hey i have an interview 2
they take 45 people each year
u have 2 be drssed formally, like in pants, shirt
you not only have 2 pass the interview but also get the required uai to get into the course.

good luck

Nah you don't have to dress formally, despite what they say. Well thatz what happened last yr anyway.

then what would you wear cause i am a little confussed

 

[LMF^^]

There were ppl who dressed casually in the interview, and they got in the course. I wore a suit on a fuckin hot day and the interviewer just wore a shirt, and he said formal dress aren't all that necessary. I can't guarantee that they have the same standardz this yr, if you wanna make sure then give em a call or somethin.

Thanks for that;
hey are u doin the course now?
whats it like, like what do you study and whats the work experiance like?

 

[LMF^^]

The course iz changin format from next yr on, so it'll kinda be diff to what I get on the first yr. College part will only take 6 monthz instead of a yr, and you study the 6 core commerce subjectz like all other com dudez. Work experience don't start til 2nd yr so I can't tell you how itz like, but basically itz just that you have to find a job relatin to the industriez and go from there.

I waz a bit disappointed wit the hospitality part, I expected a lot mo thingz about food & bev and instead we studied shit like business communication and shit like that, waste of my money. Best bit about it iz WineFest, unless you got picked in a really shit group, that can only come down to bad luck.

l just got back from the interview.. it wasnt as bad as expected.. he was really impressed with my resume and said "thats what we are looking for" but l dunno we find out on 13th decemeber..
but it kind of sux that it is then based on uai..
like l also have done certificate 2 in tourism and events management would that advantage me? can they still accept you if you dun make the cutt off

the cut off for b com(mkt, tourism, hop) is usually lower than normal B com.. you'll be fine.

I've always been confused about what i wanted to do in uni and just recently i've been taking an interest in hospitality. It's kind of late.. but is it possible to get into this course without the interview? or is there any other alternative uni in sydney that i can go to without having to do an interview? I've looked at UTS, but that requires some sort of tourism course in Tafe. any ideas?

 

[LMF^^]

Well you must have the UAC guide right.

From what I remember UTS and UNSW are the only uniz in Syd that offer coursez that have somethin to do wit hospitality. You can alwayz try puttin the course in yo preferencez and see if you get an offer.
