I applied online and soon after got an email that had questions to send back. Some of the questions were, why did you want to work for Alaska Airlines, and are you COMPLETELY open to relocating to one of five domiciles. Next I had a phone interview and on that same call was invited to attend their hiring event in Seattle. You have to be there at 8a sharp. I showed up at 745a were about 50 people were already there. We watched a few movies and current flight attendants talk about how much they love their job. At this point, they split us up into three groups of about 25 and told us to meet in a specific room. As we all walked out, we had to do the reach test of 80 inches and to our rooms we went. We all got settled in and then we were quickly put into alphabetical order by last name. The first question they asked was "tell me about a time you were loyal to something and why." We went around the semi-circle answering that one question then were put into smaller groups of three and given a scenario card that we had to stand, solve and talk about to the group. The last question was "tell us something that we wouldn't know about you from your resume." Again, around the room we went. At this point the interviewers said they were done and to meet back in the main room at a specific time. At said time, all 75 of us were back in the room waiting for the results. Only about 15 people made it through to the next step of HR interviews. All in all, this part of the interviews took just over 4 hours. The good news was you found out right then and there if you were going to training or not.
