How interesting! Love how you broke down the job application requirements. I briefly thought about becoming a flight attendant but I couldn’t do it. I don’t want a job where I’m constantly thinking about my mortality. 😐
Glad you found it to be! aw sorry about that. I know flying scares many people, but if every potential flight attendant thought about that nobody would work in the job haha. Flying is actually much safer than driving.
Oh nice! You're welome. That's awesome. Sometimes I miss the job - though we didn't have stopovers. Will you be on short haul, long haul or a mix of both? All the best for it 😊
Loving your videos Tabitha! I've wanted to be Cabin Crew since I was little and now I'm almost 16 and applying for college in the UK. I am thinking of applying for 'Travel & Tourism, with Cabin Crew Training.' Really excited to apply and really excited to hopefully get in the skies a few years from now. Love your videos, keep it up!
Ha. You explained it pretty well. Also Ryanair CC here. Also trained in Hahn. I applied May and after 2 weeks I was sent on a training course. Madness but fun. Certainly learn alot about independence.
My goodness I thought I had replied! That training course was indeed madness lol!! Like nothing I have ever experienced haha. And being in Hahn was surreal/bizarre experience but I certainly learnt alot! Hope you're doing well now that all aircrafts are grounded 😊
Hi Tabitha! 🙂 Hope you're doing well Thank you for sharing all your information and experience of working for Ryanair 🙂 All you have said is helping me to get ready for my interview which is on the 20th of July :) Thanks! Take care 😚❤️!
Hey Tabitha! I've been binge watching your CC videos for the past day haha. I have a question regarding glasses. I know they accept contact lenses, but would there be a problem if I wore my glasses at the interview/training(if i were to be accepted)? Have a lovely day ✨
Tabitha thank you very much for the information you are sharing with us! I have a question about the documents you have to bring on your first day of course. What do the mean by school references? A certificate that you attended that school or a letter from a teacher talking about you!?
You are very welcome. A reference letter from your school is basically a letter recommending you. Definitely search up the term for a much better explanation 😊
Hi love all your videos I'm currently going through the recruitment process for Ryanair. Got a question though. Do you ever have time to see the destinations you go to? Even if it's a few hours or do you even get over night there sometimes? Also do you get a certain amount of free flights a year or discount at all
In general, no overnights. You return to your base every day. The only time you would ever have an overnight is if you were called to operate from another base or if you ran out of operating hours during a working day. Those occasions are very rare.
Hi Tabitha, thank you for you video, it´s extremely useful. Can I ask about teeth requirements? My teeth are not ok (ive got pretty smile with no spaces but a lot of cavities which needs to be repared). Do you think it may be a problem? Do you have to visit a dentist before training?
This is so clarifying! I have a little question. I've applied to some flight attendant vacancies in the UK and Ireland, I've done an on-line english test, and scheduled a 1 to 1 interview which will happen soon. But how do I know to which base (city/country) am I doing this interview for? Is it in general and then if I pass, i'll be assigned a random base to do the training, like you were? Thank you! I love your videos!!
Hi! First of all thank you for the time you dedicate about this life opportunity... but what about male clothing on the recruitment day? I didn't receive any advice, what should i wear?
Hi Alessandro. You are very welcome. You need to wear smart clothes. Suit trousers/ Chinos and a longsleeve shirt and tie will be good enough. Clothes must be clean and without wrinkles. Smart shoes of course. Be clean shaven or with a full but neatly styled beard. All the best!
Hi tabitha can you answer my question it’s really important as I’m doing to the training course in Paris Ryanair is asking me all the references from all the jobs I did with stamps but some of them don’t even speak English or change countries ??
Hi Zoey, I think you may need to get your documents translated. Usually you only need 2 references so I don't know why they are asking for more than that. It will start to get costly to officially translate so try to confirm that they actually need more than 2 references.
It's actually pretty good! Especially because you get to rest more if they don't call you on a home standby day. If you have the support you could still become a cabin crew. A few of mu ex colleagues had kids.
Hi there, I’m a big fan. What about man with long hair, do we have to cut off or braids they allow?? My hair is curly as long. Do I have make to make a bun??
Hey Edy, that's awesome. Thank you! Yes you have to have it tied back or cut short. When I was training, girls had to cut their hair to a certain length (above mid-back) if they wanted it in a ponytail. As for braids they need to be very neat, tied back and only 1 colour. Dreadlocks are still not allowed.
Hey, Tabitha! I'm from Brazil, but it's been a month i got my Portuguese citizenship and EU passport. I applied for Ryanair last Wednesday and they sent me an email to do the online written test today. Right away i started looking for informations from ex-cabin crews and found your CZcams channel. I believe all the assessment steps are going to be online, due to quarantine, except for the training. Is there any other tip you could give me about doing this steps online? Thank you for your content. It definitely helped me.
Hello Dumont, I did all my training in person so I really don't know about doing those steps online. I can only imagine it being a little more challengin because you are alone. Just try to work on it like any other test and pay attention to details. I wish you the best 🙂
Ryanair must be experiencing even more challenges as a relatively new participant in the aviation industry! Am I missing something,are you just sharing your experience with them or are you still working for them in some capacity?
hey I saw your video and rl enjoyed it, im going to have an online enterview with ryanair and I was wondering, lets supose I get accepted, about the passaport I have got a little issue cause I have applied for the passaport here in portugal but due to covid 19 It got delayed so I dont think Im going to have it in time for the assessment day :/ and I dont rl know what I should do...
I think you will definitely need the passport to start working. You might still be able to go on the training course but you will not be able to start working. Call them up or email to confirm and they will let you know. I wish you the very best!
Tabitha! Please help me to understand, if i have approx 15 cm big tatoo on my ankle, but I can cover it with tatoo concealer, is it okay for ryanair? Now waiting for their answers and don't know what to think about that.
Hi! I’ve been watching your videos. They gave me two date options for the training, however I don’t know if I will have the results of my medical exams before the date of the training. If I can’t on those two dates, will I be excluded? Is the written reference from every previous employer mandatory? Thank you!
