Interview blues

JUST KEEP TRYING!
I got in with my #1 choice of airline on my third attempt. After my second knock-back I joined as check-in staff, which I really enjoyed and which was a big help when I went for cc a third time. I went on to have a fantastic & very successful career until I gave it all up for dribbling chins, Pampers & sleepless nights ( just like flying, really!).
The most important thing is not to lose heart & to keep going for it.
When I think of some of the new entrants that I've flown with over the years & of those people whom I know who have tried to get in & failed, I despair of the so-called selection procedure.
Don't take it personally because interviews & selection days are notoriously fickle. Cabin services need dedicated, committed people like you, so don't give up.
Go again & try to enjoy the day as much as possible. Be yourself, don't give them what you think they want to see but what you really are, & above all, relax. They want to know that you can handle the pressure.

I wish you the very best of luck, I know exactly what you're going through.
