I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Ritz-Carlton in Aug 2014
Interview
I had two interviews. I waited about 45 minutes each time for them to come interview or confront me. So don't think you will be out immediately. My first interview was the longer one asking about history and why I stand out. Just say how you love the ritz carlton and the marriott. You can even learn the credo before hand. Act like the ritz is your life and that you would love to make a career with them. My second interview was about 20 seconds she asked me who interviewed me and a couple of the same questions then offered me the job.
It was pretty Formal. They were mostly pretty standard questions about goals and de-escalation. They asked about what motivates me and how I personally keep people engaged in new material
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How do you keep new people engaged with unfamiliar material
It was one interview that was very straight forward and they look for those who are passionate about hospitality. Even without prior experience if you’re willing to learn they’ll accept you and help you grow.
I applied in-person. I interviewed at Ritz-Carlton (Berlin)
