Aprinda Hotel & Resort Training offers fast track to a Hotel Sales Career

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) August 15, 2009 -- If your looking for a fun, lucrative career, where you can advance quickly, and work in nice surroundings....a hospitality sales career could be just what you are looking for.

The problem I had when I started looking for a job out of college was that everyone wanted prior hotel experience. No one wanted to spend time training me.

I was married and had a baby on the way and did not have time to go back to school to get a certificate or another degree.

Luckily for me one of my fellow Chico Grads told me about a program that Chico State University uses in their hospitality classes. They used a training program from http://www.aprinda.com which trains people on-line in just 15 hours or so.

The aprinda.com course cut out the theory and focused on the things I needed to learn to start a job as a hotel sales manager. After completing the course, I was able to land some interviews and express to the Director of Sales that I was thoroughly trained and ready to start booking groups and events for the hotel.

www.aprinda.com is not the only on-line hospitality certificate program out there. I did also research ecornell.com and Devry University, but found Aprinda to be the more affordable and effective program.

The good news for me is after 4 years with Sheraton and Hilton, I make $95K plus bonus as a Director of Sales. I expect to land another promotion overseeing a few hotels in the next years.

If your looking for a hotel job, there are lots of them. Hotel people move on to other hotels every couple of years, and there are always lots of openings on hotels web sites like hcareers.com, indeed.com, or hospitalityonline.com. Always used search words like hotel sales manager.

Thanks Chico State, my alumni buddy Dan, and Aprinda. I love my career and work in beautiful hotels. My wife and daughter enjoy the travel perks. Hope this helps others.
