The needs of the guest are not 9-5, but 24/7. This means that a hotel manager may need to work odd and long hours. The interviewer needs to know that you are willing to put in the number of hours that may be needed, covering for absent workers or just supervising others. Reassure the interviewer that you are able to work whenever is needed, even if it means weekends or after midnight.

"I am used to working all the time. The job I have now makes me cover for any employee that does not show up. So some days I am in housekeeping and others I am at the front desk. I will have no problem working whenever I need to."
