Well hello dear readers!
Just a quick and very personal update. I figured it might be fun to tell you something about my work. From now on -if you think it's interesting, please let me know- I will keep you posted on my search for my dream job: becoming a cabin attendant. Let me tell you upfront I already work A LOT!
At this moment I have two jobs: as a ground stewardess and one at my previous school to help them out with the traineeships for the students. I graduated in aviation services a couple of months ago and am now ready to work fulltime. Unfortunately, due to the economic crisis, it's quite difficult to find a fulltime job at this moment. For a long period of time, it was impossible to apply for a job as cabin attendant, simple because there were no vacancies for cabin attendants in the Netherlands. That's why, after graduating, I continued working as a ground stewardess. I work for a well known dutch airline and I will ask you in advance NOT to name the company I work for. If you do, I need to remove your comment unfortunately. But I can't work fulltime on the ground either, so I was forced to take another job and combine the two.
Eventhough I do like both of my jobs, it's kind of hard too. I have to pay a lot of tax on one job, not an ideal situation. Ever since I was a little girl I was my ultimate goal to become a cabin attendant. I really like the hospitality industry and I'm obsessed with airplanes. Good combination, isn't it?
And recently the dutch airlines companies started hiring again! I immediately applied and I had my interview yesterday. It was really tough! I had to make an English test (yes, I still need to practise a lot of english, I know) and an english oral exam which was quite difficult as well. After that, I had a really difficult dutch chat about my motivation. And I passed the first round of the interview! The second round started later that afternoon and that was another 45min chat in Dutch. And in two weeks from now on, I know if I will become a cabin attendant or not. I keep you posted!
AND PLEASE, ONCE AGAIN, DO NOT NAME THE AIRLINE COMPANY I'M WORKING/APPLYING FOR.
