About the role
This interview tests how you lead a reservations function while turning booking and market information into pricing and inventory decisions. The panel will look for commercial judgement, accurate processes and the ability to align sales, front office and reservations when demand changes.
How to prepare
- Revise how occupancy, average daily rate, RevPAR, booking pace, pickup and cancellation patterns guide decisions.
- Prepare an example of improving reservation accuracy, response time or conversion through coaching or a process change.
- Practise comparing the value of direct bookings, corporate accounts, groups and online travel agent business.
- Think through overselling controls, booking amendments, no-shows and recovery when channel connectivity fails.
- Rehearse leading a commercial meeting where sales demand, operational capacity and revenue goals compete.
Common mistakes
- Focusing on room rates while ignoring reservation accuracy and guest communication.
- Changing price before checking segment, channel, pace and market evidence.

- Making inventory decisions without aligning the teams that must sell and deliver them.
