The participating hotels were Fiesta Resort & Spa, Hyatt Regency, Palms Resort Saipan, Pacific Islands Club and Laolao Bay Golf Resort.
Fiesta Resort’s Elena Soll said they didn’t give application forms to prospective applicants who were instead encouraged to visit the hotel.

She said they provide a stipend, free meals and other benefits to their interns who may be eventually hired by the hotel.
