I applied online. I interviewed at Ritz-Carlton (Chicago, IL) in May 2017
Interview
You have 2 interviews with the director of the position and the manager of operations. They ask you a series of behavioral based questions, if you have prior experience to something sales or customer service based then you will be fine!
I applied through university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Ritz-Carlton in Mar 2019
Interview
easy, simple and quick.
I had to go through two interviews with hotel manager and front office manager in order to get the offer letter. They made the decision fairly quick enough. I took my interview in march 2019 and in April I already had signed my contract.
