Hello Everyone.
My name is Giulia, I am 29 years old and I am Italian.
I have a bachelor degree in Interpreting and translation that allowed me to learn well Spanish and English and to study 9 months in Uk with the Erasmus programme.
Then I did my "laurea magistrale" in Italy in Management and Promotion of Culture and Tourism. I then did a compulsory internship in a luxury hotel as a personal assistant to the GM.
Later I did a master programm called "5 stars hotel management" that ended in 2013. I then did a internship as room division manager assistant in a 5 stars resort in Sardinia.
Since 2014 I have been working in the hotel sector with Starwood:
I have a seasonal summer job in a luxury hotel in Sardinia where I work as reservation agent and assistant to the front office manager. During winter 2014 I worked in Cork, Ireland as a sales agent for the same company in the headquarter.
During winter 2015 I worked in Cork as a reservation agent maternity cover in a hotel based in the airport.
My long term goal would be to have a management job in the conference and incentive travel department, but now I was thinking of doing an MBA since I feel that I could be a good manager in the future but I lack of managerial knowledge and skills that will allow me to grow properly.
I would also like to do a general MBA in order to broaden my chances since it is not easy to climb the career ladder in the tourism field.
I would prefer to study in Uk.
Could you give me any opinion about my plan and suggestion about what would be the best choice in terms of schools for me?
Thanks a lot.
Giuliana
