They generally won't hire you unless you're black because white people are visually distracting in the cinema.

you have to be black...not white just wont cut it, because if your asian then the people wont see you, but they will detect your presence, making them paranoid and they wont be able to enjoy the movie

Heyys I want to apply at a cinema too ! Hoyts.

Does anybody here work at Hoyts? If you do, can you tell us if you applied online or handed in your resume please ! And information on when they called you after you applied

noob...i work at hoyts. I recommend handing in your resume and filling out the application form. Since we brang in the online applications we've literally had 100s of them coming in. I doubt they'll even be looked at. Resume with a cover letter all very presentable should be ok. We are getting picky with who we hire now because we have so many applications and you have to be good with your time. Also, don't bother applying if you are over 18, you are wasting your time. I've had a job for over 5 years now, and when I applied I was 17 but they were badly needing people back then and I submitted a cover letter with my resume. We now also have application forms which they will get you to fill out. Might take a month or so before they call you. Now is a good time to apply though as we have big movies coming out such as Eclipse, Sex and the City, Shrek 4 etc and its coming up to holidays. Good luck
