I attended the Seattle job fair and was really impressed by the turn out. I applied for a bartender position and was told I was going to receive a call back, I got my picture taken, and things went well with everyone I was interviewed by. I know that you must be super busy but I was wondering if you have already done the call backs and I missed the cut or if you’re still mulling things over.  Thank you for your time

Thanks for writing this above comment, Thailer. I've been wondering the same thing! I too, went to the job fair (on Thurs) and had a great interview. Being told I would receive a call back in 3-5 days, it's been over a week now and I still haven't heard anything. ?? Granted, they told me they were done hiring for the first round (by the time I went) and were now interviewing for the second. But still! Would just like to know if I made it or not... :)

Thailer and Nicolette,

We just wanted to let you know that all call backs have been made and positions filled.

Thank you very much for your interest in Hard Rock Cafe Seattle and for taking the time to attend the job fair.

I just found out that this Hard Rock Cafe was opening up in Seattle, and that there are positions available. I missed the job fair a couple weeks ago but I would like to let you know in my interest in this new opportunity in Seattle. I have just graduated from Full Sail University for Recording Arts and I am very interested in starting a career in the music industry. Please if you have any comments or questions please contact me via email and I would be happy to send you my resume. Thank you for your time and hope to hear from you soon.

I have been a HRC fan for quite awhile and I am very excited about a HRC coming to Seattle. I have been to over 40 cafes and hotels worldwide. It would be very exciting to me to be able to come to the cafe on opening day/night. Can you tell me what the opening date is?

Pretty exciting event for Seattle.  Any chance you will import the tuna sandwich on a large bun with excess tartar sauce and  huge fries from the HR in Honolulu. :)

I have a world wide travel industry group waiting to get a date for a banquet so open those doors and start the music.
