Front desk agents staff the front desk of a hotel and are often the first people to greet incoming guests. They register new guests and process final bills when guests check out of a room. Depending on the size of the hotel, the front desk agent may also be responsible for answering phone calls, making room reservations, carrying guest bags to rooms, and answering complaints. Since this is a job in the hospitality industry, people in this position may work nights, weekends, and holidays.
