As a front desk agent, I was responsible for handling check-in and check-out procedures. I also made confirmation calls to guests who were scheduled to arrive at the hotel. In addition, I had the opportunity to work with international clients and assist them with their bookings. To streamline the booking process and ensure timely and accurate updates, I utilized the IDS software to maintain a tracker of guest information.
