5/5
I serve guests,greet them and clean their rooms.i follow the brand standarts for the cleanliness and room set ups.all areas must be hygenic clean. I talk with guests to find out if everything is ok and if there is any place for improvement.its very important to get this guest to return again.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
4/5
I think it is organised well.sometimes i feel that i have to look into more details than a housekeeper actually needs.but like i mentioned earlier,its very good to b3 confident in every departament.this is very difficult time as i have not had chance to see my mentor in person.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
4/5
I am not sure what support i have to mention.there is no support.if i can mention that my manager is always there to help and head house keeper is always happy to help but i cant think about any other support.if i ask any questions,they try to answer but its not very often
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
My mentor is always available and if i need anything i can contact het any time but as the times are difficult and there is no chance to meet in person its difficult to think about all things what i need when we are on the call.but she supports me well
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
I am very nice and open person and being positive comes from me naturally and im sure the guests are being treated in our hotel by the best.i cant say that i have learned a lot bit it is some things witch have shown me what exactly needs to be done and i can clearly see if somebody is being wrong.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
4/5
