Those that fill out a Bellagio application are striving to join a hotel and casino that is known for its luxurious atmosphere. From their fountain on the strip to their Italian décor the hotel and casino aims to take their guests away from Las Vegas. Links to apply for jobs at Bellagio are at the bottom of the page.
Conceived by Steve Wynn in 1993, construction on the Bellagio had to wait until the demolishing of the Dunes hotel was completed. By mid-1996, construction was well underway and the Bellagio opened in the fall of 1998. Mirage Resorts Inc., the owners of the Bellagio, merged with MGM Grand Inc. in 2000.
One of the most well-known features of the hotel and casino is the fountain that separates the actual hotel and casino from the strip. While music plays, water is shot into the air, choreographed to match and dance with the music. Originally, the fountains were only meant to last for seven years, but with the arrival of 2015, the fountain is nearing its twenty year anniversary.
Besides the fountain, the Bellagio has several more attractions, including a conservatory and botanical garden, a gallery of fine art, as well as at least nine restaurants. The permanent show at the Bellagio is O from Cirque Du Soleil, but there are several rotating shows that come and go.

Advice for the Application Process
How to apply for Bellagio online: start by searching for the position that you’re interested in. Once you’ve found it read all of the job requirements carefully before filling out your Bellagio application. There is no printable application for Bellagio on their website.
Before attending your interview, do research on the company and the industry in order to have a list of questions that you can ask at your interview.
