The diverse and dynamic hospitality and tourism industry provides challenging and exciting career opportunities for people with a wide variety of interests. US Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts that by the year 2010, the industry will employ 14.8 million people. Of these, 18-20% or roughly 2.9 million people will be employed in managerial, professional or sales and marketing position.
