Ms Carmen Wong - Executive Housekeeper of Express by Holiday Inn Hotel

 

I am a graduate of a nine-week Housekeeping course at The Hotel Industry Training Centre, which is now the Hospitality Industry Training and Development Centre (HITDC), and I see the course that I did as a key to my success in the industry.

After graduation, I worked as Room Attendant at the Holiday Inn Golden Mile Hong Kong Hotel where I applied all the skills and knowledge that I had learnt on my training course.

I am a hard working person and always willing to learn from others. This attitude has assisted me to rise through the ranks from a Room attendant to senior position then eventually to Assistant Housekeeper.
In 2005 I was promoted, and moved to the Express by Holiday Inn at Causeway Bay, and took up the position of Executive Housekeeper, responsible for the management of the Housekeeping Department.

When I think about the last 10 years, I am certain that I made the right decision in joining the hospitality industry and in particular, taking the training course at the Hospitality Industry Training and Development Centre (now HITDC). I owe a special thank you to the centre and the instructors for giving me the chance to learn from them. This has helped to get where I am today and to reach my personal career goal.

I would like to take this opportunity to encourage all trainees: to grasp every chance to learn, be determined and confident. I am sure you will have a bright future.
