I applied in-person. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Hotel Duval (Tallahassee, FL) in Sep 2014
Interview
Pretty standard interview. They ask questions that highlight your ability to be able to actively solve problems and appease guests. They don't require that you have hotel experience, however they do want you to have some sort of experience with customer interaction.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time that you were confronted by an angry employee.
