I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Holiday Inn Express (Lodi, CA) in Apr 2014
Interview
I was contacted a day after submitting my application in person. I was offereded to meet with the front desk manager in person for a face to face interview. They questioned me on my previous Hotel Experience. I was asked which POS system i was familiar with, and my availability. The interview was very calm , They didnt try to make me nervous, or use trick questions or anything. it was a very straight forward Q&A interview
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.
