Five of the students are the recipients of an “MGM Macau Elite Scholarship”, a scholarship program that MGM has extended to UMAC students since 2011 to help nurture local youths and talents.
MGM Macau’s Human Resources Learning and Talent Development team made an introduction of the company before proceeding to the hotel tour. In addition, the five scholarship recipients presented a Thank You Card to MGM China, received by Ms. Chloe Wong, Assistant Director of Learning and Talent Development on behalf of the company. The guided hotel tour began with front-of-house areas which covered the hotel lobby, front desk and guest rooms, followed by back-of house areas including the employee dining restaurant and wardrobe. During the tour, students observed the hotel operation, frontline services as well as internal operations. They paid close attention to the tour and expressed their interest in being a part of the industry.
