Phone interview by recruiter was a breeze. Just be honest & be yourself.
Mostly the type of questions you would expect about yourself, your experiences & how you handled certain situations.

Interview

I applied August 13, 2016 and received a phone call on August 29, 2017 from a very nice lady out of Atlanta asking me if I was still interested in the FA position with Southwest. I said yes, of course!! The recruiter said that I would be receiving a "read only" email within the next three weeks and I received it on September 11th. Now I'm waiting for a call or email to hopefully update my work info and schedule a phone interview. It is a very long process but well worth the wait. Southwest is a stellar company to work for and I would be truly honored to become a part of the SW family!! Just be patient and be prepared for situational questions using the STAR method...and know about the company.

Interview

I had a phone interview about 3 weeks ago and after the phone interview I got a call the following day saying I made it to the next step and someone would be in touch with me to schedule a face-to-face interview in approximately two to three weeks. I just did my face to face interview today. After signing in I was fingerprinted went in for a group session telling about the company and then we went back out into the waiting area where I conversed with the other applicants of while we waited to be called in for our interview. I was the first to be called in from our group. I was interviewed by two people was very pleasant they were both extremely professional very nice and went out of their way to make me feel comfortable. The interview lasted almost an hour and after that we stepped out and did the Practical portion where I had to step through an emergency exit door walk down an aisle simulating the airplane aisle and then sit in a jump seat and strap in after that I was finished and was told that I would hear something within 2 weeks.

Interview

Interview process was quite easy and relatively casual since there were no technical questions and the hr and the other team members make you feel at ease. They primarily go over your CV.

Interview

Pro: Flexible and accommodating in bringing you onsite
Con: Long wait in between sessions, repeated same interviews in person that were done on phone. After phone interviews with the same people had "gone well", they had me spend $1k+ out of pocket to fly there in person from overseas, then proceeded to tell me that they weren't comfortable with my level of experience in a particular product. That product experience had been discussed on the phone, so that was either not really the reason or they just wasted my money and a couple weeks of my time.

Then, rather than telling me they had passed, I found out when ANOTHER southwest recruiter contacted me for the same job position. Not a very professional experience overall, let a feeling of wasting my time and not being up front the first time around.

Interview

Applied online and after two days received an email to complete a long application form. Had to complete the online application by a pre-set and required due date. Also, got an email and voice message trying to set up an initial phone interview. The first phone call was less than one minute, just to set up an actual phone interview date/time. The second phone call began with a series of yes and no questions. They provide the salary upfront and want you to agree to it before any other interview questions are asked. The start salary was at $12/hour for the first 6 months and then salary would go up to $13/hour. I ended the process at this point since $12/hour is an extremely low salary!

Interview

When I arrived (be early), there was a gentleman who greeted me. He was an Ops. Agent, and asked if I had any questions about this job. It was good to talk to him while I waited for the interview (I had a very short wait). There was not a room full of people waiting with me for interviews (that was nice).
