Hotel jobs
As career choices go, the hotel business isn't one that will put new college grads on the path to riches. With few exceptions, new employees can expect an annual salary of less than $40,000, a figure that has barely budged in recent years.The huge success of international and domestic tourism in India has given rise to pressing demand for quality professionals. The requirement for skilled and efficient human capital is urgent.
Combined with tourism hospitality creates one of the largest service industries in the world. Indian hospitality managers have built a formidable reputation for themselves and are being hired by international hotel chains and cruise liners in big numbers. The scope of opportunities being offered is unlimited, all that you require is the appropriate qualifications
While the economy has taken its toll on middle management, many companies are continuing to hire entry-level employeesin some cases at a blistering pace. Even those that are hiring fewer employees for entry-level jobs are competing more intensely for the very best. While traditional perks such as pensions and health insurance still have their
place, more companies are finding inventive ways to attract, retain, and motivate their youngest employeesusing everything from work-from-home programs to faster promotions to financial benefits that kick in a few years down the road
The past few years has seen an exodus of hospitality professionals to science and management areas like IT-enabled services , insurance, banking and healthcare, as also to travel, airlines, training, consulting and leisure. These fast-growing sectors are luring hospitality managers by offering larger salary packages. However the situation comes with the added advantage of even more opportunities for those suitably qualified and with experience. And the demand-supply gap is such that junior executives can make that leap to middle management and then on to senior management at a much younger age than before.
The demand for Indian hotel managers and staff in the international industry is very high. This is particularly so in the Middle East, in cities like Dubai. The shortage of skilled and experienced professionals is also being felt in developed countries in Europe (including the UK), the USA, Australia, Singapore, Hong Kong etc. Their preference for Indian managers remains high. Official surveys estimate that International employers recruit about 20% of Indian management graduates every year.
A fairly large number of International companies are now coming to Indian management institutions offering placements for newly trained graduates, in a routine manner.
