She is a housekeeper with one of the big London hotels. Then at school I was good at languages. I speak French and German. So hotel reception seemed like a good career.I: And did you go through training as a hotel receptionist?S: Yes. After I left school I went to Hotel College and did a Hotel Reception course. The Hotel Reception Certificate is useful, career-wise.I: And where did you start work?S: My first job was as trainee receptionist in the Ibex Hotel in Brighton.I: I see, and then you got your present job?S: No. Before I got my present job as Senior Receptionist I spent two years at the Paris Grand Ibex Hotel. I did various Front Office jobs there, so it was useful experience. Then I got my present job with Birmingham Ibex.`I: So you’ve been six years with Ibex now… What about the future? How do you see your career developing?S: Obviously I’d be hoping for a higher managerial post, perhaps Assistant Manager, not necessarily with Ibex… but we’ll have to wait and see. In fact, career planning is not an easy subject to talk about. There are lots of factors involved like opportunities, promotion policy, performance review, etc.。
