Is tourism management good?

I am a senior graduate from Hechi College. This major is fine so far. My cousin studied this major, but now she is working and planning to take the public examination because she said this Professional employment really tests one's comprehensive abilities and is very tempering.

Tourism management and service education majors can also choose to work in travel agencies and hotels in the future. For travel agencies, they are mainly tour guides. They can also do some training-related work in travel agencies. The basic salary of tour guides is very low 3000-5000. The main source of income comes from group shopping (extra income). To be a tour guide, you must first have a mentality that can withstand pressure, followed by eloquence, and also require organizational and coordination abilities.

Compared with teachers and tour guides, hotel work is harder, because when you first go to the hotel, you must start as a waiter. The work is very heavy and tiring, but since most of the hotel employees are middle-aged and middle-aged people, If you are a vocational, higher vocational or junior college student, then as an undergraduate you will have a greater chance of promotion, and it will be faster, but it will take 1-2 years (if it is fast), if it is slow, it will take 2 years +, or even longer.

Here I still recommend students in tourism management to get involved in the destination, because all elements are fundamentally centered around the destination. For example, if a Fantawild is built in a city, then the Fantawild is a destination. It is surrounded by various hotels, restaurants, neighborhoods, etc. New and old channels such as Tongcheng, Ctrip, and travel agencies also generate traffic around the destination. , airplanes, high-speed trains, and buses are also transporting passenger flow around the destination, and cultural and tourism-related media are also reporting around the destination to attract traffic.

Because the development of a destination is a systematic project, it is a complex system from project establishment, planning and design, development and construction, opening and operation, iterative upgrades, etc. If you are lucky enough to participate in a project throughout the entire process, then You will definitely become an expert in the cultural travel industry.

So this is a great test of one’s will and perseverance. If you are a student who deeply loves this major, be prepared for a hard life, but the more you work, the more you will gain, as long as you are willing to endure hardships and stand hard work. , the salary will not be low.
