Recruitment
The position of Flight Attendant is one of prestige and immense responsibility. Recruitment is
conducted according to operational demands and there can be periods of up to 12 months
where no new intake is required. However, applications are always welcomed.
After you submit your initial application online, the Kiwi Air HR Services Team review the details
you have provided. Candidates whose details closely match the requirements of the position are
then contacted via email advising that their application has progressed to the next stage of the
recruitment process. Potential candidates are then asked to attend a Walk-In Day. This could
occur several weeks or months after the original application has been submitted depending on
current needs.
The Walk-In Day consists of a brief presentation about the role and a short interview.
Candidates who are successful on the Walk-In Day are notified within 10 days and invited to
attend an Assessment Centre. Please note that candidates are required to pass a swimming
test before attending the Assessment Centre. At the Assessment Centre, candidates attend an
interview as well as participating in a number of assessments. Verbal references are then
requested, and candidates attend a medical check.
At times, there may not be a need to recruit for Flight Attendant positions. However, the
company continuously maintains a ‘recruitment pool’ of those who have completed the
Assessment Centre stage. These candidates are contacted when a need for Flight Attendants is
established, and attend a full interview before a decision is made on whether to extend an offer
of employment.
Due to the volume of applications received, Kiwi Air is not able to offer verbal feedback to
candidates at any stage of the recruitment process. Unsuccessful candidates may reapply at
any time after 12 months from the date at which their applications are declined.
Training
Upon being offered a role as a trainee Flight Attendant, a 5-week training course is undertaken
at our Inflight Services Training Centre in Auckland. This covers emergency procedures,
customer care and service delivery, and equipment knowledge. To successfully complete the
course, high standards must be attained and maintained in all subjects.