Thanks for the tips, Tabitha. I was invited to a recruitment day next week here in Valencia and the email instructions are pretty brief. They mention the CV, passport and full-length picture thing, but they don't mention how long it's going to take like they did for you and they don't specify anything about what to wear or whether there will be any kind of test, so thank you for talking about that I guess😅. By the way, what would be the clothing requirements for men? I think you only talk about female attire in the video. Also, do they pay the flight to the training course if it's not in the country where you're living right now?
I think the assessment day takes the whole day. Day from 10am - 4/5pm. I just checked the photos I took that day and the time shows 10am to about 4pm but the day could have started earlier and ended later. For men, I think a shirt, tie and smart trousers and shoes will do. Be well groomed, nice haircut, facial hair shaved or neatly styled. Short and clean fingernails, clean teeth, no smokers breath, freshly showered, with antiperspirant deoderant applied to the armpits after. Sorry I know it sounds obvious, but hygiene is quite important. As for test, the only test I remember is the English test. I guess if they haven't given it to you online then perhaps it will be on the day.
Hey, you're very welcome. I think you will need to renew your visa if possible. You need to have the right to live and work in the UK without any restrictions.
today they asked a cabin crew classmate to explain a situation related to general knowledge of airplanes, mechanics and engineering she didn't understand the scenario so when she asked him to repeat he told her to try another time. It was online, she had to dress in cabin crew uniform hair and makeup...stand up for them etc. but no interview questions team building questions, or theory that is specific to cabin crew...something also about the cockpit and pilots...i don't know cuz they really caught her off guard not doing an interview as we were taught and explained and hear. I cant even sign up for the crewlink sight because even though i have permanent residency in Spain my passport is American ughh cant even send my cv so frustrating. The majority of companies ask for 1'65 cm and ryan air 1'67.. Im 1'66. I dont know about that them assigning you a base city in any country without u being able to choose...They are a low cost company and pay not including flying hrs the same pay the average person makes at any job in Spain.🤷♀️🤷🏼♀️ they sound a little picky and high maintenance for what they have to offer.
Wow, that's tough. They have obviously changed the requirements since my 'time' there. I do not remember answering such questions. I don't think your height will be a problem because I worked with people shorter than 167cm - unless they have become stricter on that too. I think base assignment rules have changed because of Brexit. They are quite picky, but not as picky as other airlines. It's really up to you to decide if you want to do the job or not now that you have this information. Maybe you could apply for another/international airline if not having an EU passport is hindering you.
Hey! I just did my interview, I'm wondering of when they tell you to do a training course you can chose from different dates or they assing you a specific day where you can not choose and have to request it to do a different date
They offer you a training course start date and you can choose if you want to accept it or not. You can also tell them you want to wait for a future training date and they will let you know when it is.
Hi thank you.😊You explained very well. I am from mozambique and my Dream is to became a British airways cabin crew And i'm still workin' on my English 🤗
Hey 😊 it's 158.4 / 5'2". I just checked online for that info. I'm not too sure if they are flexible when it comes to height. Would probably best if you got in touch with them and asked about it.
What if you’re successful but not all references respond ( one company I worked for closed down ) are they strict with referencing and stuff ? Help pls xx
In the English test, you need to write in full sentences, answering the questions they present or explaining a scenario. That's it. Not too complicated but you must do it well enough to pass.
You definitely need to pass the swimming test, but it's actually not too hard. If you don't have that much confidence in swimming, please get so lessons or practice in beforehand. That could help.
You're very welcome. I really cannot say. I think you have to check the job description again and see if you meet the requirements. I have just seen it says "Applicants must have the unrestricted right to live and work in the UK if based in the UK upon successful completion of training". So it's not about your passport, but about your right to work in the EU and UK.
@@TabithaLaker they've withdrawn my application and interview. I just received an email from crewlink. This is the second time within the space of 3month. I guess it's a crime to be born in Nigeria. I feel sad and pained right now 😭😭 This is my dream job 😥
@@itunuayoimoleayo3353 oh I'm sorry about that. Maybe you could become a cabin crew for Emirates or Etihad? I think they both accept applicants internationally.
One question please, I’m a university student but I don’t need to go to the university so I’m always available, but what abt the ryanair recruiters they will accept a student or not?
Well I have a friend who was also a Masters student while working a flight attendant. She handled the workload very well, but of course they say they want you to be available and not have another job. Maybe studying if different. Please ask them for an accurate answer.
Hi I’ve applied for the Birmingham base vacancy and I am just wondering what should I wear to the assessment day if I am to be taken on for that ? And where do you do training ?
Hi you should wear smart clothes. Have manicured nails, red, pink or neutral lipstick & clean simple style hair. Just google "what to wear to cabin crew interview" and you will find many examples. Ryanair are more relaxed than other airlines, but you still need to be smart.
Tabitha Laker for the initial first day would I need somewhere within an hour of the airport or could I rent somewhere during or before the training course begins?
thank you for sharing your experience, i applied for Ryanair 2 times last year and i wasn't successful. is it difficult to get the job? this job is my dream and ive always wanted to work with Ryanair ever since i was at a young age.
Thanks for watching. For me and many others it is not hard to get the job, you do the hard work once you get to the training course. Did they give you feedback on the assessment day? Sorry you haven't had success with it yet.
@@TabithaLaker 700 euros with a roommate or just for yourself in the room ? Sorry to ask I have to go to Hahn next month and I don’t have a lot of information about the accommodation
I think scars in general are ok. But it's best to check with them to be sure. Training is now free. I applied via a job site listing posted by Crewlink, but you can apply anywhere the job is listed and in most cases it will be followed up by Crewllink.
Hello Tabitha, I had an interview last week where I passed and they told me they would send me an email to continue the process. Do you know how long this can take? since I haven't received anything yet. Thank you so much!
I think it will definitely take longer than a week, so just be patient. I think it took them 3 weeks to send me an invitation to the training course after the assessment day. However, I don't know the timeline of things these days.
@@TabithaLaker Hello Tabitha! I finally received the email with the date to take the training course. I responded, what date suits me best. Do you recommend I wait now? since they have not contacted me again and it is for May 16. Thank you so much!
I am not up to date on the latest rules regarding visa rules. The best thing to do would be to contact Crewlink or Ryanair directly for a specific and up to date answer.
