MGM China is inviting young, career university graduates with Macau IDs to apply for the 2015 Management Associate Program (MAP). Successful candidates, referred to as ‘Mappers’, are offered the opportunity to participate in a 16-month career development program in Las Vegas and Macau. Upon successful completion of the Program, candidates will be considered for a supervisory position or above at a MGM China property.
“We are committed to developing and nurturing young talent for the hospitality industry,” said Mr. Grant Bowie, Chief Executive Officer and Executive Director of MGM China Holdings Limited. “These bright individuals are in for an adventurous career as MGM China continues to expand and grow.”
The ‘Mappers’ will gain international exposure, receive support and advice from senior leaders while engaging in a wide range of projects.
The MAP was established in 1989 in Las Vegas by MGM Resorts International, and since last year, MGM China began offering a tailor-made version for Macau graduates with a Macau ID, as part of the company’s commitment to nurturing and developing local talent.
The 2015/2016 class is due to begin July this year. Successful participants will spend 11 months in Las Vegas and 5 months in Macau.
Interested graduates are welcome to apply for opportunities in the Front Office, Food & Beverage, Housekeeping, Culinary and Gaming Marketing.
Sands China and Macau productivity and technology transfer center hold uniform design competition
Sands China Ltd. and the Macau Productivity and Technology Transfer Center (CPTTM) have come together to hold the Sands China Sports Uniform Design Competition in support of the local fashion and creative industries. After judging and deliberation by industry professionals and Sands China executives, the winners were finally chosen last week and will be announced at a prize presentation ceremony March 17 at The Venetian Macao.
The competition is aimed at up-and-coming fashion designers and fashion design students, with the goal of creating designs for nine different sports and activities that Sands China team members participate in: football, basketball, table tennis, running, badminton, bowling, dragon boat racing, cheerleading, and the Walk for a Million event. Based on four criteria – creativity and originality, practicality and wearability, compatibility with Sands China’s corporate image, and overall aesthetic appeal – the judges were tasked with picking just one overall winner from among the entries.
With one winner and five merit awards being handed out, all awardees will receive a cash prize and a certificate. A total of 13 designs across the nine sports and event categories will be adopted by Sands China and used throughout 2015, providing a platform for the winner to showcase their talents to the public.
