Starwood Hotels & Resorts

North America College Recruiting: Management Training

Starwood offers a Management Training program for graduates that exposes them to the places, people and practices that will help set the foundation for success throughout their careers. Trainees concentrate in rooms, food and beverage, culinary, revenue management, finance, convention services and sales, and rotate through other areas in the hotel to learn from leaders in some of the most successful Starwood properties. The length of training varies from 6 to 18 months depending on discipline. At the completion of the training, each participant is placed into an assistant manager, manager or equivalent position at the same hotel where they trained.

These opportunities are limited to current undergraduates attending school with work authorization in the location of the position (U.S. or Canada).  Experienced, non-student candidates and those without appropriate work authorization are invited to search for global career opportunities.

At Starwood we have high expectations for each associate we hire. The environment we create for our managers includes programs that provide:

  • Training and development in functional areas, leadership skills and rotational exposure
  • Performance-based salary increases and bonuses
  • Career planning to help get you into the next progressive step up
  • Annual assessments of talent, skills to guide development
  • Opportunities for projects, task force assignments in other hotels
