Want to work as Cabin Crew for Volotea? Here’s our guide to their recruitment process.

Before you start

When working for Volotea you may need to relocate to one of their European bases This means that you’ll need a valid work permit for the chosen country. You should also consider if this is a country you think you’d be happy living in.

There are a few things you’ll need to do before you apply. First is making sure your CV is up to date. You’ll also need a high quality front face  photograph – professional ones if possible. These do come at a cost, but think of it as an investment into your cabin crew career – a high quality photo can really make your application stand out!

The Volotea Cabin Crew Online Application Process

Step 1 – Application Form

To apply, you can either check our jobs board, or go online to the Volotea Career Pages.

The first part of the recruitment process requires you to complete a detailed online application form including uploads of your:

• CV (in English)
• Recent head shot
• Copy of your European Cabin Crew Attestation
• One minute introduction video (in English)

Your CV will need to cover these categories:

• Personal information – make sure you meet the requirements, and stick to relevant details.
• Work experience – they’ll be scanning for experience in customer service and hospitality so if you do have work or life experience in these areas, make this stand out. Really show what makes you good in these roles!
• Education – again, stick to the point, and don’t go into unnecessary detail. Steer clear of acronyms and jargon!
• Certifications – if you have any other qualifications or certifications that are relevant to the role, list them here! These could include a first aid qualification, or a certificate from a cabin crew training course.

Need help with your CV? We’ll help you get it in great shape. Our Cabin Crew CV Review will help you find out where your last CV went wrong, helping you stop making the same mistakes over and over. You might not realise how much your current CV is costing you your chance at a Cabin Crew career!

Step 2

Applicants successfully completing this stage will be required to attend a recruitment day (usually face-to-face in the location you have indicated you wish to work) and complete the following:

• English proficiency test
• Personality test
• Team activity
• Personal interview

Remember to dress for success –  smart business attire is best for both men and women.

Also have digital copies of your documentation available on a phone, tablet or laptop to share with the recruitment team on the day. Remember to bring the physical copy along too though!

What happens next?

It can be really nerve-wracking waiting to hear if you’ve been selected or not, but the airline will let you know, either way.

If you don’t get selected, try not to lose heart. Use the experience as a learning curve to reflect on what you could do better, and remember you can apply again in six months.

Final steps

There are some background and medical checks that the airline will need to make before your offer of employment can be finalised.

If you’ve been selected, you’ll be asked to complete a self-declaration medical form, and may have to visit your doctor if additional information is required. You’ll also need to visit your dentist to complete the airline’s dental form.

Next it will be time for Volotea to put you through their own medical assessment, and the necessary background and criminal records checks will be completed. You’ll have to provide a police report confirming that you have no previous convictions due to updated visa policies.

Finally, it will be time for you to fly to Europe to complete Cabin Crew Training. Before you know it, you’ll be waking up to your first day in the sky as cabin crew!
