Hello Innspirers! I am so glad to have found you all! I have been reading and reading. The website is really what we were looking for. Y'all are REAL and we needed the TRUTH! Thanks! OK....
HURRAY! I think are getting very close to having employment. Yesterday tickets were purchased by our potential employers to fly out on the Sept. 21st and return on the 28th for a week long introduction/interview and, if it it looks like we are a good team - if we are a good fit, then to begin some training. I am scared to death =) excited, can hardly believe it, but hopeful! And, I've got questions...
I'm not sure if I am going to articulate my question right, but let me give it a try. I want to know what kinds of things should we take with us? I'm not asking if we should take toothpaste and a change of underwears And I know to take notepads, computer, pens etc. I wanna know if we should take anything with us for the interview part of the week. They have said they will be giving us an opportunity work our "magic". Not quite sure what that means...I have written and asked. But I am thinking part of it will be to observe how well we work in tandem, maybe our cooking skills?? This will only be the second time we have gotten this far in the interview process and the last time it was a two day interview for managing/innkeeping an Inn that served a light continental breakfast that guests came and got from up in the clubroom on their way to wherever. (The current Innkeepers decided they wanted to stay after the owners told them they had someone who was ready to take the deal. UGH!) This is really different. The job description includes almost every aspect of being a B&B Innkeeper. It is small - 5 rooms - and we will have a chef available during peak season for larger groups, and a landscaper to come in a 2 or 3 times in the spring/summer months - but in general we will be IT.
So can y'all help me at all with this. I am hoping you know more what the question is that I am trying to ask than I do =) ~grin~
