Employment

We take great care to recruit our people in order to ensure they have the qualities essential to maintain our vision of good old fashioned hospitality.  With that we have blended a good team of local and sometimes not so local talent.  We look for staff through our website, adverts through local media and a steady flow of walk-in applicants.  

Our selection procedure starts with a basic interview and this, depending on the specific employment type, may well result in instant employment.  Those applicants seeking salaried employment, can expect further interviews.
 
Due to the wide range of services and products that the Pine Beach Hotel offers we try to gain a commitment of at least six months from potential staff and this is made clear from the outset of the interview. Interviews are conducted in an informal manner to try and gain an insight into the personality of the applicant rather than a measure of their skills. We do not necessarily look for people with a wealth of experience, but rather for people who we feel fit into our way of thinking, will be professional and reliable and who seem to show an active interest in the job they are applying for.

We have found that the above avenues of recruitment yield people who have the intelligence and commitment to become very good bar people, cellar people, or waitresses, even if they do not intend to make a career in this field. 

There are other advantages in recruiting through these channels. For example we do not have to try and re-condition people who have unfortunate preconceptions of how the 'Pine Beach Hotel' should be run.
