Hilton Worldwide’s corporate team visited Watford UTC this week to talk to pupils about careers available in the hospitality industry.
Careers@Hilton Live: Youth in Hospitality events aim to inspire those looking for employment about careers in the hospitality industry, and to support them by providing guidance on the skills to succeed in the workplace and beyond.
Participants have been joining Hilton Worldwide Team Members for events ranging from résumé clinics, to career speed-networking, as well as presentations from Team Members on their career paths.
Steve Ryan, vice president, HR consulting, said: "Young people continue to face challenging employment prospects, so it is more important than ever to make sure they receive information and advice about the options available and the skills and attributes they will need once they embark on their chosen careers.
"We are passionate about raising awareness of the opportunities the hospitality industry offers and we are delighted to be doing this through one of our biggest ever careers events across the globe."
