If the position you are applying for is management-related, chances are you will have some input into strategic planning and having to prepare a budget. The interviewer would like to know more about your exposure to the financial side of the hotel business. If you have experience in strategic planning and budgeting, outline this for the hiring manager, including the size of the budget with which you have experience. If you do not have experience with budgeting or financial plans, think back to what you may have learned during your post-secondary education.

"I have not had direct involvement in strategic financial planning; however, part of my business degree included courses on financial planning. I am a quick study and look forward to learning more about the budgetary and planning needs of Ritz-Carlton."
