I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at United Airlines (Houston, TX) in Oct 2016
Interview
Only one-word study and study follow glass door site questions ,that’s all for success to go to second round for hiring process. I did good preparation but I don't think it's good idea very tough to give answer on webcam, I don't believe it’s a good idea to take webcam interview for the customer service position because that’s position required face to face interaction with customer on daily basis, In my opinion only and the only face to face interview is great to evaluate right candidate for customer service related position.
Please wish for me to get invitation for face to face interview then I prove why I am good candidate for flight attendant position with United...............
On-demand virtual interview, 1:1 virtual interview, F2F interview day w/ group activities. Nothing was tricky, but it took about 1.5 months in total. There is also a language exam for those applying to a speaker position.