I have recently applied for Ryan air and am now worried that I won’t be based at East Midlands air port as that’s 20 minutes away from me, what is the possibility that I will be based abroad? Xx
Hey, I think it depends on what the job listing said. If it said they you need to be prepared to work anywhere in Europe, then that will be the case. If you applied for a specific base then you will get that base. When I applied it said I need to be prepared to work wherever they sent me in Europe. But things have changed since, so that may not be the case for you.
Hi I've sent my application for a Ryanair at the end of March and I've passed my english test a couple days later. I've sent my cv, picture etc. (All requested documents) but I haven't got any answer. It's beed over 2 months now. Should I be worried?
Hey girl so the craziest thing happened to me on my interview today and I just want to get a second opinion on this because I haven’t read or heard of a single experience similar to that. So it was a zoom interview that, I felt like, went very well. The interviewer and I got along, we even joked around a little bit which is why towards the end of the interview, when I asked if he has any idea when the next training course starts and he answered “tomorrow” while smiling, I geniunely thought he was joking! I even joked too then and was like ‘ah yeah sure let me get up and head to Frankfurt asap’ and he laughed with me but then he was like ‘oh you’re laughing but it’s true, course starts tomorrow’. So I was obviously gooped and asked him if there was a chance to read this somewhere and he was like nope. And I told him there’s no way I’ll make it to arrange everything and be in Frankfurt in time tomorrow, it’s extremely unrealistic. And he was like okay I’ll see with the company, what can be done, maybe you can join on the third day or something. And then 2hrs later I got an email thanking me for the interview and that they will contact me ‘in the upcoming days’ regarding the next steps. Also, in the video that they sent me to watch, the woman says ‘bases are assigned 2 weeks prior to begin of training day’ - how the hell wasn’t he able to tell me my base then, lol?? How are they expecting for someone to make it to Frankfurt the next day when they just had the interview?? That must have been a joke or something, they also didnt give me a final decision today, so what the hell is going on 😂
@@jakubpieprzyk4062 yes! So sorry for the late reply. I ended up getting an E-Mail two days after, confirming my interview was successful and that they are inviting me to join training for Lauda in Hahn on May 20th. Back then, it was thankfully some time to think about it and plan ahead, however, I had to turn the date down due to personal reasons and asked them to please consider me for the next training, to which they responded that they will (fingers crossed!). Depending on who they want to recruit you for, the 20th really is two days away, so I hope they don’t actually want to put you through that!
@@sarahkim4062 yeah, I was also offered the 20th May and I am also not able to attend this training. So hopefully we will meet on the next possible training hahah
I have been thinking of applying for a college course in aviation, cabin crew and travel. The only thing im hesitant about is my height as i am 5’1 and im kind of scared i wont grow 😂 hopefully i reach past 5’3 as i havent reached 21 yet(age u stop growing ) but this video was extremely helpful and interesting, thank you! ☺️
Okay, so I have a question. Do they check how tall you are, because it says you have to be between 5”2 and 6”2 I’m 6”4. It’s a strange because some airlines like Jet2, Tui, Virgin etc don’t have a maximum height restriction but some do 🤷♂️. Great video by the way 😄.
I don't recall them checking but perhaps that was because they could literally see I was between those heights. It might be a little difficult working in the aircraft if you are 6'4" but still you could contact them and double check. Thanks for tuning in and I wish you the very best 😊
Tabitha Laker - Thanks, I think I will apply for Jet2 when all this is over. The only thing that puts me off Ryanair is not knowing where you will be based 😄
@@elliottcurrie7025 That is definitely off-putting, but you can apply, attend the assessment day and then find out the base once they offer you a place on the training course. Doesn't mean you need to accept it.
Hey! If I haven't worked with a contract yet, should I still mention my experience? Bcs if they ask for a recommendation letter, I don't think I'll be able to bring it 😅
I don't really know about green passport. Please check the job description. It should be extremely clear - I just found this: "Applicants must have the unrestricted right to live and work in the UK and travel freely throughout the network, this includes Pre-Settled status holders." If this is you, then you're good to go!
No unfortunately they do not provide accomodation once you are a cabin crew. They do provide accomodation options during the training course (that you need pay for). But after that, you are on your own.
I think it's more about your status and if you have the unrestricted right to work in the EU/UK. Please check out the job description/requirements on their website.
Hi, I’ve applied for cabin crew and I’ve passed my English assessment and I have interview on Tuesday 6th April. I want to know if they paid for your flight to Germany or you have to pay it yourself xx ?
@@urvashivaja8250 You are going to have to be more specific about what you are asking. I felt the second question you asked, was very similar to the first.
@@TabithaLaker well, I will tell them on my interview that I want to be base in Lisbon, where I live, otherwise I won't even start it. let's see. My interview next week
@@edgarsjucysify Hi, I'm having my interview on Sunday, and I also plan to tell them I want to be in the Cologne base, otherwise I won't take the job... How did it go for you? Were they understanding?
You answer the questions according to what they ask. Maybe look up typical cabin crew interview questions. I don't specifically remember the wording of their questions.
Hello Davide, Working for them was ok, but I am not flying anymore. I wish you the best for their answer. Everyone has a different experience. The thing that will keep you there is willpower and determination and it being a passion because there are no typical cabin crew perks. I hope that helps.
@@traveladdicted2310 oh okay ! Is like a standby list ? 👀 after the video interview how long did it take to get an answer ? Cuz I got mine few days ago and I’m really nervous 😂
Hey Tabitha are you still flying? How has covid affected you in terms of flights and salary/ job security? I'm a flight attendant in south Africa and I'm curious how other FAs around the world are being affected Edit, I just read your description hahahaha nice video!
Ah great you read the description. Almost all Ryanair aircrafts are grounded apart from a limited few to England, Ireland, Germany & The Netherlands. Existing staff have taken a 50% paycut and many have been layed off completely. Ghost flights have been operating in order to save money keep planes serviceable. That's pretty much a summary of goings on. Do you plan on Changing careers or continuing to fly after the crisis?
With Icelandair you need to be able to speak Icelandic fluently. Well with Ryanair, staff treatment is different according to who you are. Because of their need to constantly recruit, it gives many people the opportunity to become flight attendants very 'easily'. Some people stay for a long time and other move on to better airlines once they have the training and experience under their belt.
