Practice 37 Flight Attendant interview questions covering safety scenarios, customer service, and teamwork.

WRITTEN BY RACHELLE ENNS
QUESTION 12 OF 37

What are your compensation expectations?

"I'm a realistic person, there's no reason I should ask for something silly like 100,000. Right now, Delta Airlines values me at an annual salary around 45,000 and I earned a salary increase of 15% within my first year. I'm confident that, if I'll have the privilege of receiving an offer from British Airways, it'll be commensurate with the value that I bring to the company."

While your interviewer is looking to make sure they can afford you, if offered the position; it is almost always best that you let your interviewer know that you've done your research and that compensation isn't the only reason you are considering a role with them as a Flight Attendant. Answering this question can be tricky, and the wrong answer may disqualify you for the position, so be sure to keep your answer pretty generic and in line with what expectations are for the role.

"I did see the salary range posted for the position when I applied, and it meets what I am seeking financially. More important to me is a strong organization with values that I can align with, and I know I'll find those here at your airline."

Community answers are written by other candidates practicing this set. Reading how others frame the same question is one of the fastest ways to sharpen your own.
