I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at United Airlines in Jun 2015
Interview
Presentation about company, then 1:1 and meeting with management (second round). Be at your best behavior and smile, be the person they would want to work on the plane with. Information posted here before is very accurate. Why do you want to be a FA? and what makes you qualified for the position? type of questions. They ask a couple of behavioral questions (tell me about a time when...) which you are expected to answer using the S.T.A.R. method. Also you will read an announcement off a card, take a seconds to read it fast and then recite it out loud with your best voice. Then comes the role play with your interviewer, the hypothetical scenarios have been posted already. Think of the attributes that makes you a good fit and select 3. Keep composure at all times and please don't pull out your phone while in the waiting room. Hope this helps, good luck!
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Read announcement off the card.
Why do you want to be a FA?
A time when you had a conflict with a customer/coworker?
A time you went above and beyond for a customer?
What is a misconception people may have about you?
Coworker doesn't want to do his/her share of the work (role play)
3 qualities of you that make you the best fit for the position.
the face to face live video interview with a HR personnel. I collected all possible questions from reddit to glassdoor and formulate my answers and thought they're going to ask the same questions but they didn't. The HR kind of tell that I have a ready made answers so she stirred the interview differently so my answer will be organic. Thankfully I passed this 30 minute interview. The interviewer did not look interested because she is multi-tasking but best believe she is listening to your answers.

Question 1
Can you tell me about a co-worker you had to work with but didn't get along with?
Its a multi-step interview process. First a resume submission and a questionnaire, then a pre-recorded interview with a few questions. I was asked this during the pre-recorded interview. Waiting for my live virtual interview!
I’m heading to the F2F interview in TX. Every step so far has not been difficult for me. I also have no prior knowledge in being a FA. The hardest part so far is probably just the nerves and anxiety. Just prep well, do some research, have some basic questions and answer prepared so that even if they ask a different question you can possibly use one of the scenarios of another question and tailor it to the new one.

Question 1
Tell me about a time you made a commitment to someone that turned out to be harder than you thought?
