In a in direct way you have got experience  by all  the places you seen and the people you have met. You could tell  tell them this  and explain  that while you  have  not had a degree. but  you think getting amongst the people and the scenery  is just as important. as you would be dealing with people all the time in this line of work. I would be honest as you will prob be found out  in the end.because wouldn't you have had to list your qualifications in your resume and have references of past employees.If you dont  get the job  and you still want to go into to this line of work do some some courses learn some languages etc Then try again .All the best and good luck.

Answer 4

i would make things up

but i'd emphasise your working life

the experiences you've gotten travel that would make you a good flight attendant

ie: you've had to deal with frustrating people and situations, you can cope with the unexpected etc.

Answer 5

All airline employees are subject to a 10-year background check prior to employment, so your made up employment will not be verifiable, and will therefore disqualify you for employment.  Tell the truth, and highlight any public contact work experience you have had.

Answer 6

dont. u will be caught in a minute., truth is always the best.

Answer 7

I suppose the trouble is that if you fabricate your CV, they might check and then you will be rejected for dishonesty. If you're honest, they might reject you for not having worked for so long. It might be worth risking an invented CV. Good luck.
