To find a career with a Fattal hotel, you need to find the correct corporate website for the region you want to work in. Job openings can also be found through LinkedIn. You can apply for a position directly or sign up for job alerts.
Once your application and CV have been reviewed, a member of human resources or a hiring manager will contact you either through phone or email. If your application seems promising, the next steps in the hiring process will be discussed.
The exact hiring process will have some variation based on the position you applied for, and the location and branding of the hotel. For most applicants the first step will be a telephone screening to discuss your background and experience. During this call you can find out more details about the position and ask any questions you may have.
Some candidates will be asked to attend a virtual interview through Microsoft Teams. This interview will be with another person, and not pre-recorded. You may be asked to complete some pre-hire assessments online. You are typically able to take these from your home computer.
The next step is an interview at a head office, or the hotel you have applied to work at. This face-to-face interview will be more in-depth and will focus on your experience and workstyle.
Some candidates, like front desk workers, will need to participate in a work trial. This is a chance to show your experience and get a feeling for what is expected as a Fattal Hotel Group employee.
