It seems the recent spate of bad airplane passenger etiquette hasn’t deterred flight attendant hopefuls from attempting to enter their ranks.
Delta Airline’s website epically crashed after becoming overloaded with a deluge of applications for its 2025 flight attendant positions.
The glitch occurred Wednesday after the carrier, which is one in every of the “Big Three” US Airlines alongside American and United, opened its flight attendant applications for the primary time in over a 12 months.
“Resulting from extremely high demand for Delta flight attendant positions, some applicants reported difficulties [with] the applying page on September 4,” a Delta representative told Business Insider.
Following the crash, the airline issued an advisory on its recruitment page stating that the “application experience could also be slow during this era” on account of the “large influx of candidate interest for the Flight Attendant position.”
Meanwhile, Reddit was inundated with complaints from prospective crew members.
“The web site crashed wasn’t quick enough to upload my application,” rued one, while one other applicant wrote, “Me too. So frustrating. I got to the tip and crashed again. Now it’s not working.”
A 3rd uploaded a screenshot of the Delta website with a message denoting that it was “temporarily unavailable.”
A fourth said they were finally capable of apply for the gig “after almost two hours of refreshing the screen in incognito mode.”
Unfortunately, the race to hitch the “Delta force” has been cutthroat even and not using a computer malfunction.
After rebounding from the pandemic, the airline received 65,000 applications for a record 5,000 jobs in 2023 while there’ll allegedly be fewer positions this 12 months.
Meanwhile, the positioning states that Delta applicants “will need to have a highschool diploma, GED or highschool equivalency, the power to work within the U.S., speak, read and write English fluently and be a minimum of 21 years of age on the time of application submission.”
Delta can also be looking for bilingual applicants who’re fluent in English in addition to some other language like Czech, Danish, Dutch, French, Greek, German, Italian, Korean or Swedish.
To use, aspiring air hosts/hostesses must undergo a five-stage process that involves submitting an application, trying out virtually, in addition to each a video and in-person interview.
Should they be accepted, applicants will receive a conditional job offer and must undergo seven weeks of coaching.
