You'll have two to three phone interviews where they ask pretty much the same things. Basic stuff, like why you're looking for a new job and why you think you'd do well. After that, they'll invite you for an in-person interview. This is your chance to see how things actually run day-to-day... which, looking back, was probably a sign of what was to come.

Behavioral Presentation Other

The interview process started with a one-on-one with the HR manager, focusing on getting to know me and my past experiences. This was followed by a phone call later that week inviting me to a second round. The second round involved a presentation to the managers about airline catering information. I had to prepare this presentation within an hour and then immediately participated in an interview after it concluded. On the same day, I received a call for a third-round interview, which was a 5-day experiential learning program. This was a great opportunity to learn about the operations and see if I'd like the work environment. After the program, I had to write and submit a reflection report via email.

Recruiters were very professional. I went through a drug test and background check, which took some time but wasn't too difficult.
