One of the best parts of my job is being able to contribute to skill development for the next generation of professionals.

Many hotel management students expect a fancy job with a big salary after their internship, but they might be mistaken. Parents often sacrifice a lot for their children's hotel management education, hoping for success. However, it's crucial to understand the practical aspects, challenges, and necessary skills before committing to such courses. 👉 Seeking professional advice and counseling prior to investing in hotel management education is paramount. #students #hotelmanagement

🍁 9-Month Canadian Adventure Update! 🚀 May 2023 marked the beginning of my extraordinary Canadian journey, diving into college life with determination. Those initial days were a labyrinth of challenges, navigating a new country solo. Yet, with time, I realized I was not just managing but acing it. The first 5 months were a financial management masterclass, navigating the complexities of student life without a part-time job. Persistence paid off when I landed one's dream role at Läderach. Working with Swiss chocolates – a sweet tooth's dream! 🍫 This experience not only deepened my understanding of ingredients but also heightened my commitment to exceptional customer service. The quest for a mandatory internship was a 5-month odyssey—applied to over 200 positions, faced a train of rejections, secured two interviews. The first company took me to the final interview stage which I am very proud of but unfortunately, I didn't make it, and despite the rejection, it only fueled my determination. That setback became a stepping stone, leading me to the incredible opportunity of interning with the renowned Shangri-La Group Toronto, the finest in the hospitality industry. 🏨 Canada, often dubbed the "Land of Opportunities," has truly opened doors I never thought possible. Grateful beyond words for this transformative journey in a new country, a new continent. Working at the finest hotel in the hospitality industry in Human Resources a dream realized, and I am profoundly thankful for the opportunities it brings. Here's to continuous learning, more exposure, and experiences that shape my path. The rollercoaster only goes up! 🎢 Looking forward to the remaining 3 months of my internship, gaining more insights, and heading back to school in May for a new and intriguing chapter inspired by my current course—details to follow in a separate post. To my fellow LinkedIn hustlers, remember, even a train of rejections can't derail a determined spirit.💪 Can't wait to bring you the 18-month update! Stay tuned for more adventures. 🌟 #CanadianAdventure #NewBeginnings #LandOfOpportunities #LifeInCanada #InternshipJourney #KeepHustling #businessanalytics #home #jobopportunities #humanresources #hranalytics

"I had the chance to participate in the International Hotel Management Programme (IHMP) in Paris," says Rafael. "We were a group from around the world, and the year-long training covered everything from HR to asset management. It was intense, competitive, and - after 20 years out of the classroom - challenging, but invaluable."
