 Online hotel jobs

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

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.

Court Reporting Schools Offer a World of Career Opportunities
By Chelsea Aubin

 How many of us have tried to choose a degree but just keeping changing our minds on what we want to do? Personally, I’ve done it many times. In fact for many people who are in the process of choosing what they want to do for the rest of their lives, court reporting doesn’t usually hit their radar. There are however a lot of things that many people do not know about the job. When you think of being a court reporter, what do you think of? Well I’m sure many of us see it as the person sitting in a court room typing away as lawyer’s do their thing. However going to court reporting schools and being a court reporter may not be what you think it is.

Obviously as mentioned above many court reporters are able to make really good money. As I mentioned before there is a high demand for this job, and many people end up working overtime and you know what overtime may bring? Extra cash. Here’s another point you may not know about. Many people who go to court reporting schools to earn a degree, also work from home. It’s true. They can work from home as a freelancer if they wish too and work for themselves. Technology these day’s is just amazing, isn’t it? Or if working from home doesn’t appeal to you, you can also look for work from a court reporting agency or even an independent contractor.

So remember how I mentioned before about how people who have finished court reporting schools have gone on to do other things rather then going on to be an actual court reporter. Many people who have finished school have easily gone on to become hired by a broad casting company to provide closed-captioning for the hearing impaired. The point here is that you do have options and they are totally up to you.

So was that something that you weren’t really expecting? Not many people realize what you are able to do when you go to court reporting schools. One thing you may want to keep in mind is the fact that it may take roughly two to four years of school for you to learn your basic skills. Plus if you are a fast typer then you are well on your way. If now is the time that you are looking at a degree, take a look into court reporting, you may just be happy you did.

What Are Your Weaknesses?
By Lucy Evans

 With careful preparation, difficult interview questions can present you with an opportunity to shine under pressure. The important thing with all questions is to show a balanced and considered approach. The following examples will show you some of the pitfalls and ways to avoid them.

Lets start with the classic interview question what are your weaknesses?

There are many variations on this question, common ones include tell me a strength and a weakness and what are your three greatest weakness. To fully prepare you should have three strengths and weaknesses prepared. The worst mistake to make with this question is to claim you dont have any weaknesses. This approach is unlikely to impress the interviewer and will present you in a cowardly light. This question may not be as difficult as it first appears. Sit down and consider what your true work related weaknesses are. When you really think about it this is often quite a long list (I know mine is). The next stage is to think what you have done to overcome these weaknesses in your working life.

Let me give you an example. I personally am very task orientated, I like to get stuck in to the main tasks and often used to ignore the more minor responsibilities. I realized that although I completed my core projects, I had forgotten to do the other tasks I needed to do like complete time sheets and tracking reports. I now make lists of all the tasks I have to complete in a day and make it my priority to complete the list above everything else. This has really helped me to multitask more effectively. When choosing a weakness, look for one that is work related where you can demonstrate that you recognised the weakness, and found an effective method of overcoming it.

Examining your strengths can be just as difficult as your weaknesses. The important thing here is not to appear like an ego-maniac. Consider carefully what your strengths are, then consider the supporting evidence you have for these strengths. Always present a considered argument with supporting evidence.

Why are you leaving your current Job?

The purpose of this question is for the interviewer to discover if you are leaving due to any current difficulties. If you are unhappy where you are, whats to say you will not be unhappy in your new job. Avoid at all costs talking about any problems in your current job and especially any problems with your current management. Highlighting problems, even if they are not your fault will give the impression that you are hard to work with or difficult to manage.

Look for the positive aspects of moving job role both for you and your future employer. Emphasize why you want to move and relate them to the specific company and job. Potential answers include seeking a new challenge, looking for somewhere with training and looking for a role with more opportunities for advancement. Consider how your answer relates not only to you, but how it will benefit your new firm. As an example if you are looking for a role with more possibilities for advancement, you need to emphasize how important work is to you and the effort you are prepared to put in in-order to advance.
