I joined the line of candidates and a little after 7:00am, they began the registration process. This was followed by a presentation that lasted about 1.5 hours (I agree with the comments made by people saying that it was slightly inappropriate/unprofessional – BUT I still laughed and appreciated the humor. It definitely helped lighten the mood and calmed everyone’s nerves). After the presentation concluded, we dispersed into different rooms according to the color of the name badges we received (I believe there was blue, green, red and yellow). Just as described in the previous reviews, this is the “pageant “ portion of the process where you will speak in front of the entire room (there were about 60-70 people). If you pass this process, you will then be lead into another room where you will need to wait your turn for a “two on one” interview. I waited about an hour for this part and was lead back to the original room where I answered my pageant question. Two female recruiters interviewed me and I was with them for about 15-20 minutes at most. They will ask you to lift a 40 pound suitcase over your head, provide you with a piece of paper that contains the safety announcement and ask you to recite it to them (there will be a couple blanks you will need to fill in on your own), then the “Q&A” portion begins (I will provide the questions they asked me below). After you are finished, you are lead into the “decision making room”. I waited for about 15 minutes before I was lead out of the room with about 6-7 other candidates into the hallway. At this time, we were given the news that we had made it and were then lead to another room to begin the paperwork/fingerprinting/drug test process. I was there for a total of 11 hours – Make sure to eat a gigantic breakfast and drink loads of coffee!!! My tips: - Arrive at least an hour early. The earlier you arrive, the sooner you will get through the process if you make it to the face to face interviews. They see candidates (in order) according to their number they were given on their name badges – Mine was in the 30’s range and I waited about an hour for my interview. I heard some people had to wait up to three! - Mingle, mingle, mingle – And mingle some more. Don’t be fooled thinking that the interview process begins when you are speaking in front of the recruiters – It begins the moment you join the line for registration. They are watching you to see if you are a people-person, outgoing and can easily socialize with others. A flight attendant is someone who is going to be expected to connect with the public every single day and they want to see that you naturally possess this capability. - When you enter the room for the “pageant round”, PLEASE sit in the first row if possible. When I entered, the room was almost already full and I noticed that there was a seat still open front and center – Where I immediately sat. Don’t shuffle to the back of the room and hide. This is a small move you can make that will speak volumes – You are not afraid to go first, to be out in the open and be on display. I knew from reading Glassdoor prior to my interview that they would call us up row by row. This is extremely nerve wracking for most of us – Why not get it over with? When you go up, they ask you to state your name, the number on your name badge, fish a question out of the “fish bowl”, read it, give an answer that lasts about 15 seconds, then place it down on the ledge behind you. I noticed people were stating where they lived, where they went to school, forgot to state their number, placed the question back into the fishbowl.. Please avoid from doing any of this. What they are trying to see here is if you can follow simple directions, think quick on your feet, project your voice and remain enthusiastic – From what I gathered, this was all more important than the actual response to the question. - If you make it to the next round, please do not say “No” when they ask you at the end “Do you have any questions for us?” It will most likely seal your fate if you do this. Questions you can ask are: “What attribute would you say is most important for a Spirit flight attendant to possess in order to be successful at their job?”, “What do you enjoy most about your job at Spirit?”, “What are some challenges that you think every flight attendant faces and what can they do to overcome them?” - At the end of the interview, shake the hands of the recruiters and thank them for their time. They seemed a bit caught off guard when I extended my hand and it gave me the impression that the majority of others skipped out on this. I wish everyone the best of luck – If you do your research, familiarize yourself with what to expect, make the effort to be enthusiastic and outgoing, SMILE, be yourself and bring your best “you”, you should have no problem acing this interview!
