In order to apply for a Travel Consultant position do I need to have previous Travel Agent experience? What can I expect from your training programs?
Previous travel industry experience is desirable. We are also very interested in your personal travel experience, your proven sales experience and your passion for customer service.

Once you are successfully hired and place in your new store you will be enrolled in training. We take your development seriously and our talented trainers ( who have also been Flight Centre Limited Travel Consultants themselves) are here to ensure your time with us is as rewarding as possible. Our very own Learning Centre is charged with providing the training and tools necessary for your personal growth and career success.

How do "Educational's" or "Fam Trips" work?
Educationals and Familiarization trips are special programs run by wholesalers, companies or airlines to give agents a chance to experience their product. They range in duration and destination but are valuable tools to help you increase your sales and product knowledge. You will be invited to attend these by store or individually and they give you the opportunity to see some amazing locations in India and around the world.

How do I know which store I will I be working in?
Although our recruitment team will try and match you with a store as close as possible to where you live, it really depends on where we have an opening. Our recruitment consultants will discuss with you the openings we have available and try to find a suitable store location that meets your needs.

What hours can I expect to work?
There is no denying that your first twelve months will be a steep learning curve for you and will require dedication, passion and commitment. The hours that you will be working really depends on you. We are all hard workers but also enjoy the social company culture on offer and recognize that a work/life balance is important. A typical working day for a consultant is 10.30am – 7-7.30pm at night. You are also required to attend monthly buzz nights and yearly conferences.

What is a buzz night?
Buzz nights are held monthly for your area and are a fantastic opportunity to receive information and updates from travel industry suppliers. They are a great forum to recognise outstanding performances, information sharing and to bond with your fellow team members. Attendance is compulsory - unless otherwise arranged prior with your Team Leader.

Is there a possibility to transfer to work in other countries?
Yes. Once consultants or specialists have been employed for a minimum of two years and have established a reputation for dedication and success in the country where they are originally employed, they are entitled to apply for any positions within Flight Centre Limited worldwide. Flight Centre Limited does not guarantee sponsorship to work overseas.

Does Flight Centre Limited offer any internships/work experience?
Flight Centre Limited does not usually offer internships or work experience positions. There may be exceptions to this that are negotiated on a case by case basis.

Do I receive a uniform allowance?
For strong branding purposes, every employee is entitled to a uniform allowance per year - we love our uniforms as we are proud of our company (not to mention not having to worry any more about what you are going to wear every day!)
