Remember that airlines are looking for someone who is professional, articulate, and well-presented.
Include concise information
Some airlines require their cabin crew members to be a certain height, if that is the case you can include this information in your resume. Go further by adding relevant information such as any extra languages. Place all the information in an easy-to-find section.
Include a summary
A summary is a concise introduction at the top of your CV, usually around 80 to 120 words in length. This is your chance to tell the recruiter about yourself as a professional and what you can offer as cabin crew member.
Avoid being vague and ensure that your summary is specific to the aviation industry.
