I applied online. I interviewed at Hyatt (Chicago, IL) in Aug 2015
Interview
I applied for an Event Sales Manager Position with Hyatt at McCormick Place in Chicago. After passing the assessment I received an email from the Director of the department. She addressed me as a he, once I got to the interview this lady acted as if she had never seen the resume that she emailed me about requesting an interview. She felt that my experience did not match the needs for Hyatt. WELL WHY DID YOU CONTACT ME IN THE FIRST PLACE. This can only lead me to believe she did not like that I'm a black female.
Virtual interview first with director of events and associate director of events and then an in person interview at the hotel with the general manager, offer was made a few days later
Met with the Director of events and 2 associate directors, of catering and special events. Felt a great connection with all of them and learned more about the role and company. Was told they still had over interviews to conduct but that I would hear back from them within a week.

Question 1
How would you describe your organizational skills?
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Hyatt
Interview
Interview was with the director of event and lasted about an hour. Very conversational and relaxed, but looking back on it I wish she had been more specific about her expectations. I was hired to sell event space but never got to see the spaces during the interview. That may have changed my mind about the job.
