Question
After obtaining a b.s. in HRM, and also having 4 yrs experience in the hospitality industry, how much can i expect to earn annually in a management type position for a full service, boutique hotel?
Salaries range tremendously depending on the city, location, size of hotel, and managment company. Depending on which department you obtained the 4 years of experience makes a big difference as well.
Finally, depending on how you interview and how badly the hotel company wants you will make a difference as well. Range could be from 40-85K or more. The good news is, you have lots of potential. But there is no set salary.
If you want some information on hotel sales and catering on-line courses/ Entry level salaries, negotiating. Hotel sales positions typically pay the best and can advance to the well paid General Manager Positions. There are some free online courses at www.aprinda.com