Thanks for the reply 😆 That’s kinda stupid that Icelandair wasn’t an opportunity for you 🙁 But you got by 🤪 Are you flying for another airline at present? ✈️ Did you fly 4 sectors often?
@@ruperthess7238 yes, but it's understandable. I had only been in Iceland for 10 months when I started apply for cabin cre jobs. I definitely wasn't fluent in Icelandic. I am no longer flying. Yes I used to fly 4 sectors often. It's pretty standard for most Ryanair bases.
@@TabithaLaker another question please, if you know of course...i ve succesfully passed my interview on June...i informed them many times that i can attend a training after 15 of July but they send me every arranged training before.15 till now....so i respond every time that i cant before 15.... Is there.any danger to stop sending me new trainings invitations ? I want to be sure i wont lose my chance to get in Ryanair....😐 Also the last invitation was for lauda but i wamt ryan.... Thanks in advance for ur help
Hello dear, Do you think is a problem to have a tattoo above the ankle? I know some airlines do allow that, but about Ryanair i´m not sure at all. Thank you and stay safe.
Micha Ela, Hej! I feel you cos I have 1 in exact the same place! Medium black tattoo (definitely visible... 😬😅) just above ankle. thought Im gonna give a try anyway tho... and I have online interview with Ryanair in 2 days (Thursday) will see what they tell me... I can let U know if U want 💜x how about U? Did U apply or not sure ?
@@jennymartheelisabeth ohh baby. Mine is also black medium definitely visible 😂😂 what a stupid idea, I did it with my ex 5 years ago.

Hello Thabita, thank you for all of this information.... i really want to become a cabin crew, but the problem is .....(I've got two tattoos on my arms! Is this a big problem?
Hiiii.....i have applied for Ryanair ... They have selected my cv and today I gave english test.... Now I'm getting nervous for my height have 158cm And I'm skinny 🥺🥺🥺 this will be my first ever interview for cabin crew....... Did they give accommodation on training period?? .... Or they pay for and which things??? ... Plz tell me.
Hey, I think your height and weight should be ok. If the uniform doesn't fit you, get it tailored. They offer accommodation, but you need to pay for it. You also need to pay for your own food and upkeep. Hope this helps.
Hi, if they assign you to a base that is really far away from where you live do you provide you with a hotel when you’re on shift? So you don’t have to travel for hours everyday?
Hi Tabitha! I will have my interview on 6th August. I have an answer for you! Can I come to the interview with the receipt of request for a new passport?
Hello Giovanni, Yes of course you can do that for sure. That's what I did. Things may have changed since, but don't let the lack of the physical passport stop you if you if it's already on the way! Once your passport arrives you can email them a photo of it.
@@cohencohen9028 Hi! Sure, it was all very simple and very fast. My interview lasted 4 minutes. The questions are: Tell me about yourself; Why do you want to be a flight attendant; Previous job; Do you have any tattoos?; Can you swim?; Tell me about a bad flight experience; Passport; Where do you see yourself in 5 years; These are the questions they asked me 😁
I’ve applied for Ryanair online and I did all the steps, English test, i sent the cv, photo and all Do you know how much it will take to invite us to the online interview?
@@gabrielhrvt9025 me too, I went to get my passport even though I don't even know if I will be called for an interview but I hope to be lucky good luck to you too
accommodation - 700 euros, travel - 60 euros, crew ID (don't remember), DBS checks - 50 euros. Hope that helps. Then you get a small allowance every week for food and you need to pay for your own personal items.
hello.I'm not an EU citizen, but I live in Poland. I'm studying. I have a full-time work permit and visa. Can I work? Also Is there an age limit? I'm 32 years old.
I actually applied few months ago, just completed the English online test, hopefully I can have the chance to interview;) It’s that an advantage If I have cabin crew experience? Also does Ryan hire any Asian people? Thank you;)
It's not necessarily an advantage to have experience, but it will be good for you because you will be familiar with the procedures, etc. Yes, Ryanair hires All nationalities as long as you have the unrestricted right to work in the UK or EU. All the best!

In general, no overnights. You return to your base every day. The only time you would ever have an overnight is if you were called to operate from another base or if you ran out of operating hours during a working day. Those occasions are very rare.
Hi Tabitha, thank you for all your videos, they are really helpfu!
On the recruitment day, do I have to wear a skirt or can I wear trousers?
You are very welcome. Skirt is best since the uniform will be a skirt.
Hi Tabitha, thank you for you video, it´s extremely useful. Can I ask about teeth requirements? My teeth are not ok (ive got pretty smile with no spaces but a lot of cavities which needs to be repared). Do you think it may be a problem? Do you have to visit a dentist before training?
Hey Chanelle, I don't think they will be checking your mouth for fillings/cavities. You are however required to be clean and fresh every day 😊
Thank you Tabitha for great advice and ideas. May I know that is it essential that I have to EU passport? I am non EU citizen who live in Denmark.
Hello! What if I do not have a EU passport, do they give working visa? or?
Have my interview in a few days, just wondering what I should wear?? It’s a online interview by the way x
I like your video I'm A new hire Cabin Crew with Breeze Airways U.S.A. Training August 7th
This is so clarifying! I have a little question. I've applied to some flight attendant vacancies in the UK and Ireland, I've done an on-line english test, and scheduled a 1 to 1 interview which will happen soon. But how do I know to which base (city/country) am I doing this interview for? Is it in general and then if I pass, i'll be assigned a random base to do the training, like you were? Thank you! I love your videos!!
Great to know this was clariying. You usually get assigned a base before the training course.
Ehy did they mantain the promised base if In the email was UK or they changed it during the training course ?
Hi! First of all thank you for the time you dedicate about this life opportunity... but what about male clothing on the recruitment day? I didn't receive any advice, what should i wear?
Hi Alessandro. You are very welcome. You need to wear smart clothes. Suit trousers/ Chinos and a longsleeve shirt and tie will be good enough. Clothes must be clean and without wrinkles. Smart shoes of course. Be clean shaven or with a full but neatly styled beard. All the best!
I do have a question, I’m a US citizen, holding a student visa, and residence permit, and Germany does that also count?
