a lead sales associate to make intimate connections with our contractors” in your resume to trigger the interpersonal value.
I’m revisiting your older videos to prepare for my JetBlue interview this weekend. Eek getting the jitters!! 😆😆

Wow! Aviation is such a small world!
Commenting on your question/remark - “Interpersonal skills” is a term specifically used within Human Resources and Recruitment. It simply means having the social skills to interact with people across multiple demographics. Two synonyms would be “people skills” or “emotional intelligence”
Definition - Interpersonal skills are the behaviors and tactics a person uses to interact with others effectively. In the business world, the term refers to an employee's ability to work well with others. Interpersonal skills range from communication and listening to attitude and deportment. My definition - The way we effectively connect/ communicate with others. Also it’s Association of Flight Attendants and Sara Nelson (CURRENT United FA) is the International President of AFA-CWA. I just wanted to correct it’s not American Flight Attendants. Love this video! ❤️
Just realizing that your story of how you left United is exactly what happened to me with Frontier regarding crew scheduling, and I was also new. It's interesting bc although that happened, I will always have a soft spot for Frontier. But I received an offer with Alaska and will start training in a few weeks. 🙂

I was hired by United in November of 1986 but had to wait until March 88 to report to training. That was due to the lawsuit by the "McDonalds" who were fired because marriage rules. I was in the first class of new hires. We still had three of these nice ladies in my class. I flew until late 2004 when a back injury forced me to stop. Many of my friends are still flying. My advice is to focus on service and teamwork, not on yourself. When I went to the "cattle call" everyone was asked why they wanted to be a Flight Attendant, most said because it was that they liked people and loved to travel. Wrong answer! I stated I had been serving others in the restaurant industry and wanted to take it to i higher level and do service without thinking about tips.

Also, I went to Law school as a Flight Attendant, and had a great career as an attorney. (I commuted from DCA to Denver for school and back flying trips out of mostly IAD on the weekends. but that's another story for another post), I'm now retired, but the only job I miss is being a Flight Attendant. Good luck to all who apply.
Guam is a United Hub as well
I apply for the flight attendant back in January/February and I ended up to a live face to face interview (May 17) right away

How did it go
Just applied for a bilingual flight attendant position with United, so I am unsure if the process varies. After my application I received a link for an assessment. I completed the assessment to the best of my ability. Shortly thereafter I received an email from recruitment that I was not moving forward. I am currently in the hiring process for other airlines, and have passed all the assessments, and seem to do well with the interactive items. I found United's assessment to be much more generic, while leaving situational items more open to interpretation with minimal information provided to the applicant. Best of luck to everyone, I hope you achieve your dreams!

United is hiring now for flight attendants. It is the month of September 2022. 😊
What advice would you give to applicants considering starting a fresh and entirely new profile with airlines that they've been rejected by in the past? I'm wondering if seeing the number of times a candidate has been rejected creates a bias when recruiters review said candidate's existing profile
I understand that there are some airlines that don't pay for training, but too bad that it is unpaid. They need to realize that people are coming from different situations. Even it's not the full salary they should pay something. The stipend is not enough. You're working hard for them to be successful and to give our passengers the best experience. They should at least pay for training. Delta is one of them that does pay for training.
HNL and LHR too
So glad the Airlines did away with Weight Check, Piercings, Tatoos, Foreign Language Qualifications, It was soooooo Super Strict when I started.
United is 20 now!

I still haven’t heard anything back from United. Just a email saying they are backed up with scheduling interviews. and they have stopped excepting applications to focus on the ones that already came in.

Hey I had online face interview for delta January I didn’t get the job when do you think I should apply again. I’ve heard from previous flight attendant applied more than once just to get hired when do you think I should apply ?
Hi, I am thinking about possibly becoming a flight attendant, and I saw 2 posistions on united airlines, one said italian speaker only, the other one said greek speaker only, does that mean you have to speak those languages? I am not able to speak other langages so if that means that you have to speak those languages I will have to wait until a english speaking one opens. I am currently studdying airport codes because I want to know them before training if I apply and make it that far as learning them is rather hard, but I think I can learn them at least for the tests.
I made to the f2f interview with DELTA AND AA. I missed United announcement🥺 Going to Dallas tomorrow and to Atlanta next week😀😀😀😀😀. Am so nervous, hoping to make it t through 🤞🙏🏻🤞🙏🏻🤞🙏🏻🤞🤞🙏🏻

It's always better to be conservative at work. You're the face of the company and it's corporate so it's better to be professional.
Your passport has to have at least 18 months for United.
How old do you have to be to become a United airlines flight attendant? I see many sites saying different ages

I actually edited the video.to take out the 6 month rule information. After listening to more feedback, I'm not sure what the UA policy is. Some candidates seem to have received letter that say they can apply the time it opens and others say 60 days. So just follow what your email says. And good luck!
Hey! Can I send my resume and cover letter to you for your feedback?
I am confused I got an email after applying that is an assessment not video interview I guess maybe that is next

That's so great! Congratulations! Wishing you good luck on the interview! Unfortunately, I wasn't able to move forward! Can I ask if you submitted your FA application yesterday 2/1 as well? And if you had previous customer service experience on your resume? And, did you submit a resume or fill it out manually on the application? Sorry, if these questions are too personal and if you prefer not to answer, that's okay! Just hoping to know what made other candidates stand out or move forward to an interview for when I re-apply! Thanks!

For the group activity, your given a task to set up a beverage cart with a figure given, then will ask you a situational question as a group after setting up the Cart.
