Jamshedpur, May 10: Several students of Frankfinn Institute of Air Hostess Training were recently picked up by top airline companies for various posts ranging from air hostesses, to flight stewards and even ground staff at leading airports both within and outside India.
What makes their achievement special is that they are the first batch from the less-than-one-year-old institute to have made it big.
“The results have been very good, in fact much better than what we expected. We knew our students would do well. That they have been placed even before completion of their year-long course has, however, come as a big surprise,” said Sonia Patel, head of Frankfinn, Jamshedpur.
So far, about 12 students at the institute have either been placed or shortlisted by seven airlines from India and Middle East countries.
While 19-year-old Bhaskar Kumar was placed with Jet Airways, Air Deccan picked up Isha Singh, a former student of Karim City Coll ege and JW Marriott, Hyderabad, selected K. Sandhya. None of the students could be contacted as they are attending training schedules.
The rest of the students have also done the city proud by being selected for the final and ultimate rounds of interviews of Spice Jet, Indigo, Kingfisher and Qatar Airways.
A fresh batch of students recently returned from Delhi after a successful round of interviews conducted by a major company in UAE.
“Besides airlines, we are also trying to place our students with leading hotels or tour operators,” said Patel.
Frankfinn, which offers a one-year course in avia- tion, hospitality and travel management, right now has over 200 students in seven batches.
