I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Hyatt (Portland, ME) in Jan 2014
Interview
Do not stay at this hotel if you wish to sleep. When the front desk clerk asked us if we wanted a white noise machine when checking in (BAD SIGN #1), we at first said "No," having previously lived in Manhattan and erroneously assuming we would not be disrupted by street noise. Our room directly faced a nightclub
It was very smooth and i felt comfortable talking with the managers about my career and their journey to be part of Hyatt. They were really nice and welcoming during the interview process.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Hyatt
Interview
It seemed informal, due to the fact we sat in the lobby to do the interview. My interviewer was late, but was very polite in the questions she asked. Was asked about difficulties I faced and how I handled them, which I believe was what decided my fate for the job.

Question 1
Difficulties I faced in previous work environments?
It was a good interview. The people were on time and professional. I am very excited to join the team. Is this 30 words yet? I hope so. I can't believe I have to write a review to use this website.
