I applied in-person. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at Holiday Inn Express (Oneonta, NY) in Oct 2018
Interview
Talked to an interviewer for five minutes, was given a "more in depth application" he said they have candidates fill out. Turned out to be the same application I already filled out! Said he would call in a few days, never called, ignored my return calls. Unprofessional. Called four months later asking me to come back in for an interview for housekeeping.
first applied through website, then I was invited for interview by the general manager at the hotel location then I got offer in a week after that. It was pretty straight forward.

Question 1
Asked me about my availability during holiday breaks as a college student.
Easy going, asked about my resume and questions about why I wanted to be there. Also asked about what I wanted my hourly pay to be. I thought the process wasn't bad overall.
