A hotel career
could make sense for your young adult!
Your child might be one of the few who has known for years where their future career lies – if it is in the hospitality industry, then that’s fantastic!
However, they may be part of the vast majority who don’t know what they want to do, or don’t have a particular passion. Most often, they tend to follow career choices based on the subjects they did at school and what courses they qualified for and even then, the future can look very hazy.
Have a think about your child and their interests:
1.
Do they love interacting with people?
2.
Do they have a creative streak?
3.
Do they love working with food?
4.
Do they get satisfaction from a job well done?
5.
Do they love working with numbers?
6.
Do they do well in a team environment?
7.
Do they show leadership potential?
If you’ve answered “yes” to ANY of these questions, then a career in the hospitality industry could be exactly right for them.
Some children (now, young adults) may not be ready to move onto tertiary study straight from school and that’s ok. The hospitality industry has many entry level roles that could fit their interests and from there, the possibilities are endless. If your young adult is keen to further their study, then click here to see the courses that will see them fly in the hospitality industry.
Hotels and pubs are keen to have a workforce of people who want to make hospitality their career and so will look to develop and upskill keen workers. Your young adult’s future is wide open with possibilities which, depending on their interests, could see them managing a pub or pub chain, heading up a hotel or beyond.
Our teams are COVID-SAFE
Cleanliness has always been central to a great hospitality experience, however the COVID-19 pandemic allowed hotels and pubs to critically analyse their cleaning, sanitisation and record-keeping practices to ensure the safety of their guests.
They have implemented far stricter protocols, even if not part of the hotel quarantine program. Now and in the future, guests will have high expectations around cleaning and sanitising rooms and public spaces, such as lobbies, lifts and corridors. This means that your young adult will be working in a very COVIDSafe and controlled environment – in fact, safer than many other work environments because of these exacting protocols. Pubs and hotels have embraced electronic contact tracing practices, to ensure they keep track of patron movements; strictly adhere to venue capacity limits; have enhanced cleaning frequencies and are using commercial grade sanitisers to enhance the safety of staff and guests.
Therefore, you should be confident that your young adult will be working in a highly COVIDSafe environment
