The interviewer wants to understand your banquet experience and make sure the person they hire is not overwhelmed. Being able to manage and staff an event for 1,000 is much different than managing a dinner event for 20.

When answering this question, be sure to include the support staff (convention services/ room setup) and the temp agencies you work with. It can be difficult to hold a third-party agency accountable, highlight a couple of examples that show how many events you oversee during the peak season.

"I currently have a staff of XXXX FT, XXXX PT, and XXXX on-call banquet servers. I work with three staffing agencies and require a supervisor on-site when we utilize their staff. We hold the staffing agency employees accountable just as we do our own, and at the end of each event, we have a post-shift meeting with each supervisor."
