Hey, read your posts in the forum, don't worry too much. Just go for the interview. You got nothing to lose. I am ex-CX crew for more than 10 years, with EK now.
Just FYI, prepare to work long hours, there are few catergories of crew not in terms of rank. But in terms of condition of work and hours, You will be regard as hourly paid crew, they are some permanent crew like me. Your pay will be different. You are right about most junior crew are from hk. don't worry about education backgrounds. you will do fine. Just show up with a lovely smile, be confidence, be yourself. enter the industry with broad mind. Let me tell you, you deal with varies nationality,varies passengers background, so if you think you can't handle minor comments from your colleagues or the company, then you probably better off somewhere else.
Malvin is right, London based crew don't get paid well.
Truth to be told., Many crew resigned from CX very often, cos' they can't deal with low paid long hours, bear in mind, Hk Economy has recovered, so a lot of this new uni Crew resigned and stay in hkg to find better job with better pay.
If there's any consolation, even if you fail at CX interview, pls dont give up, try other airlines....good luck
