Hyatt is an international hotel company. There is a good chance that you will have multiple languages listed on our resume if this is a skill that you possess. If you do speak additional languages, discuss your proficiency in each language. Are you comfortable as a beginner, or conversationalist, or are you proficient?

"I speak English and Spanish fluently, and they are my native languages. I did take French and German in school for a few years, so I have a basic understanding of these languages. If I need to, I can get by on them."
