The hotel industry in North America is quite developed, which is closely related to the local economy. With good economic development, the company has many opportunities to expand its business, travel abroad and training opportunities; There is also a private holiday tour, and it is indispensable to stay in a hotel; The competition between hotels is fierce, and high-quality managers are needed.
However, few new immigrants in Canada are engaged in hotel management, mainly because they don't understand the industry. In fact, the employment rate in this industry is very high. Although the salary is lower than that of the IT industry, it is still ideal.
Hotel management industry is an industry dealing with people, and it doesn't need too many other professional and technical knowledge. As long as you are a very open and active person and like the work of dealing with people, then this industry is very suitable for you.
Especially in the hotel management industry, there is no age limit. The older you get, the richer your experience in dealing with people and the stronger your ability to handle things. For well-educated new immigrants from China, the hotel management industry is a good opportunity to do management simply and easily.
Hotel management covers a wide range, including star hotel management, international tourism business management, high-class restaurant management, casino management, golf course management, clubs and nightclubs, which are all very fashionable in recent years. According to my working experience in North America, it is easier for new immigrants to find a job as a domestic manager. There are many foreigners in the housekeeping department, which has certain requirements for the management level of managers, but the language requirements are not too high; In particular, the management of this department is trivial and needs careful consideration, which is suitable for China people. It was not difficult to find a supervisor position at first. 1-2 years experience, it is easy to find the opportunity to be a manager.
The course of hotel management is also very easy to learn. No matter what major you study, as long as you have enough confidence in solving interpersonal relationships, you have already succeeded halfway.
Professional prospect: Hotel management is one of the top ten hot industries in the world, and senior hotel management talents are always in short supply worldwide. In recent years, in the international talent market, hotel management talents are in short supply. With the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, the 20 10 Shanghai World Expo and more and more international large-scale events to be held in China, the demand for tourism and hotel management professionals in China is increasing, so you don't have to worry about employment. It is predicted that by 20 10, senior hotel management talents will become the hottest high-paying class in the workplace. Domestic hotel employees are mostly high-paid people. Hotel managers rank sixth among the top ten million-yearly salary occupations in China. Hotels and tourism will become the pillars of Shanghai's service industry. At present, there are 17 international hotel management groups investing in or managing high-star hotels in Shanghai. The hotel industry is constantly expanding, and the demand for talents is also increasing. Thousands of international hotel management talents are needed every year. Within three years, there will be 800 hotels in Beijing, and there is a strong demand for senior hotel management talents.
