Staffing the Calgary
Airport Hotel and
Conference Centre
HILTON WORLDWIDE USES AN EXTENSIVE BENEFITS
PLAN TO COMPETE IN CALGARY’S TIGHT JOB MARKET
By Lynne Koziey, MBA
Hiring can be a daunting task at the best of times, so
you could forgive the management of Calgary’s newest
Hampton Inn by Hilton for taking a break after success-fully
placing 35 fresh candidates.
But the team is hardly resting on its laurels. It now has another
two hotels and a conference centre to staff, all part of the Calgary
Airport Hotel and Conference Centre (CAHCC), developed by
Prestige Hospitality Group and managed by Hilton Worldwide.
In addition to the 35 employees hired for Hampton Inn, an-other
35 were hired in January 2014 for the Homewood Suites.
