Candidate-reported interview process

Usually, it's a group interview setup. If there are lots of applicants, or if you make it through the group stage, you might then have an individual interview. The group interview normally involves an activity planned by the property management. The individual interview is just a standard Q&A.

You'll kick things off with a group interview with other people applying. If you do well, the manager will get in touch for a one-on-one chat. My advice is simple—just be yourself and stay confident. Good Luck!

I had a simple one round interview. The General Manager contacted me, we had a phone screening, and then I had an in-person interview. It was straightforward and the manager was great, explaining the job expectations, pay, and benefits.