Hi tabitha can you answer my question it’s really important as I’m doing to the training course in Paris Ryanair is asking me all the references from all the jobs I did with stamps but some of them don’t even speak English or change countries ??
Hi Zoey, I think you may need to get your documents translated. Usually you only need 2 references so I don't know why they are asking for more than that. It will start to get costly to officially translate so try to confirm that they actually need more than 2 references.
What's the work life balance like? I've always wanted to be cabin crew but as a mom now I feel like I will never get to peruse my dream
It's actually pretty good! Especially because you get to rest more if they don't call you on a home standby day. If you have the support you could still become a cabin crew. A few of mu ex colleagues had kids.
Hi there, I’m a big fan. What about man with long hair, do we have to cut off or braids they allow?? My hair is curly as long. Do I have make to make a bun??
Hey Edy, that's awesome. Thank you! Yes you have to have it tied back or cut short. When I was training, girls had to cut their hair to a certain length (above mid-back) if they wanted it in a ponytail. As for braids they need to be very neat, tied back and only 1 colour. Dreadlocks are still not allowed.
Hey, Tabitha! I'm from Brazil, but it's been a month i got my Portuguese citizenship and EU passport. I applied for Ryanair last Wednesday and they sent me an email to do the online written test today. Right away i started looking for informations from ex-cabin crews and found your CZcams channel. I believe all the assessment steps are going to be online, due to quarantine, except for the training. Is there any other tip you could give me about doing this steps online? Thank you for your content. It definitely helped me.
Hello Dumont, I did all my training in person so I really don't know about doing those steps online. I can only imagine it being a little more challengin because you are alone. Just try to work on it like any other test and pay attention to details. I wish you the best 🙂
Oiii sou brasileira tbm, vc conseguiu ? Eu fiz a entrevista e estou esperando a resposta.
Ryanair must be experiencing even more challenges as a relatively new participant in the aviation industry! Am I missing something,are you just sharing your experience with them or are you still working for them in some capacity?
Yes most likely. I am just sharing my experience. Not working for them in any capacity.
hey I saw your video and rl enjoyed it, im going to have an online enterview with ryanair and I was wondering, lets supose I get accepted, about the passaport I have got a little issue cause I have applied for the passaport here in portugal but due to covid 19 It got delayed so I dont think Im going to have it in time for the assessment day :/ and I dont rl know what I should do...
I think you will definitely need the passport to start working. You might still be able to go on the training course but you will not be able to start working. Call them up or email to confirm and they will let you know. I wish you the very best!
Got a ryanair interview tommorow! So nervous 😓😬😫
I hope it went well!!
Hey Tabitha! Do you think I have any chances to pass the interview if I don't have any previous work experience? I only volunteered during university.
Hi Adriana, I am not too sure. The best advice I can give you is to highlight that experience as much as possible in the interview.
Tabitha! Please help me to understand, if i have approx 15 cm big tatoo on my ankle, but I can cover it with tatoo concealer, is it okay for ryanair? Now waiting for their answers and don't know what to think about that.
Yes that should be fine as long as you can cover it up 🙂
Hi! I’ve been watching your videos. They gave me two date options for the training, however I don’t know if I will have the results of my medical exams before the date of the training. If I can’t on those two dates, will I be excluded? Is the written reference from every previous employer mandatory? Thank you!
You should be able to join another training course. So no, you will not be excluded. Yes, written reference is mandatory.
@@TabithaLaker thank u 💛
Thanks for the tips, Tabitha. I was invited to a recruitment day next week here in Valencia and the email instructions are pretty brief. They mention the CV, passport and full-length picture thing, but they don't mention how long it's going to take like they did for you and they don't specify anything about what to wear or whether there will be any kind of test, so thank you for talking about that I guess😅. By the way, what would be the clothing requirements for men? I think you only talk about female attire in the video. Also, do they pay the flight to the training course if it's not in the country where you're living right now?
I think the assessment day takes the whole day. Day from 10am - 4/5pm. I just checked the photos I took that day and the time shows 10am to about 4pm but the day could have started earlier and ended later.
For men, I think a shirt, tie and smart trousers and shoes will do. Be well groomed, nice haircut, facial hair shaved or neatly styled. Short and clean fingernails, clean teeth, no smokers breath, freshly showered, with antiperspirant deoderant applied to the armpits after. Sorry I know it sounds obvious, but hygiene is quite important.
As for test, the only test I remember is the English test. I guess if they haven't given it to you online then perhaps it will be on the day.
@@TabithaLaker thank you very much!
@@Danteska90 hey, in valencia do they ask for height? And if you are 192cm is that a deal breaker?
@@nataliam2040 I'm 187 cm and was on the limit. 192 cm is probably too much, but you can still try, they'll let you know during the initial interview.
Hi about the references letter what they ask to your employers?
I am not too sure but I think it's just standard questions any employer would ask. So might be worth a quick Google search.
Hi !Thank you for sharing the experience.I want to you that ,Can we apply for flight attendant jobs on post study work visa in the UK?
Hey, you're very welcome. I think you will need to renew your visa if possible. You need to have the right to live and work in the UK without any restrictions.
today they asked a cabin crew classmate to explain a situation related to general knowledge of airplanes, mechanics and engineering she didn't understand the scenario so when she asked him to repeat he told her to try another time. It was online, she had to dress in cabin crew uniform hair and makeup...stand up for them etc. but no interview questions team building questions, or theory that is specific to cabin crew...something also about the cockpit and pilots...i don't know cuz they really caught her off guard not doing an interview as we were taught and explained and hear.
I cant even sign up for the crewlink sight because even though i have permanent residency in Spain my passport is American ughh cant even send my cv so frustrating. The majority of companies ask for 1'65 cm and ryan air 1'67.. Im 1'66. I dont know about that them assigning you a base city in any country without u being able to choose...They are a low cost company and pay not including flying hrs the same pay the average person makes at any job in Spain.🤷♀️🤷🏼♀️ they sound a little picky and high maintenance for what they have to offer.
Wow, that's tough. They have obviously changed the requirements since my 'time' there. I do not remember answering such questions. I don't think your height will be a problem because I worked with people shorter than 167cm - unless they have become stricter on that too. I think base assignment rules have changed because of Brexit. They are quite picky, but not as picky as other airlines. It's really up to you to decide if you want to do the job or not now that you have this information. Maybe you could apply for another/international airline if not having an EU passport is hindering you.
