Recently, Prof. Amy Siu Ian SO, Assistant Dean (International and External Relations), Director of the Centre for Tourism and Integrated Resort Studies (CTIRS) and Associate Professor of the Department of Integrated Resort and Tourism Management (DRTM), on behalf of the Department, invited a number of large corporations in the leisure, entertainment and hospitality industries to conduct several unique internship talks for the students who are going to participate in the internship program.

The main purpose of the internship talks was to help students better understand internship opportunities and to provide a platform for companies to showcase their strengths and attract talent. Dozens of companies from all over China introduced their corporate culture, business scope, as well as the job content and requirements of internships through online and offline presentations, laying a solid foundation for student’s future job search. These include Macao-based enterprises Artyen Grand Lapa Macau, Crowne Plaza Macau, Galaxy Entertainment Group, Sands China Ltd, SJM Resorts Limited, Wynn Resorts (Macau) S.A., as well as Mainland China-based enterprises Amanfayun, Four Seasons Guangzhou and Zhuhai Chimelong Investment and Development Company Limited.

In order to help students better integrate into the internship environment and grow up in practice, representatives from different companies also shared their experiences in the workplace and provided professional guidance and suggestions related to interviews. The sharing of these experiences was not only a useful guide for the students to find a internship but also an excellent opportunity to get in close contact with people in the industry.
