Pan Pacific Hotel Seattle

Sales & Catering Coordinator

May - August 2019 • Seattle, WA

What I liked

This internship gave me an overview of hotel sales and catering. I got to experience the sales process hands-on and was involved in a variety of other activities such as attending daily meetings, accompanying managers on sales calls, and helping with events on the floor.

What I wish was different

Advice

Ask as many questions as you can and take every opportunity to involve yourself! Offer to help with special projects or set up meetings with managers whose role you want to learn more about. They will teach you so much!

Rotational Summer Intern

June - August 2019 • Seattle, WA

What I liked

The people! My immediate coworkers were fabulous and I learned so much from their experiences. I loved rotating through various roles as I feel like I have a well-rounded idea for how a hotel is run now.

What I wish was different

I wish I could have spent more time in the roles I liked and less in the ones I didn’t.. but at least I wasn’t doing coffee runs all summer

Advice

Even if the position you are in isn’t your first choice, there is always something you can learn from it that will help get you to your preferred position and title. A positive attitude will lead to positive change.
