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
