Is there any practical assessment involved in the interview rounds of hotel jobs?

These two are like inseparable twins. Since time immemorial, interviews are conducted to select suitable candidates for the job. Now interview is a generic word. It means different things to different people and also across organisations. Higher management jobs always involve and perhaps will continue to have interviews by a panel of experts or search committees. This perhaps is inevitable since many traits of the probable inductee could be known/ inferred/ found out only during one on one interactions. Similar is the case with interviews in hotel jobs. Front desk, kitchen, customer relations.

Yes, hotel jobs also involve an interview round for selecting an individual. Hotel industry jobs are more of customer-oriented, so the interview is the best way to judge a person whether qualified the given position or not. Apart from just a question-answer round, people may be asked to perform some tasks as part of the assessment. Tasks like asking customer's requirement, serving customer's, greeting the clients etc. Also, the interview can be more of scenario-based questions where the interviewer will be eager to know the presence of mind/ street smartness of the interviewee. So, if an individual is preparing for Hotel related jobs than he should keep his mind free and clear thinking. An approach with a free mind and proper approach will surely help one to crack the interview and get the job with fewer attempts.

Hello, Jobs and interviews. These two are like inseparable twins. Since time immemorial, interviews are conducted to select suitable candidates for the job. Now interview is a generic word. It means different things to different people and also across organisations. Higher management jobs always involve and perhaps will continue to have interviews by a panel of experts or search committees. This perhaps is inevitable since many traits of the probable inductee could be known/ inferred/ found out only during one on one interactions. Similar is the case with interviews in hotel jobs. Front desk, kitchen, customer relations and some more such positions require human to human interaction and hence interviews can only determine the suitability of a person. Experts already available with the hotels are normally there for the assessment of prospective candidates.
