Your experience and how well you perform in your interview are two big factors that decide if you are the right candidate for any job. If you are currently searching for a new career in the hospitality industry, you might be wondering what is more important in the hiring process – your experience or the interview?
It is important to consider that during the hiring process, companies are looking at your personality and characteristics just as much as the experiences you’ve listed on your resume. Keep in mind that they also want a candidate that fits their preferences; How well would you transition into their company culture? These factors all go into the company’s decision if they think you can take on the challenges of the position you are interviewing for.
During the interview, be prepared to talk, make sure you’re ready to prove yourself early-on, stay relaxed, don’t be afraid to show sense of humor and expect each interview to be different. Many careers in the hospitality industry can be similar, but each company has its own personality!
