Cabin Crew Open Day Preparation
A cabin crew open day, sometimes called a recruitment day or assessment event, is an in-person or online event where an airline meets candidates. Formats differ between airlines, so use this as general preparation and follow the airline's own instructions.
What is a cabin crew open day?
Events may include a short presentation, CV screening, group exercises and interviews, sometimes all in one day and sometimes in stages. Some airlines ask you to apply online first. Always check the official announcement for what is required.
Checklist before you go
Confirm the event on the airline's official site, read the instructions and requirements, prepare an up-to-date CV, valid ID and any requested documents, plan your route and arrive early, prepare your STAR examples and reasons for choosing the airline, and follow any presentation or dress guidance given by the airline.
On the day
Be polite to everyone from the moment you arrive, listen to instructions, take part positively in group tasks and answer questions honestly and clearly. Keep a calm, friendly manner even if the day is long or you have to wait.
Avoiding open day scams
Genuine airlines do not charge candidates to attend recruitment events or to be considered for a job. Be careful with events advertised only on social media or messaging apps, and verify anything suspicious directly with the airline.
Open days and recruitment events are announced by each airline, and dates, cities and requirements change. JobNeste does not guarantee interviews or job offers. Only trust events announced on the airline's official website, and never pay to attend.
