Answer 2

Generally, in order to get a hotel cleaning job you do not need to have previous experience. Most hotels will teach new employees how to properly clean rooms. The best way to find out is to look at the job description to view any listed qualifications. If you are applying for a head housekeeper position, you would most likely need previous experience.

For most hotel housekeeping jobs you simply must have a highschool diploma. With the economy the way it is today it is also helpfull to also have some past experience in the hotel/restaurant industries. like most jobs, the more experience you have in that industry the better the chances of landing a job in that field.
