east of Belfast where the Titanic was built.
Tim Husbands, chief executive of Titanic Belfast, said: "It's difficult to gauge soft skills from a CV, but we need people who are polite, friendly, engaging and well informed - we want visitors to leave Titanic Belfast and return home with tales about how friendly
Northern Ireland is."
An additional audition day has been scheduled for Saturday January 21st following the surge of willing applicants, according to Mr Husbands.
