Passport into Hospitality

If you love to travel, are easy to socialize with and are passionate about meeting people from all around the globe, the Hospitality might be the industry for you. How and where else can you live and work in places others vacation in? Hours are flexible and you'll find any shift from early morning to overnights as well as any skill level jobs. The beauty about the industry is that your background and education doesn't matter. You can be just as successful in the Hospitality with an MBA in Hotel Management or without even having finished high school. The Hospitality is still one of the only industries where you can work your way up. Most General Manager's do not have degrees and I know plenty of success stories from pot washer to Head Pastry Chefs or General Managers or whatever you put your mind to.
Sure if you want to become a famous Chef going to a cooking school will help along that path. If you would like to become a manager in the Hospitality having a College degree will help along the way and might make getting work permits easier, however it's not a must.
If you would like to combine your passion for the Hospitality and you do decide to get a degree in it, I would recommend Swiss Hospitality schools. Not only are they famous for their Hospitality but they offer very hands-on and well rounded degrees. You'll learn everything from cooking to serving, to pairing Wine & Food to Accounting, Housekeeping, Sales and Human Resources. In addition, you're studying in a beautiful country and your fellow students come from around the globe. I included a couple of links on the side of the blog of hotel schools & universities.
