Graduate Opportunities

It is often difficult to obtain your first position after leaving College and University when you are keen to kick start your career.

Most employers are looking for experience when they recruit for their Event, Hospitality, Banqueting and F&B positions. The question is how do you find it?

Well, the first step is to take a starter job which introduces you to work in the choice of industry you are contemplating. This role often does not need a great deal of experience, but you gain this as you go along. Similarly some employers will promote from a starter role so you succeed that way.

Another way is to look for a training scheme whereby you work for a Venue, Hotel, Catering and/or Event Company in various positions learning the ropes for promotion to your chosen field of expertise.

Alternatively you can seek work overseas as an Intern gaining valuable experience at the same time as enhancing the experience on your CV.

It is a good idea to enrol with an Agency that provides staff to the Event Companies and Hotels as you can gain valuable experience working in these environments.

If you speak to us we can advise the best way forward. Talk to you of the Training schemes on offer as well as the look for sarter positions. We run an Intern scheme in Florida which lasts for one year. A J1 visa is provided and the candidate gets to see five star service as well as American life.

Contact Andrew who can advise on the above and possibly help With Work experience placements as well.
