OK, My two cents worth! As anybody who comes to this part of the forum often enough knows the same questions are asked time and time again.
The best thing to do is to look at the job description and try to envisage what sort of person they are looking for and try to match the criteria (easier said than done) along with doing your own thinking research.
Some points to consider;
1 The culture of both the company and country in which the airline is based.
2. Who are the airlines customers and what is important to them (e.g. if many are English speakers then the required standard of spoken English will be high - e.g: British Airways, Emirates, Quatarair)
3 How happy will you be living and working in a country thousands of miles away from your family/boyfriend/husband where it may be difficult to have any social life.
4. The key factor to getting the job is;
understanding people and being able to communicate effectively in a variety of situations quickly while being able to retain a lot of information.
No reason why somebody should not reapply at some later date but if you have been rejected try to have a good luck at yourself, you may have to admit or accept things you don't like.
Remember you learn by making mistakes, that builds your experience.
