Re: CruisyCabinChick
I'm sure you're very objective when it comes to your friends but I have to say your opinion "she's incredible" means little in aviation recruitment. Or any kind of recruitment really. You have to remember that every carrier has it's own target for personality, temperament, experience and attitude. While your friend might be perfect for the 'opposition', maybe she just doesn't have what QF wants.
That doesn't necessarily mean that the recruiters there didn't give her a fair chance. No-one likes a rejection and it's very difficult not to take it personally. Kind of short sighted though to pull out your own application on the basis of your friend not being a good fit. You might be just what they are looking for. Have you tried applying for her airline? If they rejected you would you be equally disgusted?
People get jobs where they are meant to get jobs and a rejection from one airline means only that her job isn't with them.
