At CareerCamp, students of Enderun Colleges learned just what it takes to make it in the hospitality industry.

To an audience of International Hospitality Management students, Norman Eusebio (from Microtel Inn and Suites), Jaye Godornes (from Plantation Bay Resort and Spa), and John Tanjangco (from Bellarocca Island Resort and Spa) shared stories about their work and life in hotels, and gave students a peek into their possible futures.

Some tips from our esteemed panel:

• Know how to keep your cool. Dealing with guests and co-workers can be difficult, but losing your temper or cracking under pressure won’t help your situation.
• Be sensitive of other cultures. No matter where you work, if it’s the hospitality industry you will be dealing with a multicultural environment.
• Practice your communication skills—a must in any service-oriented industry.
• Know what to specialize in. Once you’ve chosen your dream career in the industry, find out who currently have those jobs, and what decisions they made along the way.

Enderun’s students also got some tips for better resume writing and job interviews, courtesy of Michael Co and Carmina Esguerra of Bronze Age Media.

A CareerCamp for Business Administration and Entrepreneurship students is planned for October, underscoring Enderun’s commitment to provide quality education and career services for its students.
