A unique concept and first-ever initiative by any hotel management institution in India, The IIHM Young Chef India Schools set off seven years ago as a platform for young, aspiring and talented chefs from among the upcoming generation of school students. It is a unique opportunity for high school students across India to get a glimpse of the culinary world and also to display their talent and skills to gain global recognition. Through eight seasons, the competition aims to bring forth budding young culinary talent from across the country on a single platform.
“Hospitality is an amazing business which is like a town with different departments, like engineering, finance, cooking, serving, front office and so on. There are so many different avenues that one can take. Around the world there is a huge demand for hospitality students in various fields. Hospitality is glamorous, but it’s also hard work. You have to be dedicate and passionate about it.”
“Today the world revolves around the 3 T’s – Telecommunication, Technology and Tourism. A boom in tourism industry around the world, has brought about a boom in the hospitality industry. The industry has evolved and today, apart from the core sectors like Front desk, Food and Beverage or Housekeeping, other sectors like Sales and Marketing, HR and Technology are also important.”
“Hospitality has immense future & this is the best time to cash in bcz there is a dearth of good people & women in this industry.On an average,only 10% to 11% professionals are women in the hotel industry.I've made the effort to have 28% women working at my hotel.But I encourage more women to join this industry.If they work with patience & perseverance for some years,they will have a beautiful career ahead.“
“The Hotel industry taught me discipline,time management & how to lead frm the front.Hotel Management teaches you to become an allrounder.In any hospital there's clinical part & hospitality part that includes Food & Beverage, Housekeeping,FrontOffice,like a 5-StarHotel.So it's not only about the MedicalTreatment,but also about value added services.”
“Primarily, one needs to be a people’s person. The opportunities in this industry are huge with over 900 registered hotels in the country and the tourism and travel industry booming. Today, hospitality as a profession has come a long way. “
