I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Air Canada (Vancouver, BC) in Oct 2017
Interview
Language assessment in both English and mandarin. However, they didn't tell me any future steps for interview. Maybe I failed already. Is there anyone has the same situation? Kindly let me know.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
English part: why apply for this position? R u currently working and what do u do and what's the biggest challenge in your job now? What did u do yesterday and today (please be specific)?

Fair but alot of questions. Be prepared with many scenarios that demonstrates customer service and your ability to react to emergencies. Being friendly and dress appropriately is also very important
The interview process comprises an initial group meeting with all applicants, followed by a concise overview of Air Canada. Subsequently, the larger group will be segmented into two or three smaller units for individual interviews. These interviews are designed to assess your interpersonal skills, cognitive processes, and professional bearing. You will be presented with a scenario for discussion, followed by a video analysis focusing on a flight attendant's actions, requiring you to evaluate their appropriateness.
It was a great experince doing an interview, even though I didn’t make the cut during the last interview for Air Canada. Overall it was a great journey. It does bring my hopes up because I lasted till the finals.
