Ohio State
Few occupational fields offer the opportunity to make a direct difference in the lives of others on a daily basis. Hospitality is one of those professions. I am eager to combine business skills with interpersonal skills, and I believe graduate study at Ohio State will mesh perfectly with my goals.
Hospitality management is diverse field. I have not yet decided the capacity in which I would like to work, but the fact that I have many options is important to me. In school and through internship experience I will be able to explore different aspects of the field and find the right career path. It is exciting to know that there are so many choices within the profession. With many careers, it would be easy to be stuck in a routine, but with hospitality management, that will not be the case. There are many different ways to apply one's skills. I hope one day to be able to help my parents.
I feel confident that a career in hospitality management is right for me. I am very interested in working with others and feel that I am well prepared for the rigors of a graduate business education. It will be challenging and I look forward to the tremendous sense of accomplishment I will feel when I complete my education successfully and enter the profession. As an international student who has been studying in the U.S. For the past three years, I have demonstrated abilities to work well with people from a wide variety of backgrounds. I believe my global perspective will be an asset as a graduate student and as an employee.
Hospitality management requires both creative thinking and a willingness to embark on new paths. I believe that both of these qualities are personal strengths that will enable me to be successful in the graduate program and in the business world. I have worked hard in college; my work ethic as well as my flexibility and adaptability will be important in graduate school and in the profession.
In many ways, the world is changing rapidly. One of the appealing aspects of a career in hospitality management is client need, which will always be with us. People will continue to seek fine dining experiences, stay in hotels, take vacations, and attend events for work or pleasure. I know that I cannot be outsourced or replaced by a computer or robot. Particularly in today's economy, job security is important. An education is an expensive investment and I can be certain that there will always be meaningful work for me to do.
