"Flight Attendants & In-Flight Services

You will never want to stand still while working with our In-Flight team. Our men and women are synonymous with gracious attitudes, winning smiles, warm customer service and professionalism. So, if you're flying to Shanghai or Salt Lake City, you've come to realize that nothing wins our passengers' hearts better than the greeting they get from a Delta crew member when you're flying them home.
You are, truly, the face of Delta and must be passionate about maximizing each customer's experience while promoting the Delta brand. You will be remembered not just for your sparkling service but for your aptitude, expertise and hospitality. You're positioned to join the four corners of the world. See this world differently while being the envy of the industry. We challenge you to be part of the team.
While specific positions will have unique requirements (see individual job descriptions), you must possess at least a H.S. diploma/GED equivalent, be at least 18 years of age, and possess current authorization to work in the U.S. to work at Delta."
Delta - Flight Attendants & In-Flight Services
Thanks, but see below post. Requirement and preferred are 2 differenet animals, but sometimes preferred can be synonymous with required, depending on the hiring cycles. As I posted a couple of hundred pages ago: DAL recently had some FA job interviews in DEN and SLC. They had over 8,000 applicants. I don't know about DEN, but in SLC they hired 10 of the 4,000. How many of those do you think didn't have 4 year degree? So is it preferred or is it required? Symantics me thinks!
