The international recruitment days will take place in 19 different cities across Australia, Europe, the Middle East and Africa including the United Kingdom, France, Slovakia, Tunisia and South Africa. 

Applicants interested in attending the recruitment days and joining the airline’s award-winning team of cabin crew should register in advance by visiting www.etihad.com/cabincrewrecruitment.

Alongside providing candidates with comprehensive information about living in Abu Dhabi and the dynamics of working with guests at 30,000 feet, the airline will also conduct an in-depth assessment process.

“On the back of our recently launched ‘Choose Well’ brand campaign, these open days are more than just a recruitment drive.

We hope to attract talented and enthusiastic men and women globally, to inspire and help them kick-start a tremendous career opportunity and life experience in the UAE with us,” adds Ms Celestino.
