Delta Airlines has issued a very specific memo to those who want to apply for the positions for the flight attendants in the airlines. The interviewees must wear proper undergarments but those must not be visible, the eyebrow-raising memo said. On being asked why they had to mention something so obvious, a Delta spokesperson told Daily Mail that their intent was to be "more specific".

"In the interest of transparency and clarity for all perspective candidates we are encouraging people to 'dress for success' and give a great first impression as they aspire to join the flight attendant ranks," the spokesperson added.
This is just one point in the two-page memo that includes that the applicants should not have neon or multi-colored nails and how long their eyelashes would be etc. All staff member must always maintain personal cleanliness and hygiene, eyelashes should appear natural, avoiding extreme length and volume. Facial hair must be trimmed and neatly maintained, the memo said. Visible tattoos are not allowed and must be covered by clothing or waterproof makeup, but not bandages.

"Delta Flight attendants spend the most time with our customers and are the face of our airline, They must be passionate about enhancing each customer's experience while embodying the Delta brand," the flight attendant hiring appearance requirements stipulated.
On how to smell, the guideline said aftershave, cologne and perfume may be used but they have to be applied lightly. On the length of hair, the memo said there should be no color as in the locks must have a natural-looking hue. Hair touching the shoulder or longer than the shoulder must be pulled completely back and secured away from the eyes in ponytail, bun or braid.
