Intro

Whether you are looking to advance your career in the travel industry, about to graduate and looking for a career to break into, or are looking for a mid-career change, this post is for you.

The pandemic was a tough time for the travel industry and similar industries. While the travel industry is a 24/7 industry, there are tremendous benefits about working in tour and travel, that I highlight below.

This post primarily focuses on the travel industry as that is the industry I have spent most of my career in, with that said, a lot of the tips I provide are beneficial across most industries.

Conclusion

I will thank and curse the hospitality industry for my attention to detail.  It is a redeeming business quality, however; I will not be able to stay in a hotel without overanalyzing.  I will also thank hotels for providing me with my work ethic, extensive growth opportunities, and lasting connections.
