I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Hilton (Long Island City, NY) in May 2014
Interview
I met with the Dining manager and the supervisor for a 2 on 1 interivew. Basic going over qualifications on resume etc.
The HR Manager was still being hired so met with the GM and asked basic interview questions. She was afraid that my education would hinder my performance because of how ad hoc they run the place.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Hilton (Orlando, FL) in Apr 2012
Interview
I applied online and was contacted a few days later. No phone interview, just scheduled a time to go in. Very long interview process. I met with at least 4 managers on property. Spent about 3 hours going to multiple offices located through the building to be interviewed. During the interviewing process HR called my references. The last step was a drug test administered by HR. They used a mouth swab and had to wait for results in front of HR rep which was a little uncomfortable.
Applied online, was called in to meet with one of the supervisors, then was called back to fill out paperwork with HR. Very easy, very standard for this type of position.
