Tia Jarvis-Smith, marketing intern
Kip Yamada, marketing specialist
The Situation
Tia just accepted a marketing internship at the Prestigio Hotel and Resort. Kip Yamada, a marketing associate at
the Prestigio, was the contact person for the internship. Hiring an intern for the summer was originally his idea,
and he oversaw each stage of the hiring process. He received more than 50 résumés for the internship position. He
narrowed these down to five applicants to conduct phone interviews. Next, he narrowed this group to two finalists
for the position for onsite interviews. Tia came out as the clear choice in Kip's mind.

During the phone and onsite interviews, Kip was impressed with Tia's responses to several questions. On the
phone interview, Kip asked her, "Why do you want to work in a hotel?" Tia responded, "Well, I don't want to work
at any hotel. I want to work at a hotel that holds great meetings and conventions. I developed a sense of
community pretty early in my life, and I want to be part of bringing together communities of professionals. From
what I've learned, the Prestigio is a leader at doing this." She elaborated about her knowledge of the Prestigio and
showed a good understanding of marketing for meetings.
Later, in the onsite interview, Kip delved deeper into Tia's desire to market meetings, "Tia, what kind of experience
do you have marketing and running meetings for professionals?" Tia responded, "I don't have a lot of firsthand
experience with organizing large meetings, but I've been volunteering at our local Chamber of Commerce events
for the past two years. Usually, I have minor roles like being a greeter or receptionist. But, I've seen how they run
events with 100 to 200 businesspeople. I've talked to a lot of the participants and have some understanding about
what they are hoping to get out of the events. As far as me organizing events, I've done a lot with school clubs and
summer camp events. Even though these events are all for small groups, I think I've learned a lot about how to
organize and schedule activities that appeal to people." Tia spent ten minutes talking about her many experiences
organizing smaller events and showed an apparent level of sophistication about events that was rare for university
students. Kip was generally strongly impressed with Tia's excellent interpersonal skills and ambition.
While Kip was confident that Tia would perform well as an intern, he did have a few minor concerns, which were
sparked by comments during the interviews. Kip asked her how she dealt with difficult people, and she responded
simply, "I've never had a hard time working with anyone. I really believe that if you're committed to learning and
sharing with others, you won't have any big problems." Kip perceived this comment as somewhat simplistic and
naïve. When he asked her about how well she met deadlines, she said she "usually met deadlines" but was "open
to extending deadlines when other priorities come up." She explained her philosophy that people need to "be
flexible and focus on the big picture." Kip was somewhat perplexed by these comments but recognized that she
had a fairly solid record of achievements.
