I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Air Canada (Ottawa, ON) in Jan 2022
Interview
There is an initial written interview where they assess your previous work/educational experience. Then there is an in-person interview, diving deeper into why you want to work for the company, and employer expectations.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Provide an example of a time you had to organize competing tasks.
Fair but alot of questions. Be prepared with many scenarios that demonstrates customer service and your ability to react to emergencies. Being friendly and dress appropriately is also very important
The interview process comprises an initial group meeting with all applicants, followed by a concise overview of Air Canada. Subsequently, the larger group will be segmented into two or three smaller units for individual interviews. These interviews are designed to assess your interpersonal skills, cognitive processes, and professional bearing. You will be presented with a scenario for discussion, followed by a video analysis focusing on a flight attendant's actions, requiring you to evaluate their appropriateness.
It was a great experince doing an interview, even though I didn’t make the cut during the last interview for Air Canada. Overall it was a great journey. It does bring my hopes up because I lasted till the finals.
