Latam opens selection for commissioner and does not require English

Latam has just started its first talent bank registration in Brazil for a 100% online selection process for cabin crew (flights). Unprecedented in the Brazilian airline industry, the new process is more agile and should allow people from different regions to have access to vacancies.

The selection process was conceived after conducting internal surveys that sought to identify opportunities to promote diversity and inclusion in the company.

“We are only at the beginning of a long journey towards diversity and inclusion. When we allow people from all regions of a continental country like Brazil to apply for a vacancy to become cabin crew at Latam, we are breaking even social barriers that prevented many from coming to São Paulo to participate in this process and start fulfilling their professional dream”, explains Jefferson Cestari, HR director at LatamBrasil.

WHAT CHANGES?

Until Thursday (28), people from all over Brazil will be able to register on the Vagas.com website for the cabin crew position and compete for future vacancies in the company.

The selection processes will be carried out online. This means that all stages of the selection – including technical and manager interviews, technical and behavioral tests, group dynamics and document delivery – will be done remotely, regardless of the person’s location.

Even the admission exam can be carried out in the state capital closest to the candidate, who will only need to present himself in São Paulo on his first day of integration, already hired.

Another change by Latam Brasil concerns the language requirement (English or Spanish), which is also no longer mandatory and becomes desirable for the cabin crew position. The company will continue to apply the language test for mapping, but the criteria for choosing candidates will be entirely based on technical skills to perform the function and behavioral skills. This new model will be tested and, after hiring the first classes, it can be revised for possible adaptations.

The minimum requirements are: training in the flight attendant course with ANAC (National Civil Aviation Agency) approval, with CCT (Certificate of Theoretical Knowledge), which is the ANAC code, and valid CMA (Aeronautical Medical Certificate).

Currently, Latam Brasil has a staff of more than 3,000 cabin crew and the talent bank will be used by the company for the next hires based on operational needs and the evolution of the recovery of the Brazilian airline sector in the coming months.

Registration for vacancies can be accessed until the 28th at this link.
