I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Marriott International in May 2010
Interview
Very easy at the time. The specific hotel did all the hiring once I took an online test. The general manager called to set up an interview. They did hiring pretty much on the spot and we were able to move forward.
It was a super chill interview, they definitely used the STAR method and asked typical questions, including about how to deal with a rude guest, and how you deal with a rude or uncomfortable coworker.
