VA-1 Governor’s Tourism Summit 2022
VA-1 Student Session – Monday, November 14 @ 9:00AM-11:00AM
Dear VADMO Members,
This year, VA-1 is looking for 10 DMOs who would like to meet with the future of hospitality leaders in the Future Looks Bright session!
During the Student Session on Monday, November 14, aspiring hospitality professionals from Virginia universities are being encouraged to bring their resumés and their ideas to meet with YOU!
We are looking for 10 DMOs that have internship opportunities or job openings where students can meet with potential employers and discuss their future in tourism. Partners are encouraged to decorate their tables to show off their destinations and attract top-level talent!
Additionally, we will have 2 advice tables set up to review the student’s resumés and provide them with invaluable guidance on why they should pursue a career in hospitality and tourism!
Interested? Reach out to Jacob Bower (jbower@virginia.org) at Virginia Tourism to reserve your spot!
