Faraon, Shaira Arale B. Hrm1y2-4 Mr. Benjamin Pagco March2014 CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION A. Background of the Study The responsibilities of entry-level managers in the hospitality industry are continuously changing. Obtaining and keeping a management job in a restaurant or hotel requires that a person have the ability to change. Successful managers have the enthusiasm to respond to the changing needs and challenges of their organization (Woods& King, 2002). Some of these challenges are due to the changes affecting the hospitality industry today, Consequently, the curriculum and the methods used to prepare entry level managers in this field should also be design to fit the demands of today’s industry. According to Nebel and Stearn (1977), hospitality managers should be able to provide effective leadership to employees. Similarly, in the book, titled 10 things employers want you to learn in college: The know-how you need to succeed, Coplin (2003) indicated that employers like to hire potential leaders who are skilled at stimulating people to take rational initiatives. Leadership skills are not the only skills needed by employers. In fact,leadership skills are some of the employability skills...

...through quality education. Job qualification for Hotel industry is essential in finding a competitive work in the Philippines or even in other countries. Due to the rampant growth in hospitality industry, there has been a major concern for the Hotel and Restaurant Management students to be highly competitive or highly qualified in terms of hotel and restaurant preferences and standards. The job market in the hospitality industry is very competitive, employers will always want new graduates who are ready to “jump in” and start working immediately. Equipped with knowledge on the new trends for today’s hospitality industry, in order to be competitive in this market, newly graduates must possess the maximum skills required to perform efficiently and effectively in the hospitality industry. Industry professionals often claim that what educators teach in the classroom is out dated (Kang, Wu, & Gould, 2005). Technology, the workforce, hospitality and tourism products, and customers are constantly changing. As a result, relevant competencies also evolve. Therefore, university faculty and industry professionals must work together to ensure that graduating students can possess the necessary skills to enter the workforce successfully. These present challenges give empetus to the researchers to study, seek and gather information for the preferred job qualifications of today’s hotel industry, gearing towards knowledge on hiring...

...Background of study 1.4 Statement of the problem 1.5 Research hypothesis 1.6 Definition of terms 1.1 Introduction Previous researchers have examined management within the hospitality industry for many reasons, including: examining job satisfaction of general managers (Frye & Mount, 2007), determining factors on a resume that may lead to being contacted for an interview (Countryman & Horton, 2006), and determining the causes of management turnover and what could be done to increase retention (Stalcup & Pearson, 2001; Walsh & Taylor, 2007). In addition, research has been done examining graduates from specific institutions (Walsh & Taylor, 2007) as well as perceptions of current students and what they expect when they graduate (Richardson, 2009). Blomme, Van Rheede, and Tromp (2009) found differences between pre- and post-entry expectations of hospitality management graduates in the hospitality industry. However, no past research has examined differences in hospitality graduates with respect to experiences, importance, and turnover in the hospitality industry. Researchers have found many hospitality graduates either never entered the industry, or left the industry with no intent to return (Blomme et al., 2009; King, McKercher, & Waryszak, 2003; Stalcup & Pearson, 2001; Walsh & Taylor, 2007). In addition, Blomme et al. found significant differences in pre- and post-entry expectations of hospitality graduates. If hospitality graduates are...

...education. Education is the most important mechanism for the empowerment of people for their socio-economic, political, and technological development. The learning environment of higher education institutions must take cognizance of this in structuring their course programs. For the purpose of quality assurance of course programs, higher education institutions can contribute meaningfully by applying the principles of tracer study to create sustainable learning empowerment environment for the continuous professional development of past students. While many higher education institutions provide training to a variety of clients, most forget them as soon as they graduate and leave the institution’s environment with no means to contact them. Employability upon graduation an over the long term is, understandably, the major priority for the vast majority of our University students. Over the past decades or so the University has increasingly offered a wide spectrum of higher education courses that provide students with the necessary tools enabling them to develop their employability skills, to heighten their awareness of these skills and to improve their ability to articulate them. These skills, once acquired, of course need to be honed throughout one’s working life, being put into practice not only in job searching and during interviews but also in personal development planning and in making the most of work experience opportunities. There is no doubt that a student’s lifelong...
