Is appearance everything?

Is Appearance everything?

Hello everyone,

Over the past few months I have been talking to people about my chosen career path of cabin crew. Many people believe that the whole career is “amazing” and that many qualities are needed in order to be successful.

However, many of those have said that it’s not qualifications as such, but it’s how you present yourself as a person, e.g., appearance and personality. Many say appearance overpowers personality. This has got me thinking whether this is for me. I know many are to respond saying, “personality is the main thing, don’t worry,” but is it really?

I do have qualifications, well, learning and gaining them through college and I do hope that I am able to be cabin crew, but I can’t stop thinking whether appearance will be my downfall.

Have you ever had any insecurities about this?
