What qualifications do I need to be a Maid in a hotel?

I am wondering what qualifications do I need to work in a hotel as a Maid/Housekeeper, I have a very strong background in working a communicating with the public. I am also a very out-going, energetic and able to muility tasked person and able to get task done in the time frame that is giving to me.

What do employers look?


You don't need to know much in terms of "book smarts' but I would put being organized, cleanliness-oriented and very meticulous at the top of the list.

I worked for ONE DAY as a hotel housekeeper and wouldn't do it again even if it meant living under a bridge someday. That's the hardest job I ever had. You have a list of everything that must be done per room, and you have to do it within a certain amount of times, so that you can do all the rooms assigned to you by the end of your shift. I was crying by the end of the day, I'm not joking. It just seemed like I couldn't get anything right or do it well enough to please my trainer/supervisor. You're talking down on your hands and knees cleaning and scrubbing, and that's if you have a guest that didn't trash the place or have rough/messy sex or something equally awful that you have to clean up after.

Good Luck.

My daughter was a maid in a motel, along with an old lady who was a real problem, a young lady who talked to herself and heard voices, and a few types who seemed more normal.

The motel I stayed in last week seemed to have a lot of male housekeeper types, too.

Be aware that a lot of places don't pay housekeepers very well, and tips are often quite low.

Qualifications for the job of Maid:

A pulse.

Fully ambulatory.

That's about it. I speak from experiance. I went through a work-release program at our county jail. The girls there were all maids, and most were convicted felons. Have fun.

CAN U NOT ANSWER MY QUESTION WITH ' PLEASE RE WRITE YOUR QUESTION' IF YOU DONT UNDERSTAND DO NOT ANSWER IT!

YOU OBVIOUSLY HAVENT HAD A BABY OTHERWISE YOU'D NO WHAT 4/5 ENGAGED IS!

TO ANSWER YOU QUESTION REGARDING MAID YOU NEED TO BE POLITE UNDERSTANDING AND IF YOU HAVE A STRONG BACKGROUND WORKING WITH THE PUBLIC I WOULDNT EXPECT YOU TO COME ACROSS SO RUDE.

YOUR QUESTION DOESNT MAKE SENSE ' WHAT TO EMPLOYERS LOOK?

None, in fact that was my first job when I was a teenager.
