What starting salary should I ask for?
Question
I am 22 years old and have just graduated from university with an honours degree in hotel management.
I am about to apply for the position of deputy head housekeeper for a hotel in the South of England (not London). The hotel has a four-star rating and is part of a large chain.
I feel the hotel is messing me about with the rate of pay. When I go for an interview I would like to know what rate of pay I should be able to ask for.
I have about one-and-a-half years' work experience in the hotel and a large percentage of this time has been spent in the housekeeping department.
