I applied online. I interviewed at AvantStay (Santa Rosa, CA) in Nov 2020
Interview
Spent a decent amount of time on video interview with General Manager who I have never seen or heard from since. Then had second video interview with GM and colleague Area Manager that was supposed to include about 4 other people who were not available that day. Positive interview that foreshadowed the fact that appointments change at the last minute and not all workers communicate with each other effectively

Question 1
I don't really remember the questions as I tend to be a strong interviewer and often I am the question asker.
We love that you recognize that you're a strong interviewer! Must be one of the reasons you joined the team. Schedules do change quickly here, that may be due to the nature of hospitality and the ever-moving target of guest satisfaction. Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review!

Question 1
Started with back ground, and went into job specific scenarios.
I applied and had a recruiter named Amanda reach out to be a few days later. She was super informative and friendly during the call and we walked through my experience and I learned more about the day to day for the role. After that I met with the hiring manager and other members of the operations team. Everything was a great fit and I ended up getting an offer within a couple weeks. Amanda checked in with me several times and made sure I felt prepared and had all my questions answered. Overall really fast and great exp.
