Hilton Singapore GM said hires should do one thing in interviews

"You're lucky if you get one - you hardly get one or two questions. I would really encourage everyone to ask at least four to five questions to really understand the business, and maybe get some career advice like, 'How did you get to this position?' Because as leaders we are happy to share, and maybe that can inspire the candidate or help them decide whether this is the right position they're looking for."

"He said that interviews are not a one-way street; the process involves two parties coming together to determine the best fit for the role. Janssen said that one thing he always asks his potential hires during interviews is what their dream is and what they want to become further down the line in their career. He's looking for people who dream big."

Michael Janssen, general manager of Hilton Singapore, emphasizes that job candidates ask too few questions during interviews, typically only one or two. He encourages interviewees to ask at least four to five questions to better understand the business and seek career advice from leaders. Janssen stresses that interviews are a two-way process where both parties determine fit for the role. He values candidates who ask about his career path and dream big for their own futures. With over 30 years of hospitality experience, Janssen believes leaders are willing to share their knowledge to inspire candidates and help them make informed decisions about positions.
