In my business portfolio I will be writing about the responsibilities that the staff have to carry out during the day, these staff will be a manager, a supervisor and an employee. Also I will be investigating the qualities that an employer will look for in a potential worker. I will also look at the recruitment and selection process. I will also be looking at interviewing skills and I will carry out my own interview and plan and take part in the recruitment and selection process. I will also look how effective PEST factors are in the recruitment process and how important they are in the workplace. Also I will look at how staff are motivated in the workplace and ethical responsibilities in the recruitment process.

They employ over 10,000 employees and they have over 45 centres and these centres span across the UK, their main competition is Stryker’s bowling and in Bentley Bridge their rival is Cineworld. Their main aim is to provide entertainment to families and they do this with their arcades, bowling alleys and indoor restaurant and sports bar.
History of Hollywood Bowl
The business was first set up in 1900 and in 1947 they went into the bowling business with their first pin spotter machine and in 1960 they expanded their business into the UK and became one of the leading bowling companies in the UK. The UK business was then bought by Bourne leisure in 2004 which is one of the largest leisure companies.
The centres now hold a variety of entertainment including an arcade in most of the stores, cooked food is sold in all of the stores and all of the stores have top of the range bowling alleys with state of the art computer systems which recognise how many pins are left. Hollywood Bowl also merged with The Bowling Company.
