VacancyHQ Expert Job Listing Tips

  1. CV TIPS

    • In my experience, restructuring your CV to match the position's requirements can help you to stand out. Use keywords that are specific to the job description - such as 'Spa Manager', 'high-end Spa', 'overseeing operations'.
    • Highlight your qualifications in Beauty Spa Therapist and Business Administration/Spa Management in the education section, these are key prerequisites for this role.
    • Showcase any experience you've gathered in the Spa industry in the past 2-3 years in a high-end environment. Refer to results, not just responsibilities.
    • Specify your experience in managing financial aspects, controlling costs, and preparing expenses reports. Over time, I have learnt hiring managers are interested more in specifics rather than generalities.
    • If feasible, include any experiences where you have coordinated marketing activities or overseen promotional plans for a spa or related businesses.
  2. IMPORTANT THINGS TO TAKE NOTE OF

    • The application deadline is very strict, end of business on 31/10/2023 - do not wait until last minute to send in your application.
    • They have specified how to apply - via email. Be sure your attachment formats are in acceptable format (pdf. doc), clearly labelled and not too large in size.
    • Notice the requirement for Computer literacy (ICDL) as an added advantage. Even if you do not meet this, mention any digital proficiency you may have.
    • They require the educational certificates attached with the application, make sure you do not forget.
    • From my observations, a job posting that lays out an explicit set of qualifications is typically looking for an exact fit. However, express your passion and willingness to pursue supplemental training or certificates if you don't meet every criterion.
  3. THINGS TO STAND OUT

    • Mention any awards, recognition or positive customer feedback received in the past for your service. This can show proof of your commitment towards providing top-notch services.
    • If you have any experience in training or mentoring staff, it's essential to highlight this. Training and mentorship of Spa staff is cited as a primary duty in the job description.
    • In my years of service, I have noticed it is not just about fulfilling the role, it’s about adding value. Consider mentioning how you can positively contribute to their brand and reputation as a premium hotel and Spa.
  4. ANALYSIS OF JOB LISTING

    • They need one who cherishes customer service. Delivering a "five-star treatment" suggests they are interested in someone capable of providing exceptional service to their clients.
    • The position involves not just the service provision aspect, but also has a financial and managerial aspect to it. Notably, budgeting, expense reports and ensuring an effective cost control system. Novice applicants might not give the financial responsibility aspect the importance it deserves.
    • The emphasis on policies, procedures and standards indicates they prioritise structure and order. Showing familiarity with spa policies, standards and procedures would be a definite advantage.
