27 January, 2020Nearly 500 interviews between students and hotel chains in favor of their job placement: it is the result of the PDD 2020
7 February, 2020Marugal Distinctive Hotel Management has visited the Hotel-School of Sant Pol de Mar to present to our students the options of internships to their 4 and 5 star hotels located in Spain and France. It is the first of the companies that approach EUHT StPOL to recruit students during this 2019-20 academic year, in addition to the companies that will participate in the Professional Development Days and the hotel groups and chains that annually select students from EUHT StPOL for their establishments.
Marugal Distinctive Hotel Management is a “white label that is hidden behind the identity of each of the hotels we manage,” explains Toni Contreras, director of Human Resources at Marugal. This is how the presentation started today for those students interested in doing an internship at unique hotels that are part of this management company: Hotel CapRocat 5 * GL (Mallorca), Hotel Torralbenc (Menorca), Gecko Hotel & Beach Club (Formentera), Akelarre 5 * with the restaurant of chef Pedro Subijana of 3 Michelin stars (Basque Country), Urso hotel spa 5 * (Madrid), Totem (Madrid), Relais de Chambord (Val de Loire) and Palacio Solecio (Málaga).
Far from the model of a hotel chain, Marugal Distinctive Hotel Management manages 4 and 5 star hotels “unique, with their own identity and linked to the territory and the particularities of the place where they are located,” explains Contreras.
After the presentation of the company and the internship options, the students have met with the human resources managers of Marugal Distinctive Hotel Management for the vacancies in the area of food and beverage operation. It is the first time that Marugal Distinctive Hotel Management visits the Hotel-School of Sant Pol de Mar to recruit students of the Bachelor’s Degree in Hospitality and Tourism Management, the Master in hospitality management, the Master in Culinary Arts and Kitchen Management and the Technical Degree in Gastronomy and Restaurant Service.
Marugal is the first of the companies that this 2019-20 academic year visits EUHT StPOL to meet with students. On February 4th and 5th, during the Professional Development Days 2020, more than ten groups and hotel chains are coming to the Hotel-School to present their vacancies to the students studying their last year and also interview them. Furthermore, apart from these, there will be other hotel and restaurant chains that will regularly visit EUHT StPOL with the aim to facilitate the student’s work placement.
