Why these resumes work
- Tenzin lists every department rotated through and a guest comment, which helps a hiring manager place a fresher in the right team.
- Arvind gives the room count and team size in his first lines, the two numbers that show a hotel the level of operation he can run.
- The upgrade programme and review response bullets link front office work to revenue and reputation, the two things general managers track closely.
- Languages appear prominently in both samples, since resorts in tourist regions value staff who can greet guests in several languages.
