Working with Qantas can be prestigious and satisfying in several respects. Qantas has many openings for MBAs in its administration segments of Finance, Marketing, Human Resources and Information Technology. Interested candidates should also scour the openings available in Qantas' Engineering and Safety and Environment Management divisions. Those who have a passion for flying planes will find their passions gratified when they secure piloting jobs with Qantas Airlines. Candidates who have very good people and communication skills should endeavor to compete for the cabin crew positions offered by Qantas Airlines. Qantas looks for the following capabilities in the flight attendants it employs:
- They should have a natural flair for handling customers of all natures - unescorted children, impatient and nitpicking passengers, apprehensive first-time fliers, physically unfit and differently abled fliers.
- They should possess an amiable countenance and gain pleasure and impetus from serving people.
- They should be able to make travelers, who do not speak English fluently, feel easy - in this case, they should focus with special attention on these passengers so that the latter follow all significant announcements made by the Captain and instructions indicated by the flight attendants regarding oxygen masks, fire escapes, other escape routes in the plane if the Airline is caught in mid-air peril, etc.
- They should be trained to handle, as far as possible with equanimity, any exigency on board in the form of sudden landing, an imminent crash, panic-stricken passengers, etc. They are, of course, not liable if the situation goes completely out-of-hand.
- They should maintain the cleanliness and hygiene of the aircraft by inspecting toilet sanitation and throwing away sick bags.
- Last, but not the least, they should distribute meals with alacrity, smartness and charm.
Airhostesses and flight stewards should be physically fit and generally tall.
On the whole, Qantas Airlines provides a splendid work environment for all its employees.
