I set LinkedIn alerts for “pre-opening” and “event sales”; roles vanish fast — check brand pages too.

I landed a pre-opening interview last week by tracking brand press releases for hotels “opening Q1–Q2 2026,” applying on the brand site, then DM’ing the DOSM with a one-pager. Small caveat: these can turn into task-force/event sales coverage midstream — confirm whether it’s true “pre-opening” before the music stops.

Best luck I’ve had is hitting brand ATS pages at 8–9 a.m. local — Hyatt postings often land overnight, so I apply immediately via https://careers.hyatt.com, then DM the catering lead with a one‑pager; in “real-time” weeks like this, an hour matters. If that’s crickets, @michelle_o27’s DM play still works, or I pitch a 60‑day contract to help the launch team as an alternative.
