In cabin crew interviews at many international airlines, candidates draw a slip of paper with a word or sentence on it and speak about it in English for one to two minutes. Qatar Airways runs this by having candidates pick from a bowl, and other Gulf carriers use the same format.

What is assessed is not vocabulary but how quickly a candidate can organise a response to an unexpected prompt. Practising with words you have already seen does not build that skill.

OneMinuteCrew keeps each card hidden until you draw it, so the conditions match the real thing.
