Concierge Supervisor interview questions
- How would you respond to a guest requesting transport that the hotel cannot verify as safe?
- How do you deal with a concierge vendor offering a personal referral commission?
- What should you check before promising a reservation at a restaurant?
- How would you manage three simultaneous VIP guest requests during check-in?
- What details belong in a concierge handover, and what should remain confidential?
Use the same role-related core questions for applicants to the same position. Ask what the candidate personally did, what information was available and how their decision affected the result.
Practical hiring test
Suggested 45–60-minute assessment: Use a fictional arrival list and five guest requests, including an accessibility need, delayed transport and an unavailable restaurant. Ask for a prioritized service plan and a concise written handover. Use fictitious employer and guest data, provide comparable instructions and allow appropriate adjustments for accessibility. Avoid requiring applicants to perform unpaid productive work.
