Cairo, Egypt, 10 July 2016 – Ramses Hilton has announced the launch of its School of Banqueting, in collabouration with Egypt’s most prominent hospitality schools; Al Orman Hotel School & Talaat Harb Hotel School. The aim of this educational & development programme is to enhance the knowledge and skills of potential banqueting team members. The hotel identified ten promising candidates – who are young, energetic, well groomed, and also enthusiastic about the hospitality industry with a positive attitude and willingness to learn – to join the first phase of the programme and plans to give the opportunity to five new candidates each month.
Launched in May 2016, as part of Hilton Worldwide’s global Careers@Hilton Live initiative, the programme gives candidates a unique training opportunity and prepares them for a successful career in the hospitality industry. The programme has four stages of training based on the number of days each trainee spends. Upon completion of the four stages, the student will be certified by Ramses Hilton and will benefit from a top priority hiring opportunity to permanently join the Hilton Family.

Through this ambitious programme, we aim to offer training to 30 students by the end of 2016. As a leader in the hospitality field, we are passionate about exceeding guest expectations every time they visit us, which could never be achieved without the tireless efforts of our great team members”, she added.
