Interviewed May 2011 in Palm Desert, CA (took 2 days)
I initially was interviewed by two supervisors, I recieved a full tour of the spa before I was sat down to interview.
What they look for:
Professional Demeanor
Communication
Time management
Stress Management
Team Work
They usual questions like:
-Tell me a time when you WOW'd someone/ Exceeded their expectations
-Why Do you want to work for this company?
-What is your weakness
-What are your strengths
-What is your biggest accomplishment
-What are your future goals
-Tell me about your other jobs
The next week I Had an interview with the Spa Director. She was very nice and asked me somewhat the same questions. She also mentioned that the pay rate was MINIMUM WAGE and that I would be working FULL TIME and would not have time to go to school.
That was pretty much it, I got hired a month later and had a background and drug test.

Interviewed Mar 2010 in Las Vegas, NV (took 3 days)
The website asked for general background information and I also uploaded my resume. Within a few days, I received a call from the front-office manager asking me to come in for an interview. I didn't have any special contacts when I applied nor did I use any special tactics. I knew my experience was enough to get me the job.
They ask me different type of questions, one I clearly remember were: 1.) What is your job history like?
2.) Why did you leave your last job?
3.) How did you handle a bad situation at your last job?
4.) Do you seek guidance from managers, or do you solve problems on their own?
5.) Why did you choose Marriott?
6.) Is it a company you are truly interested in, or just something you just want to give a shot?

Interviewed Jul 2011 in Chicago, IL (took 2 weeks)
The interview process was very straight forward. They first called me with a phone interview asking questions using the situation, action, response scenario. After this, I was called in for an interview with one of the managers, who then brought in other managers from the department and departments that I would be working with, and the director of my direct department. It took so long because I was coming in from another state so I had to coordinate my travel times. After the in-person interview, they offered me the job on the spot, took me on a tour, and I got to meet a lot of people that I would be working with. Employment depended on a drug test, background check, and after passing these, a 2 day orientation training.
