The cut-off for applications for a job at Glasgow’s new boutique hotel is next week - and with a recruitment process unlike your average job interview, it could be worth dusting down your CV.

As reported on Glasgow Live, the Radisson RED is due to open next to the Hydro in spring , marking the first of the hotel chain's kind in the UK.

The RED brand is aimed at ‘millennially-minded individuals’, and staff don’t have just the one job - instead, they rotate and cover everything from housekeeping to food and drink, engineering to events.

There are 80 jobs going, decided by a ‘casting day’ at The Lighthouse complete with a live DJ on the decks.

Curator Michael Weston said: “We are on the lookout for RED brand ambassadors who connect with the world around them. We want our team of creatives to be socially aware and able to make genuine friendships with our guests. We encourage laughter, playfulness and even a little mischief with guests that will drive them to come back again and again.

“We are recruiting for a variety of positions, and for those who have never worked in a hotel before, it’s no problem at all. At RED personality is the most important part – we can show you the rest! Our team delight our guests through a concept called FLOW, that means they move freely through the hotel taking on a variety of tasks across all departments.

“Every day is different, they make the guests feel welcome, cook up tasty food, shake the cocktails and generally ensure our guests are happy, catered to and inspired.

"We were blown away with the response to our first recruitment drive where we had 400 applications for the first seven roles we released, and so we’re hoping for a great response.

“The casting day will give us the opportunity to see how well the candidates identify with our core values so that we can select the applicants that most align with our brand. We want confident individuals who love the city. Our creatives should stand out.”

Anyone interested in applying can send a CV along with a video clip, selfie or Instagram link to readyforred@radissonred.com by Tuesday (January 9).

The casting session will follow on January 22 at The Lighthouse, 9.30am-5pm.
