The new standard operating procedure (SOP) for employing flight attendants should be expedited to prevent unnecessary incidents during interviews. Current and former flight attendants gave their two cents’ worth on the recent controversy surrounding Malindo Air, which reportedly requested potential flight attendants to expose their chests, lift their skirts, fold up their pants or remove their pantyhose during a job interview. I think one can still can be a flight attendant without exposing themselves. Another flight attendant, who wished to remain anonymous, said sometimes it was necessary for some airlines to ask candidates to show certains parts of their bodies. “However, having a standardised SOP is a good move, provided there is a limit to what the interviewers can ask them to do,” said the 26-year-old Air-Asia X flight attendant.
