Interviewed Mar 2012 in Orlando, FL (took 2 days)
The human resourse officer conducts a pre screening over the phone with questions such as," Name a situation where you went above and beyond your normal duties and why," "name a time where you had a difficult customer, what did you do and what was the outcome." Then they offer you to come to a face to face interview and they ask you similar questions from the phone interview.All Hiltons are different.

Interviewed Sep 2009 in Orlando, FL (took 2 days)
Applied for this position online through the Hilton website. I was called a few days later and told to come in for a face to face interview. When I arrived I went to the front desk/reception area. The HR rep was present at the desk and proceeded to conduct a fairly impromptu and casual interview right there and then. Questions were fairly predictable ex: "why do you think you could succeed in this position?" What are your interests/weaknesses etc, etc... This was done relatively quickly (10-15 mins) I assume she had other prospective candidates to interview that day.
I was told to go home and expect a phone call from a hiring manager. This phone interview included questions that asked me to recount past vacations or travel experiences and persuading the manager why he/she should want to purchase tickets/packages to these same places. Again relatively simple and short (10-15 mins)

Interviewed Oct 2009 (took a day)
I was hired as a temp. And was hired on as a result of my hard work and fit with the company about seven months later. Just did a drug test, background check and credit check. The culture is all about a positive attitude and ownership. My perception is everyone has to be very personable, talkative and social, enthusiastic, willing to turn a negative into a positive....Which is kind of a negative because if they tell you something you don't like or the team doesn't like, you have a bad attitude for not liking it. Be ready to accept the fact that your good and practical ideas will be shut down. Changes are made from the higher ups who have no clue about what the front line people do. So the changes most of the time aren't for the better but you have to smile about it or...You have a bad attitude.

Interviewed Aug 2008 in Orlando, FL (took 2 weeks)
It was very simple. They just want bodies in the seats. It is a revolving door at that company.
