I did Emirates interview twice, if I can advise people: Be servant, be honest, be kind.

[VyNguyen-mwbf]

When I was little I thought flight attendants were like superstars because they were all smiling, super kind, all freaking beautiful, tall with amazing outfits 🥺
And they'd take pictures with you 🥺

[catmando]

She got the job because of excessive cuteness and fun personality. If you are going to work with customers, need to smile. Grin and bear it, is the saying.

[annak]

No Jeenie luck did not get you hired. Your charisma did. You stand out from the crowd in every way, you are breathtaking inside out and the Emirates people obviously saw that miles away.

[randmayfield]

I am a retired hospitality instructor and this is a wonderful story and very well told. You never know where life will take you.

It's like America's Next Top Model but like.... to become a flight attendant

The language boost is real. I remember applying for the same IT position as another girl with very similar experience and because she knew Spanish and there were a lot of customers who spoke Spanish in the area, she got the job over me. I ended up getting a different position and I realized a lot of the people who worked at the service desk knew different languages. One guy was actually from Russia, another guy was fluent in German... it doesn’t come up every day but when it does, it matters.

That’s not why I learn languages, but it’s just another perk.

"out of thousands of applicants only 12 got job offers"

Literally had me like 😦😦😦

Honestly, slipping a secret Karen test in at the end after everyone was already exhausted was genius.

Not a Flight Attendant here but a pilot in the with 25+ years experience flying with my current employer and 40+ years in the industry. "Jennie.Weenie" absolutely "NAILS IT" (translation for those who do not understand the USA slang "NAILS IT" it means she is 100% correct-perfect score) regarding the flight attendant experience. "Flight Attendant world" is a different universe and Jeenie is the perfect ambassador! Thank you! And, I LOVE the insight you provide into the "Korean mom" and siblings family dynamics/culture. You provide some of the absolute BEST STUFF on the internet that I've found. Well done! - Respectfully

[Benyikoko]

I tried four times. The fifth time I got accepted♥️ If you want to become EK crew and you fail a couple of times; Don't give up!!!!

IT MUST HAVE BEEN SO AWKWARD TALKING TO YOURSELF SINCE YOU DIDN’T FILM!! 😂 🤣

This flight attendant interview sounds harder than the ninja exams from naruto

This is so weird - I work for a company in the middle east and when they interviewed me (IT position) in US, it was absolutely the most weirdest interview I ever experienced. Just like your situation, a large portion was a stress interview. The waiting room was jam packed, and this was a very large conference room with a stage. People were there suited and booted with briefcases filled with their previous work examples and I was there with slacks and shirt and had just my resume - resume they already had. When we were all waiting in the room, people would come out of the interview room completely disheveled. One guy came out and it seemed like he went into the restroom and splashed water all over his head.

My turn came, and there were three interviewers, very cold, one sternly stared at me without providing any facial gestures to my answers. They kept interrupting me with random questions, throwing me off my train of thought. "Why wasn't it done that way" "You dont have this on your resume, why?". They were also condescending to all my comments, like "oh thats an old technology" or "we dont do it that way at all". One interviewer left in the middle of the interview, came back later. Very very cold. I tried to complement some things I found on google about their company (to show Ive some some homework on their company) and they first pretended they didnt know what I was talking about, then said, oh that, that was so long ago, we dont even do that any more. Just completely blew me off. The key was patience! Patience! Patience!

I hated that interview but kept my professionalism and by the end, I was sure I didnt get the job. At the end, they abruptly said, "okay, were done, thanks for coming". I went outside to wait for the secretary to walk me out and interviewers took a break; when they came out, it was absolutely 180 degree change. Very cordial and weirdest part, the stern looking guy being the friendliest. They asked my hobbies, how I enjoyed my previous visits to the middle east, asked if I had any friends there. I was just like what the F is wrong with these people! I never went through this type of interview before. One guy sat in a couch next to me, I told him I don't think I did a good job, and he goes, don't worry about it.

The secretary walked me out and at this time, I couldn't wait to get back on the plane and go back to my life. She asked me how I did and I said, I dont think I'm going to make it. She said, she had a rough interview and didnt think she would get the job but they called her.


2 - 3 weeks later I get the call and... life has never been the same - in every way. 7 years now and counting. The interviewers are some of my good friends at work.

I guess this stress interview is something prevalent here?

한국에서 지니님 영상 재밌게 보고 있는 한 시청자입니다! 이 댓글을 읽으실 지는 모르겠지만..ㅎㅎ 처음에는 youtube shorts를 통해서 틱톡에서 찍으신 영상들만 보다가 최근에 유튜브 전용 영상도 보고 있는데, 어떻게 이런 20분이 넘는 분량의 영상에, 따로 화려한 편집이 없는데도 너무 집중이 잘 되고 영상이 너무 흥미로웠어요! 주제가 제가 접해보지 못한 분야라 그런건지, 아니면 모국어가 아닌 영어 영상이라 그런건지는 몰라도, 진짜 너무 재밌게 잘 봤어요. 다른 한국 유튜브 영상은 화려한 영상 편집이 없으면 지루하다는 생각이 들 때가 자주 있는데, 이 영상 보면서 진짜 '와 어떻게 편집 없이도 이렇게 재밌고 집중이 되는 영상을 만들지?' 라는 생각을 직접적으로 할 정도로 너무 놀라웠습니다. 저와 같은 한국인 시청자에게 재미도 주시고 영어 공부를 할 기회도 주셔서 정말 감사합니다! ㅎㅎ

Every since I was a kid my mom has told me she’s always wanted to be a flight attendant. When she graduated high school she went to an open day for an airline and they LOVED her. But she was 5’0 feet tall so they said no. It crushed her. She still thinks about it and wishes she was taller.

[maomi]

Jeenie: *talking about coming back on second day*
Also Jeenie: *literally records on the next day*

My cousin's daughter was hired as an Emirates flight attendant years ago. She stayed on for quite a few years before she resigned but she definitely enjoyed her time there ☺️

[abigaelwhite]

She has an amazing, open, and personable attitude... I guarantee that’s a huge part of why they picked her and why she’s so good at service. I’ve worked in service and that aspect is so effortful for me 😂
