I applied in-person. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Holiday Inn Express (Las Vegas, NV) in Jan 2013
Interview
I walked in and was interviewed on the spot after handing my resume personally to the front desk manager. He asked me some basic questions like "How many times were you late to your previous job", "Why do you want to work at Holiday Inn Express", "What do you know about Holiday Inn Express". Then I was called the same day for a second interview with the general manager, who went into some questions a little more extensively.
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Holiday Inn Express in Jul 2021
Interview
The interview process was borderline non-existent. I was offered the job on the spot with almost no questions. Incredibly easy interview process and easy job overall. This process may differ depending on which hotel you're at and how desperate they are, but it was not a problem for me.

I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Holiday Inn Express (Lansing, IL) in Sept 2015
Interview
I applied online for the Front Desk/Night Audit Position on a Thursday morning and was called to schedule an interview the same day. I interviewed that Monday. To my surprise, it was a group interview. Apparently, it was the first one they've done so they apologized for any kinks. I usually don't like group interviews, but this one was great. I was happy to have other people there to share the spotlight. We all equally got the opportunity to ask questions and input our opinions. There was a group of four of us and it lasted about an hour. I was called a few days later for a second interview. Yet another joint interview. It was only two of us. Lasted about half an hour. I was emailed the next day with a job offer. Whole process took about a week.
