In five days I have an interview for a flight attendant jobs, it is open to the public. I'm very nervous, I do want to get this job very much. I do read up a lot and prepare by myself. I do not know anyone in this field. I'm here for 7 years, US citizen, speak-write Hungarian, Romania, speak a little bit Italian. My English is ok. This job is one of my 18 years dream, after I saw an airplane movie with flight attendants, when I was 19. Any advice will be welcome! I appreciate your time on helping me out!

I really want to become a flight attendant. I live in San Francisco. I understand that flight attendant jobs are difficult to get. Any advice would be helpful. I have seen a few flight attendant job finders online that cost money. I am willing to pay if it gets me a job, but don't want to shell out money to a hoax, anyone know how useful these are?

I live without two hour driving distance of Buffalo, Rochester, and Toronto airports. About three hours driving distance from Cleveland airport. Is it possible to be stationed in any of these areas for a flight attendant job though? I don't understand the concept of being "stationed". Is it only at the airport's headquarters or could it be any airport that serves the airline?

Well, pretty much the question above, I am just going to finish my A levels soon, I live alone right now anyway, I was wonder if over the summer I could get some training and then start working and if it were possible to maintain a flight attendant job whilst I am studying at university. I obviously don't intend to fly international flights just, around Europe.

I am (possibly) going to flight attendant open house tomorrow. I have a letter of recommendation from a pilot I dated who works for the airline. He emailed 4 of the 5 recruiters that will be at the job fair about me. I have NO college degree. My experience is limited to waiting tables (6 years) and being a nurses assistant (2 years). I do NOT speak any other language. I do meet all the basic requirements. When I told I was debating not going, he got mad at me, saying he stuck his neck out for me and the least I could do is go. BUT, I will miss a double shift at work for this. It is an all-day thing. And it is 1.5 hours away. That is a lot to risk for a long-shot. I just feel like the odds of me getting this are not good enough. I never asked him to do any of this for me. I am thankful that he did, but I feel like I cannot compete with people that have college. What do you think? I am 26- years old.
