TOP 6 Things to make your fresher CV shortlisted & How to write flight attendant resume for the cabin crew job position in airlines?

If you're someone who has a work experience I believe that my tips over here will be equally important to you. Here you will find out how can you make your CV shortlisted and attend the assessment day. Make your CV with a beautiful photo of yourself in which you're smiling, you are shining with confidence.

• BEST PASSPORT SIZE PHOTO: Please very important follow the guidelines on my post over here in which I'm suggesting to you how you should be looking at the passport size photo you will never go wrong if you start your CV with the passport size photo with the smile. I again emphasize the smile is very important and it's going to be one of the factors that will determine whether you are going to be selected to attend that assessment day or not. Please pay attention do not put a photo that you have taken in a way that looks like a selfie. I've seen candidates starting with the photo in which they have taken a selfie actually which looks totally unprofessional.  They don't smile with the teeth and they haven't been shortlisted. So please pay attention to the quality of the photo that you're going to have in your CV after you have to put your beautiful photo in which you have followed the guidelines that I am telling you in my post over here. 

• CV COVER LETTER: Here comes the next part where you should write a small cover sentence that it's going to be easy to read the recruitment team, who does not go to each and every paragraph. This is in case you are presenting the CV at an open day, but if you are definitely uploading your CV to your profile it is equally important that you have a cover sentence not necessarily long but it should be a strong one. So let's say I'm applying for Etihad Airways. What type of cover sentence I should write will not be the general, but it will be an Etihad Airways website in particular the career part I'm going to read for you. One very powerful sentence over here and I'm going to give you an idea of a short cover letter that you perhaps can make it and feel free to modify. You will not sound the same. "We don't just have a passion for travel we have a passion for people. We're looking for committed people to join our team, but we are equally as committed to helping you reach your full potential". Again, as i said one very powerful sentence if I was a candidate who applied for Etihad Airways, my career would sound like this I'm a person who doesn't only possess a passion for travel but I also have a passion for people. I'm looking for a job within the multinational team. In which I can be part of people who are committed and where I can grow and I can show my full potential and my skills that I have gained perhaps in the university that you are mentioning in your CV. A very small cover sentence, but in that case when you're using words and sentences from the airline and particularly over here they are expressing on what types of candidates they're looking for. You're basically serving yourself to the recruitment team as someone who is perfect. The perfect candidate for the cabin crew role of the airline you're applying is a bottom line. This part of my post is ladies and gentlemen always write your cover centers using paragraphs from the email, from the website of the airline you want to apply for. Remember do not copy paste the entire sentence rather than use words that are going to express you and are going to demonstrate you as the candidate that they are looking for.

• EDUCATION: The third part of your CV is your education. Well, many of you over there will be telling you that you're supposed to put your work experience in this case you do not have a work experience. So we will go with the education write your highest degree of education that you have but remember if you possess a PhD perhaps it would be nice. If you put your bachelor's degree if it's related to customer service if your PhD is related to customer service or hospitality then please by all means do mention it, but make sure you are very careful when you're putting your latest degree as you don't want to be also look that someone who is overqualified by education so no matter which education you have and you supposed to actually have a bachelor degree. Bachelor degree as a minimum because you do not have a work experience and the skills that you're going to be presenting in your CV should be equal to that time that you have spent in education because if you have not been working then most probably you have been studying. The airlines have the minimum age requirements of 21 years, so therefore in this case as a compensation of your work experience would be an education which is your bachelor degree. So make sure you write that nicely with all the details about your last education and the contact number.

• KEY SKILLS: The most important part comes in CV is about your skills. When you're applying online the application you're required to put your key skills and there is no joke when they ask you for your key skills as the airline want to know what are you able to do and are you actually someone who possess key skills to be part of the cabin crew job. Remembering that team remember in my previous post over here I have given an idea on what are the key skills required for the cabin crew role feel free to go through it, but then again, I'm going to emphasize even in this post if some of the key skills does not belong to you even if your CV gets shortlisted because you can honestly write it down later on when you go and speak to the recruitment team and when you will be presenting yourself if they see that  skills actually doesn't belong to you. You will be eliminated so therefore my suggestion is to have 8 to 10 key skills in your CV and those key skills that will be in your CV make sure you write the same key skills in your online application as that is something that the system will recognize your online application contains the key skills and your CV contains the same key skills which are required to become a cabin crew again please have a look on my post over here and again my strong suggestion is write the key skills that you are actually good at and that you know how to display them while you will be answering the questions to the recruitment team.

• HOBBIES: One important part of your CV that perhaps you haven't paid attention to are your hobbies. The hobbies is something that will definitely present you as a person with outgoing personality and great interpersonal skills. You have to put hobbies that totally belong to you. I hope that you actually do and not hope is that you actually have to copy paste it. I'm going to give you a list of hobbies that would present you as a person without outgoing personality and great interpersonal skills, but again if they don't belong to you, you shouldn't write it down, because later when the recruitment team will be holding your CV they might ask you about a certain hobby of yours. You might get blind and you might not be able to answer. So therefore please write the hobbies that are relevant to you that you would love to do and I'm sorry to say this in the aviation industry in particularly in the job description called the cabin crew there is absolutely no room for introverts because your job is related to communication with people and in all the cabin crew requirements beside love, for passion beside being surrounded with people it's written that you should possess an outgoing personality and you should have great interpersonal skills. Socially interactive hobbies would be going to concerts, would be taking yoga classes or any other sports activities that are in a group going to comedy shows where there is a lot of laughter, going to language courses basically a hobby that are related to groups and know hobbies that are asking you to have an interaction with people because this is actually what you have been you wanted to do and as i have mentioned the social interaction is an important part of our cabin crew role. Therefore choose your hobbies in your CV wisely.

• LANGUAGE SKILLS: Last part of the CV that I suggest is languages write down all the languages that you speak. Many of you are going into details as writing with that show much you're speaking the language I suggest you don't do it either write fluently or your basic depend on the level of the communication. As a recruitment team will not sit and watch and evaluate the dots on how much you are speaking the language you just feel free to name the language that you are speaking and perhaps when you will be interacting with the recruitment team you can tell them how fluent you are in that language, where you have learned the language. This is something very important when the recruitment team will be looking at your CV. If you're let's say participating in an open day they can actually catch up any paragraph on your CV and they can ask. You have to be very well prepared to speak about your CV and the paragraphs and the things that you have mentioned it inside and at no point of time you should look insecure while you're talking about your CV because your CV is actually you. Now fresher who does not have a work experience it will be nice if you can divide everything into two pages so therefore you look like a person with a little higher credibility than someone who just does not have any work experience with having all these things.

Please don't forget to comment down your outcome of the CV that you have made. It is perhaps using my format over here, and if you have gotten shortlisted please do let me know and remember do not underestimate the power of each and every paragraph in your CV.

Thank you for reading this post.
