A job fair is being held on Thursday, April 16 and Friday, April 17 for the Courtyard by Marriott hotel in Laie.
The operator of the Laie hotel, Lodging Dynamics, is sponsoring the fair being held on the BYU-Hawaii campus from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the Heber J. Grant building.
Full and part-time positions are available, including supervisory / management positions. Any and all interested applicants are invited to attend.
"We expect to employ about 50 people, both full-time and part-time employees in hotel management, maintenance, housekeeping, front desk, and food service positions," said David Betham, general manager for the Laie hotel.
Betham, a long-time Ko'olauloa resident, was hired several months ago and oversees all aspects of the new hotel's operation.
Betham said that in addition to these 50 jobs, qualified students in BYU-Hawaii's Hospitality & Tourism Management major are expected to fill several internship positions. "Training in the Marriott hotel system is very valuable instruction and a real career asset, both nationally and internationally - we're pleased that both employees and student interns will receive this benefit."
