I’m Heather, an alumni of the Hospitality & Real Estate Programme in CUHK School of Hotel & Tourism Management.
Over two summers, I had had the chance to dive deep into the field of hospitality and tourism, only to confirm my passion and interests further.
In my 6-months internship with the Hong Kong Tourism Board (HKTB), I worked in the Business Development department. Most of my seniors were hospitality experts who had involved themselves in the industry for decades, able to give very clear objectives and instructions for each task. Therefore when I work, I did not have to always raise questions (like an annoying newbie), and can focus on delivering very good work.
At that time, working from home is the new norm and SHTM taught me the most important trait in order to stand out – proactivity. Whenever you are ready and available, show up and offer your help instead of hiding behind laptop screens! Let your passion and enthusiasm be recognised:)
