“I was warmly welcomed to a vibrant university and a hotel that is striving for excellence. From the beginning on, I was included in the team, decision-making processes and given responsibilities to grow and learn.
From a kind and warm welcome, responsibilities from the beginning on, busy football weekends to critical, enthusiastic exchange of practices and knowledge – and it’s only been two months yet.”
