What should I include in a CV for hotels and housekeeping?
Highlight reliability, attention to detail, shift availability, previous cleaning/housekeeping tasks, and any references if available.
How do I find weekend or evening shifts?
Use shift and schedule filters where available, and check each vacancy’s working pattern section for weekend/evening requirements.