@@TabithaLaker Hi, I’m interested in why you left. Do you have a video covering the topic?
oh my sister i like u my dia i which god to give u more than tomorrow than today god bless u
Thankyou! & God bless!
@@TabithaLaker amen my sister
how are you doing there
Hey! I just did my interview, I'm wondering of when they tell you to do a training course you can chose from different dates or they assing you a specific day where you can not choose and have to request it to do a different date
They offer you a training course start date and you can choose if you want to accept it or not. You can also tell them you want to wait for a future training date and they will let you know when it is.
Do they guarantee a place in the following training course or if you decline you have the chance of not doing it at all
@@silviasanchez1214 Not really. You should ask them to confirm. I think your job offer is valid for 6 months. You may need to re-apply after that.
Silvia, I've just received an online English assessment. Can you inform me a bit about the assesment? Like how difficult was it, how many questions?
Hi thank you.😊You explained very well.
I am from mozambique and my Dream is to became a British airways cabin crew
And i'm still workin' on my English 🤗
Glad you think so 🤗 I wish you the best with this dream! Keep working at it!
@@TabithaLaker thank you 😊
I really want this job but i’m really worried i wont be based in the UK
I think they are giving UK applicants UK bases now. Not 100% sure, but this is what I heard.
The course is like 45 minutes from where I live do I need to pay for accommodation as I can drive back and forth
You can drive if you can the daily journey
Hey! What about the reach test in Ryanair? I'm 155 cm and Ryanair requires 157cm , would they reject me immediately? Thank you!
Hey 😊 it's 158.4 / 5'2". I just checked online for that info. I'm not too sure if they are flexible when it comes to height. Would probably best if you got in touch with them and asked about it.
What if you’re successful but not all references respond ( one company I worked for closed down ) are they strict with referencing and stuff ? Help pls xx
You might have to get a reference from another source then.
Can you tell me the English test for cabin crew which is to write a paragraph in words then what kind of test is that can you guide me about it
In the English test, you need to write in full sentences, answering the questions they present or explaining a scenario. That's it. Not too complicated but you must do it well enough to pass.
You definitely need to pass the swimming test, but it's actually not too hard. If you don't have that much confidence in swimming, please get so lessons or practice in beforehand. That could help.
Thanks for sharing your experience.
I am scheduled for an online interview this week, do you think my Nigeria passport will be a challenge?
You're very welcome. I really cannot say. I think you have to check the job description again and see if you meet the requirements. I have just seen it says "Applicants must have the unrestricted right to live and work in the UK if based in the UK upon successful completion of training". So it's not about your passport, but about your right to work in the EU and UK.
@@TabithaLaker they've withdrawn my application and interview. I just received an email from crewlink.
This is the second time within the space of 3month.
I guess it's a crime to be born in Nigeria. I feel sad and pained right now 😭😭
This is my dream job 😥
@@itunuayoimoleayo3353 oh I'm sorry about that. Maybe you could become a cabin crew for Emirates or Etihad? I think they both accept applicants internationally.
@@TabithaLaker Thank you so much
Hopefully 🙏
One question please, I’m a university student but I don’t need to go to the university so I’m always available, but what abt the ryanair recruiters they will accept a student or not?
Well I have a friend who was also a Masters student while working a flight attendant. She handled the workload very well, but of course they say they want you to be available and not have another job. Maybe studying if different. Please ask them for an accurate answer.
@@TabithaLaker thank you dear
When you say presentation what does that mean do you have to give a presentation x
Maybe get in touch with them again.
Hi I’ve applied for the Birmingham base vacancy and I am just wondering what should I wear to the assessment day if I am to be taken on for that ? And where do you do training ?
Hi you should wear smart clothes. Have manicured nails, red, pink or neutral lipstick & clean simple style hair. Just google "what to wear to cabin crew interview" and you will find many examples. Ryanair are more relaxed than other airlines, but you still need to be smart.
Also applied for the Birmingham base vacancy. Was wondering about training too 🤔🤔
Hi there just wondering if you have to live within a certain distance from the airport to work for ryanair
Yes, you need to live no more that 1 hour away from the airport.
Tabitha Laker for the initial first day would I need somewhere within an hour of the airport or could I rent somewhere during or before the training course begins?
Tomorrow i go for the recruitment day i dont know if i need to wait for the reply of my application or just attend the recruitment day
How did it go?
However, you didn't talk about the accommodations that they provide you !! 🤔🤔 Do they offer you accommodations for the training ??
Yes, they offer accommodation. You will get an email price and location once you are offered a place on the course.
thank you for sharing your experience, i applied for Ryanair 2 times last year and i wasn't successful. is it difficult to get the job? this job is my dream and ive always wanted to work with Ryanair ever since i was at a young age.
Thanks for watching. For me and many others it is not hard to get the job, you do the hard work once you get to the training course. Did they give you feedback on the assessment day? Sorry you haven't had success with it yet.
Why would you want to work with Ryanair? Its make me laugh. They are not so good, even to call it a dream working for them?🤣
Wow, living at Reykjavik. Interesting.
It's pretty interesting indeed!
Hello, thank you for sharing these informations with us, how much money you had to pay for the accommodation during your training course ? Great video
Hey, you're very welcome. I paid 700 euros for accommodation.
@@TabithaLaker 700 euros with a roommate or just for yourself in the room ? Sorry to ask I have to go to Hahn next month and I don’t have a lot of information about the accommodation
@@Sabrinah213 I paid 700 euros for a shared room (1 roommate). However, they might have changed things recently.
@@TabithaLaker alright thank you very much 🙏❤️
What about self harm scars?
Do they still charge 3k?
Did you apply on the ryainair website or Crewlink?
I think scars in general are ok. But it's best to check with them to be sure. Training is now free. I applied via a job site listing posted by Crewlink, but you can apply anywhere the job is listed and in most cases it will be followed up by Crewllink.
@@TabithaLaker also is the drug test a urin or hair test?😅
Hi tabitha, Is it possible that after a month they still haven't sent me the email with the outcome of the interview? Cuz I’m still waiting
I think it could be possible if they are having many applications.
