The San Luis Resort Wraps Up Successful Summer Internship Program

The San Luis Resort Wraps Up a Successful Summer Internship Program

Each year, The San Luis Resort works closely with several colleges that offer Hospitality Leadership programs to offer students internships to explore the hospitality industry.  University partners include The University of Houston Conrad Hilton College of Global Hospitality Leadership, Texas Tech's Hospitality and Retail Management, Stephen F. Austin's Hospitality Management program, and Texas A&M's Department of Hospitality, Hotel Management and Tourism.  

The San Luis Resort Director of Human Resources and Regional Director of Room Operations attend job/internship fairs to speak to students about internship opportunities at The San Luis Resort and then select up to 15 candidates for the summer program. They are then placed in positions that provide them with hands-on experience to apply what they have learned in their studies. Each student is matched with a job in their area of interest or where they will receive the most value. They then work that position until the final two weeks of the program when they then rotate between the other departments to learn the operations of each.  This gives each student the opportunity to see how every department works together to create an optimal guest experience.

Congratulations to all of The San Luis Resort summer 2023 interns:
