Page 1 of 2 Interview Tips for HIAS Candidates
Commonly Asked Questions The hotels evaluate your capability, characteristics, interests and motivation level through interview sessions. These criteria would then determine whether you are selected for the programme. Therefore, preparation for your interview is essential because it is the only contact point when you can personally sell yourself. You need to project a good image of yourself as well as projecting yourself as the right candidate for the programme. Please ensure that you get yourself familiarized with some questions below and conduct trial runs with another person but don't over-rehearse because you won't want to sound like a robot!v Tell us about yourself? Keep your answer brief. It's just a starting point to break the ice. What do you know about hotels? Do get some general knowledge about the hotel industry and the hotel you're applying before the actual interview. Go online or read to find out about the hotel industry such as the working condition, income, functions and types of departments in hotels, and profiles/characteristics that make up hoteliers, etc. Try to provide an impression that you have an interest, but of course let the interviewers tell you more about their hotels. Why do you want to work in a hotel? Why did you choose this particular ---- module? What do you know about this area of specialization that you have chosen? Provide personal reasons but from non-materialistic point of views. Why do you want to participate in this programme? Don't talk about what you want; first, talk about their needs: touch on how you can make a contribution to the hotel's goals. What about working in hotels do you find the most attractive? Least attractive? Do provide 3 attractive factors and only 1 minor least attractive factor. Do you mind to work based on shifts? Are you prepared to work long hours? Do not see any problems with shift work and long hours. Why should we select you? Because of my willingness to learn and contribute. What do you look for in a job? I look for opportunities to use and develop skills, to perform and to accomplish. Job satisfaction is also an important factor for me. How long do you think you will work with the hotel? For as long as we both feel I'm contributing to the hotel, achieving, growing and developing.
