Southwest Airlines Phoenix Reservations Center was my first job after my debilitating car accident, that left me wheelchair-bound. I didn’t know it at the time, but they were preparing me for my hard-core Sales Job at Direct Alliance/INSIGHT. At Direct Alliance, I became one of the top salespersons and was awarded multiple all-expenses-paid trips, as a result. Without Southwest, I don’t think I would’ve performed near as well! They are hiring on a regular basis, throughout the country. My good friend Aaron had always wanted to be a Southwest Airlines Flight Attendant, so I suggested he accept a referral, work at the Reservations Center for one year and then apply for a flight attendant position. Aaron did that and he’s been a Southwest Flight Attendant, for several years now! He loves it and he might never have lived this dream without first working at the Reservations Center!
Great company with amazing perks! Takes pride in it’s work and gives it’s all to provide the best opportunities and benefits for it’s employees. Values it’s customers by implementing business plans and initiatives that put them first. Proud to say I work here!
I absolutely LOVE my company! My airline provides excellent benefits as well as excellent work perks! Our retirement opportunities are amazing as well as our profit sharing! I would encourage any one who is interested in working for an airline to give my company a try!
As a flight attendant, wife and mother of two I am able to have a successful work-life balance. I couldn't imagine doing anything else! This career and industry is great for anyone!
