Behavioral Technical

They asked general questions about customer service and hospitality. Also asked how you would approach resident conflicts and what made you interested in working as a housing safety ambassador. The interview was not too difficult but your school schedule shouldn't conflict too much with the work times.

Confirmed questions1 question
  • What is hospitality? What does it mean to you?
