CHAPTER 10. TIME-OUT WEEK

This is a transition week. Once registration process and contracts are signed up and taking their course, it’s a good opportunity to dedicate time enough to close the staff recruitement. After considering the amount of CV received, I have done, with the help of the Main Office in Malaga, the very first selection. Now, there are about fifteen applicants selected and next week they have to pass a personal interview, in order to choose the best person for the job. All of them fulfil the requirements relating to degrees and job experience, and the decision is going to be difficult. I think it’s very important, when you have to work selling something directly to people, to have a positive attitude, to be enthusiastic, outgoing, respectful and to be able to smile a lot. This is important in every job, but it’s even more important when you work in a travel agency, because you are selling something expensive wich people can’t touch or see, and the final picture that customers are going to retain is the one they had received from the people who sold them the travel.
