I feel like I'm very in tune with people's emotions and it has made me a better flight attendant for it. I try my best to take on the extra load to make things easier for the next person. I remember my passengers and allow myself to be open and approachable.

Stephanie's Feedback

Prepare for behavioral scenarios and operational questions that airline interviewers prioritize.
