I know you have to do so many works for your internship. The career service will assist you to do successfully apply and prepare the requirements. They give you the list and period of the submission. Then, follow the steps and check your email regularly.
You need to send your video profiles about yourself. I strongly believe that it helps to show little about your education knowledge, passion, mind, personality, and opinion about your future position in the hotel. The video profile is going to help you greatly when you have Skype interview. You should practice before having an interview so that you are able to answer unpredicted questions. Before started my first internship, I was nervous and could not predict my future internship. But, you do not need to be afraid or intimidated. After you got the accepted letter from the hotel, the human resource department will inform you well about the preparation, requirement, time and location through your email. Before starting your internship, it is better to visit the hotel and go around near the hotel. This is because, many guests will ask you about subway stations, bus stops, restaurants, banks, and places where in tourist attractions. Most of people use public transportation like bus or subway because interns don’t make a lot of money. If you have time, get to work by walking so that you are able to know which stores located in. Sometimes, you hang out, try and enjoy the culture of the country where you are in. If the hotel offers you accommodation, you do not need to cook and send money that much. However, most of hotels, do not offers the accommodation. So, if you know how to cook, it will help you to save money. In my place where is Busan, most of fine restaurants are expensive except local food. Living alone is not the easy that you think in the unfamiliar place, you have to consider so many things, eating food, transportation, doing laundry, cleaning your house, paying water bills, etc. I definitely believe that you will learn a lot of things and build your living skills more. You should manage finances planned and wisely. I would like to give you some the tips. First of all, you should set your mind all the time. I think, you’ve never undergone that experience, feelings, physically exhausted and care different types of guests. Secondly, you will be facing unexpected situation but you do not need to fear or worry about it. Just gives your bright smile and offer your best service to your guests. Thirdly, meet and make new friends. Sometimes, you need to hang out with your co-workers and stress out. Hanging our will be a good chance to close with your new friends. Lastly, you need to study that which stores are located around your hotel. The reasons why, many guest will ask you the facilities and some of them want you to recommend restaurants and tourist attraction places. Internship is a good opportunity to experience the real the world. I hope my tips and experience will help your first ever internship. I strongly believe that you will do good job with your technical skills, abilities and knowledge. Sincerely, Youmee KOH |
