Travel and Tourism
Have you ever dreamed of escaping the wet, windy, cold weather of Britain and working abroad? Sorry, silly question – we all have at some time. But if you’re really serious about it, you could do worse than think about a career in the travel industry. You want a career with options? There’s a whole world of them. You could be a travel agent, work in a tour operator’s office, be a tour guide, a holiday rep, or work for an airline.
The work would involve a lot of interaction with customers so if you’re a bright, sunny personality then this is a good choice of career. Don’t think it’ll all be lazing on the beach though. Working in travel can be very demanding with last minute changes, problems to solve and plenty of challenges for you to overcome.
