Hills (2004) reports on the recruitment process in Tiger Tiger, which is one of the UK’s most popular nightclub groups. As part of their recruitment process they host open days to allow potential employees to sample the Tiger Tiger atmosphere. A general manager, Beverley Harley, is quoted as saying, ‘the leisure sector is a particularly social and competitive one and we’re on the hunt for hardworking team players’. As part of assessing whether applicants have these attributes, during the open day potential employees take part in various ‘fun’ activities, including being asked who they would most like to be stuck in a lift with and which type of animal they would choose to be.
