Tourism advertisement

The northern
Tourism advertisement
Haiti tourism management is advertising in the United States.  They are also advertising for jobs throughout the country, and conduct interviews in earnest.  Criteria are based on previous tourism experiences or skills in customer service, English, Spanish and French.  Employment for menial positions is reserved for those who are willing to showcase their talents.

Even though it is a project for the northern part of Haiti, the tourism board is advertising in major television and radio stations in the country.  The reason for this is that they are trying to attract the best applicants for the jobs.

Tourism advertisements in US cities

To lure back tourists as in the 70s, the board of directors is about to undertake a costly advertising venture in major US cities.  This will be something worth doing if it is affordable.  I, personally, doubt that the board can afford this expensive endeavor. It would benefit the northern Haiti tourism project, but at the same time, it will drain their resources.

Employees vested interests in the tourism project

The best resources for this project, I was told, are the people who will be hired for various positions.  Their key requirements are commitment, experiences and having a vested interest in making this tourism project a role model for the rest of the country and elsewhere.

Applicants having degrees in business, hospitality and customer service are being given priority in the hiring process.  One board member told me that experienced people who work in the tourism anywhere are in great demand.  The goal is to make this tourism project something that works and whose success other countries could emulate.