Hi! Is there any chance at all that they would let off someone 5'1 feet?
I think 5'2" is the minimum height. Sorry x
Hey, I’ve got my video interview friday what questions do they ask you etc?
Hey, just seeing this. They ask general interview questions. One of them may be "Why Ryanair?". They are pretty standard.
do u know how long it will take to hear back from a interview? xx
For me it took about 1 month. Perhaps it will be different for you.
Hello Tabitha, I had an interview last week where I passed and they told me they would send me an email to continue the process. Do you know how long this can take? since I haven't received anything yet. Thank you so much!
I think it will definitely take longer than a week, so just be patient. I think it took them 3 weeks to send me an invitation to the training course after the assessment day. However, I don't know the timeline of things these days.
@@TabithaLaker Hello Tabitha! I finally received the email with the date to take the training course. I responded, what date suits me best. Do you recommend I wait now? since they have not contacted me again and it is for May 16.
Thank you so much!
Hi Tabitha, what questions did they ask in the interview?
Hey Aislinn, the questions are typical interview questions. ie. Why do you want to be a cabin crew etc.
Hi Tabitha, I dont need visa to travel to any country in Europe but my passport is no European, Do you know think they ll hire me?
I am not up to date on the latest rules regarding visa rules. The best thing to do would be to contact Crewlink or Ryanair directly for a specific and up to date answer.
I have recently applied for Ryan air and am now worried that I won’t be based at East Midlands air port as that’s 20 minutes away from me, what is the possibility that I will be based abroad? Xx
Hey, I think it depends on what the job listing said. If it said they you need to be prepared to work anywhere in Europe, then that will be the case. If you applied for a specific base then you will get that base. When I applied it said I need to be prepared to work wherever they sent me in Europe. But things have changed since, so that may not be the case for you.
Hi
I've sent my application for a Ryanair at the end of March and I've passed my english test a couple days later. I've sent my cv, picture etc. (All requested documents) but I haven't got any answer. It's beed over 2 months now. Should I be worried?
Hey Eryk, I would be more concerned with trying to get in touch with them. 2 months is a long time to wait for an answer.
Hi Eryk, can you tell me about the online english assesment. Was is difficult, how many questions were there?
Hey girl so the craziest thing happened to me on my interview today and I just want to get a second opinion on this because I haven’t read or heard of a single experience similar to that.
So it was a zoom interview that, I felt like, went very well. The interviewer and I got along, we even joked around a little bit which is why towards the end of the interview, when I asked if he has any idea when the next training course starts and he answered “tomorrow” while smiling, I geniunely thought he was joking!
I even joked too then and was like ‘ah yeah sure let me get up and head to Frankfurt asap’ and he laughed with me but then he was like ‘oh you’re laughing but it’s true, course starts tomorrow’.
So I was obviously gooped and asked him if there was a chance to read this somewhere and he was like nope. And I told him there’s no way I’ll make it to arrange everything and be in Frankfurt in time tomorrow, it’s extremely unrealistic. And he was like okay I’ll see with the company, what can be done, maybe you can join on the third day or something.
And then 2hrs later I got an email thanking me for the interview and that they will contact me ‘in the upcoming days’ regarding the next steps.
Also, in the video that they sent me to watch, the woman says ‘bases are assigned 2 weeks prior to begin of training day’ - how the hell wasn’t he able to tell me my base then, lol??
How are they expecting for someone to make it to Frankfurt the next day when they just had the interview?? That must have been a joke or something, they also didnt give me a final decision today, so what the hell is going on 😂
I love the "so what the hell is going on" part hahaha
WOW What an experience! These people need to get it together. 😂 Did you eventually get a final decision? It's been 2 days since your comment.
Hi girl, the same thing happened to me today!
Can you update on the situation? I'm curious and I don't know what to do honestly!
@@jakubpieprzyk4062 yes! So sorry for the late reply. I ended up getting an E-Mail two days after, confirming my interview was successful and that they are inviting me to join training for Lauda in Hahn on May 20th. Back then, it was thankfully some time to think about it and plan ahead, however, I had to turn the date down due to personal reasons and asked them to please consider me for the next training, to which they responded that they will (fingers crossed!). Depending on who they want to recruit you for, the 20th really is two days away, so I hope they don’t actually want to put you through that!
@@sarahkim4062 yeah, I was also offered the 20th May and I am also not able to attend this training. So hopefully we will meet on the next possible training hahah
I have been thinking of applying for a college course in aviation, cabin crew and travel. The only thing im hesitant about is my height as i am 5’1 and im kind of scared i wont grow 😂 hopefully i reach past 5’3 as i havent reached 21 yet(age u stop growing ) but this video was extremely helpful and interesting, thank you! ☺️
I'm on your same boat :( they crushing my dreams with their height requirement
I grew further until i was 25 ☺️😆
Have a interview with them coming up ?
All the best for it!
hi i send my cv and it has been 5 days with no answear… please can you tell me how long it can take? :(
Hi, you have probably gotten a response by now but it definitely takes longer than 5 days. It was at least a month for me.
Okay, so I have a question. Do they check how tall you are, because it says you have to be between 5”2 and 6”2 I’m 6”4. It’s a strange because some airlines like Jet2, Tui, Virgin etc don’t have a maximum height restriction but some do 🤷♂️. Great video by the way 😄.
I don't recall them checking but perhaps that was because they could literally see I was between those heights. It might be a little difficult working in the aircraft if you are 6'4" but still you could contact them and double check. Thanks for tuning in and I wish you the very best 😊
Tabitha Laker - Thanks, I think I will apply for Jet2 when all this is over. The only thing that puts me off Ryanair is not knowing where you will be based 😄
@@elliottcurrie7025 That is definitely off-putting, but you can apply, attend the assessment day and then find out the base once they offer you a place on the training course. Doesn't mean you need to accept it.
Tabitha Laker - ahh ok, could still be an option then. Thanks for your help 🙂
Hey! If I haven't worked with a contract yet, should I still mention my experience? Bcs if they ask for a recommendation letter, I don't think I'll be able to bring it 😅
your experience is valid whether it was contracted of not
Do they only accept European passport? I do have a Green passport but with stay or residence validation for fore years. I hope someone respond to me.
