Secret #1 – Training and Experience Matters

Secret #2 – Be Customer Focused

The travel industry is very competitive. It seems like everyone wants to workas a flight attendant, cruise professional, or travel agent! This means that only qualified applicants will be considered. To be qualified, you either need years of experience- or to graduate with a Travel and Customer Relations Certificate from The Travel Academy. Since 1984, TTA has successfully trained people to meet employers’ demanding standards.

Travel employers value customer service as one of their top requirements. Specific training and experience in customer service in the travel industry is critical to landing a job. Customer service is different in each industry. Delivery, standards of service, and dealing with customers are all different in the travel world. TTA teaches the high-quality customer service that this industry demands!

Secret #3 – Speak the “Language” of Travel

TTA teaches the “language” of travel. This knowledge will not only help you interview with top employers, it will help you ace the interview as well. With so many people seeking these positions, employers are attracted to applicants who already know and use industry terminology.

Secret #4 – Believe in Yourself

One of the important things that TTA does is developing the winner within you. Most of us spend our childhood being told “No!” and “You can’t do that!”. Many years of negative comments can decrease self-confidence. Travel employers are quick to identify (and dismiss!) those who lack confidence. After attending TTA, your confidence will match your skills!

Secret #5 – Competence

Competence comes from focused practice and repetition. Each time you successfully complete a task, you get a little bit better. Employers look for competence in your interview skills, the answers you give, and the impression you leave. TTA will give you the competence that will make you stand out to employers.

Secret #6 – Persistence & Ability to Travel

Employers are quick to identify applicants who give up. Those who give up are put in the “no” stack. Spending several short weeks at TTA proves that you are persistent. It also demonstrates an ability to live the life of a travel professional.

Secret #7 – Be Yourself & Smile!

Fake smiles are easily identified. Recruiters look at thousands of candidates and know the difference between a genuine smile and an “interview smile.” The Travel Academy teaches the value of being genuine and showing the wonderful person inside to employers.
