I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at United Airlines (Houston, TX) in Jan 2013
Interview
Interviewed a few years back. Didn't get offer then I always say it was because I didn't buy the water they had for purchase. Not because it was a trick but because by the time I got to my 1-1 they immediately hand me a an announcement to read and my mouth was so completely dry on top of being nervous. That threw my whole interview off BUT the experience was great and people were very friendly . I was sent back to airport after that first interview and did not get offer. Last week I recieved an email inviting me to interview again which I'm really excited for! Going to San Fran monday interviewing tuesday afternoon March 3. Hopefully this time is much better ! I have heard the process has changed.
I applied online. I interviewed at United Airlines (Koreatown, Los Angeles) in Jun 2026
Interview
It was streamlined and honestly a very easy process. The company kept you up to date on your application and made it known what part of the process you were currently in.
Training looks great, training staff was awesome. They care about their potential flight attendants passing training . Pay attention do your homework and you will pass with flying colors. If this is something you really want United has great benefits although there’s long hours, but if this is what you decide to do then stick with it and you’ll be OK
I applied online. I interviewed at United Airlines
Interview
it only took a couple of days before i received the email invitation for the online interview. the online review from others helped at the same time made me quite nervous as well. it has disadvantage if one pays too much attention and only concentrate on these... it's been a week since i had my online interview. haven't heard anything. wish me luck.