I don't really know about green passport. Please check the job description. It should be extremely clear - I just found this: "Applicants must have the unrestricted right to live and work in the UK and travel freely throughout the network, this includes Pre-Settled status holders." If this is you, then you're good to go!
This was for a UK job. Not sure about the mainland Europe jobs but you can check.
How long where you at a location for? How long a period xx
about 5 months
I want to be a ryanair cabin crew does ryanair accommodate you on where ur based ps love ur vids
No unfortunately they do not provide accomodation once you are a cabin crew. They do provide accomodation options during the training course (that you need pay for). But after that, you are on your own.
Oh thx so much could you commite into work if you live in a different country then where ur based
Hi can you work for them if you are from the u.s with a u.s passport??
I think it's more about your status and if you have the unrestricted right to work in the EU/UK. Please check out the job description/requirements on their website.
Hi, I’ve applied for cabin crew and I’ve passed my English assessment and I have interview on Tuesday 6th April. I want to know if they paid for your flight to Germany or you have to pay it yourself xx ?

Hey Tabitha are you still flying? How has covid affected you in terms of flights and salary/ job security? I'm a flight attendant in south Africa and I'm curious how other FAs around the world are being affected
Edit, I just read your description hahahaha nice video!
Ah great you read the description. Almost all Ryanair aircrafts are grounded apart from a limited few to England, Ireland, Germany & The Netherlands. Existing staff have taken a 50% paycut and many have been layed off completely. Ghost flights have been operating in order to save money keep planes serviceable. That's pretty much a summary of goings on. Do you plan on Changing careers or continuing to fly after the crisis?
Why didn’t you consider applying to Icelandair? 😊 Where were you based when flying for FR? Is it true that Ryanair treat their employees badly? 🧐
With Icelandair you need to be able to speak Icelandic fluently. Well with Ryanair, staff treatment is different according to who you are. Because of their need to constantly recruit, it gives many people the opportunity to become flight attendants very 'easily'. Some people stay for a long time and other move on to better airlines once they have the training and experience under their belt.
Thanks for the reply 😆 That’s kinda stupid that Icelandair wasn’t an opportunity for you 🙁 But you got by 🤪 Are you flying for another airline at present? ✈️ Did you fly 4 sectors often?
@@ruperthess7238 yes, but it's understandable. I had only been in Iceland for 10 months when I started apply for cabin cre jobs. I definitely wasn't fluent in Icelandic. I am no longer flying. Yes I used to fly 4 sectors often. It's pretty standard for most Ryanair bases.

Tabitha laker also thanks for sharing this useful video !💞 x
Hello Thabita, thank you for all of this information.... i really want to become a cabin crew, but the problem is .....(I've got two tattoos on my arms! Is this a big problem?
you can wear a long sleeve shirt to cover them up 🙂
@@TabithaLaker thank you so much for your answer.... really appreciate.... i hope you have a great day! Take care of yourself....🙏😊
@@catalincatalin6411 You're very welcome!! Thank you. You have a wonderful day too!
Hiiii.....i have applied for Ryanair ... They have selected my cv and today I gave english test.... Now I'm getting nervous for my height have 158cm And I'm skinny 🥺🥺🥺 this will be my first ever interview for cabin crew....... Did they give accommodation on training period?? .... Or they pay for and which things??? ... Plz tell me.
Hey, I think your height and weight should be ok. If the uniform doesn't fit you, get it tailored. They offer accommodation, but you need to pay for it. You also need to pay for your own food and upkeep. Hope this helps.
Hi, if they assign you to a base that is really far away from where you live do you provide you with a hotel when you’re on shift? So you don’t have to travel for hours everyday?
You need to rent (or buy) a place within 1 hours distance from your base. So basically you have to organise your accommodation and move.
@@TabithaLaker thank you! Probably not the best for me then; i wouldn’t wanna move away from family and friends
Hi Tabitha! I will have my interview on 6th August. I have an answer for you! Can I come to the interview with the receipt of request for a new passport?
Hello Giovanni, Yes of course you can do that for sure. That's what I did. Things may have changed since, but don't let the lack of the physical passport stop you if you if it's already on the way! Once your passport arrives you can email them a photo of it.
Thank you so much for your answer! You reassured me a lot!
@@giovanniintanno5212 You're welcome! All the best 🙂
@@giovanniintanno5212 Hi, could you tell me what was asked at your interview ? And how was it
@@cohencohen9028 Hi! Sure, it was all very simple and very fast. My interview lasted 4 minutes. The questions are:
Tell me about yourself;
Why do you want to be a flight attendant; Previous job;
Do you have any tattoos?;
Can you swim?;
Tell me about a bad flight experience;
Passport;
Where do you see yourself in 5 years;
These are the questions they asked me 😁
I’ve applied for Ryanair online and I did all the steps, English test, i sent the cv, photo and all
Do you know how much it will take to invite us to the online interview?
i am also waiting for them to respond
@@sabina9013 Good luck!
you too ❤️
Omg I applied as well, I have to send them the documents. I'm so nervous for the interview
@@gabrielhrvt9025 me too, I went to get my passport even though I don't even know if I will be called for an interview but I hope to be lucky good luck to you too
You didn’t talk about the salary
I talk about salary in this video: czcams.com/video/x0oOxQ9zbkc/video.html
How much do you spend on the entire training course (accommodation, travel, crew ID, DBS checks etc) everything over all
accommodation - 700 euros, travel - 60 euros, crew ID (don't remember), DBS checks - 50 euros. Hope that helps. Then you get a small allowance every week for food and you need to pay for your own personal items.
hello.I'm not an EU citizen, but I live in Poland. I'm studying. I have a full-time work permit and visa. Can I work? Also Is there an age limit? I'm 32 years old.
I think you should be able to, as long as your permit allows you to work anywhere in Europe.
I actually applied few months ago, just completed the English online test, hopefully I can have the chance to interview;)
It’s that an advantage If I have cabin crew experience?
Also does Ryan hire any Asian people?
Thank you;)
It's not necessarily an advantage to have experience, but it will be good for you because you will be familiar with the procedures, etc. Yes, Ryanair hires All nationalities as long as you have the unrestricted right to work in the UK or EU. All the best!
