Thomas Finn joins me. Director at Edwards & Finn, a revenue management recruiter, coming to us from New Castle, England. Key takeaways: -Competition for what jobs are out there is fierce. -Candidates aren’t getting feedback from companies. -Great candidates are being rejected b/c of very small differences between themselves and another fantastic candidate. -Profile of typical hotel hiring right now? Smaller hospitality groups. Corporate hotels seem to be behind. -Expectation of Revenue Managers has changed drastically over the years, now a commercial role, seen in the board room, highly analytic but also able to communicate, handle objection—character traits found in their sales counterparts.
