My Knightlife

   

As soon as I approached the front door at the Ritz I was welcomed by valet personnel that gave me a warm and friendly welcoming to the resort. I waited in the lobby until I was escorted to the Human Resource Department. At this time I was interviewed by the training director with the typical question interview. I believe it went really well. After working in the hospitality industry for 8 years, each question I had an example from my experience to explain. The interview really told me how perfect I am for the industry.

After the interview I met with Oliver and the Director of Reservations. It was very casual and completed in the lobby of the hotel. It was really a great opportunity for them to explain to me what they expected of me and where they would be utilizing my skills. It was also a time for them to find out what I expected to learn out of the internship. Both individuals were very welcoming, informative, friendly, and knowledgeable about their job and position at the Ritz. After the interview, I was given a tour of the property. The Ritz was built in 1991 and they are currently undergoing construction. The property was beautiful.
