I've name changed but last Monday I posted after my terrible interview at the Hilton hotel for housekeeper.
I don't know if anyone can remember
They asked me to make a bed in front of 5 staff and all slagged me off in front of me -and it was awful

Anyway
Just been offered a job as a receptionist at the Radisson blu hotel.
It's full time 37.5 hours and only 12 mins drive away from my house instead of 1 hour train ride away
I'm honestly so happy
I would much rather do this role as reception than housekeeping
All the people that said I would find something else -Thankyou ❤️

It's brilliant! Don't do yourself down!

Congratulations.. I was lucky enough to be given a chance at a receptionists job with no experience. I love it! I was told that older (I mean not young) people are so much nicer to work with. Enjoy every minute x

OldTinHat · 09/08/2024 19:43

Waaaahoooooooooo! Congratulations! 🥳

FuckKnowsMate · 09/08/2024 19:47

I remembered that ridiculous interview! Congratulations and all the best in your new role!!

Marketplacevirgin · 09/08/2024 20:07

Well done! I often stay in Radisson Blus - I'll look out for you!
(I'll use the special Mumsnet handshake obviously!).
Hope you enjoy your new job.

ShakeUpYourTiredEyes · 09/08/2024 20:07

Love that for you, well done.

I was fuming on your behalf and upset reading your last post.

Thevelvelletes · 09/08/2024 20:07

Congratulations..I hope to follow suit soon.
I'm over 50 unemployed and trying like hell.
I know the pain that you went through with bad interviews..
All the best with your new job.

Dreamiesarecatcrack · 09/08/2024 20:13

So pleased it's worked out like this for you OP, I saw your other thread and the Hilton treated you horribly. I'm having a shit time job hunting (amongst other things) right now so it's given me hope reading that things have turned around for you. I hope you'll be really happy at the Radisson, they're lucky to have you Flowers
