How would you rate your people skills?
"Judging from my supervisors, my colleagues, and the number of passengers who smile happily at me when they're deboarding, I'm confident that I have wonderful people skills. I'd rate myself a 9 out of 10, because of that. I give myself one point of room to improve, because we can always strive to be better."
The most successful Flight Attendants are often those who have great interpersonal skills and the ability to please passengers from all different backgrounds. Your interviewer will be looking to gauge your people skills during your interview process by asking questions that get at your ability to get along with and serve others. This question is very direct and open ended, so do your best to really sell your interviewer on the great people skills you possess that would lead to success in this role.
"I would rate my people skills a 9/10. In my previous role, my supervisor often commented positively on my ability to relate to our customers well and provide excellent customer service. I was taught from a young age to treat every person with respect and dignity, and these are values that I still carry with me to this day."

That is one of my best qualities. I am a people pleaser and empathetic. I am a problem solver so looking for solutions to problems is a challenge I like to take on.
