I'll be graduating from college this 27th and I love to hear suggestions of good paying jobs. I'm considering trying out to become part of an airline's cabin crew, I heard it pays well and the perks and benefits are good too!

as i look at you, i think you will really suit best in an airline company. you could be at the desk or office, as in some ticketing office or cabin crew. i heard they pay good salary and lots of benefits.

that is right, you will still have more time with them and besides, we can never know what, it's kinda hazardous being on flight. i am not telling this to forget about your dream of being a sterwardess, you can still go on if that is what you really dreamt of.

Thank you for the kind compliment, Neil! It's really good that you mentioned desk and office jobs too, I've put my mind on going into being a stewardess that I forgot about those possible jobs. I don't really want to be away from family that's why I'm sort of hesitant into becoming part of the cabin crew. Yeah. Maybe desk jobs in airlines are good too! At least that way I don't need to get out of the country!

my cousin was a cabin crew, she's now based in usa live with his family, I think the training will took 5 to 6 months but im not sure I only based on my cousin because i notice her took months before finishing it, but definitely there is a training that's the thing i can assure you. Anyway can I ask what course you take up?

Wow! That's really great for your cousin. I read about it a bit and saw that the training takes up 3 months. The pay is really good too, $1,500 for the first month, but I don't know if I'll be able to leave my family for work. It's a bit too soon for me since I'm a fresh grad! I'm looking for other options now... Anyway I took up Interdisciplinary Studies. :)

wow before anything else let me congratulate you, are you an HRM? if yes then a cabin crew would be a nice idea although i heard that you need to undergo a lot of training before being a cabin crew but i think its worth it, and if you prefer stress then you may also want to consider being a call center agent, i heard they also have lots of benefits and bonuses, anyway whatever work you come up with i wish you goodluck on your chosen career, and again congratulations :D

Thank you so much, m1kong! No, I didn't take HRM, but I've been told having that as a course is not a prerequisite, but that's a plus for those who took that up! Really? How long does the training usually take? You seem to be familiar with the job! Thank you for the advice! And yeah, I'm also thinking of giving call centers a shot. They say the pay is really good.

Hello Fred! I took up interdisciplinary studies where I got a background of a little bit of everything, making it flexible for me to find a job. Yeah, I'm considering trying call centers too! Do you know what call centers are good? :)
