I learned so much in this program. It helped me improve my skills and discipline myself without my parents. Thank you very much!
I experienced the reality in hospitality industry.
The HRI staff is very accommodating and friendly, and they are easy to approach. You can feel that.
The best experience for me was to have friends of different nationalities, such as Thais, Americans, Mexicans, Columbians, Peruvians, Bralizians, Europeans and Jamaicans. We got together for our parties and went to different towns in Wisconsin.
My employers were so organized in managing their employees. There were no gaps between them and their employees. We were like a big family and Mt. Olympus was our second home.
The program made me who I am today and it molded me as a better person.
The best experience for me was the people from the hotel. They made my stay really epic! I went to a lot of places like Nashville, TN and San Diego, CA. I also learned a lot from their culture.

It was great practice, especially for us students who have no experience in working.
The students are fantastic. When I come to the Philippines, I notice how great [the] hospitality is there. The students do work well in the hospitality there in the United States. I think English levels are better than most. Their personalities -- they're all very bubbly, friendly, and that's exactly what we look for.
My employers are very kind and helpful wherever you need their help, especially if you have a problem. They are very trustworthy.
They are really friendly. We have constant communication among the coordinators of HRI.
I think I can easily get a job when I try to apply here in the Philippines because of my [Work and Travel USA] experience.

The best experience for me was to know the culture and [meet] a lot of people and their personalities and to be so friendly.
On employers: Our employer is very approachable. The owner of Mt. Olympus is very simple. During busy days, they helped us in cleaning, too! Every season they always have an employee's party. It was a great experience to be an intern in the USA.
My best experiences were when the guests appreciate what I did to them…and when I got nominated as [the] 5-star of the quarter and scored 100% in a 5-star audit!
Doing this program has enhanced my ability to speak to different kinds of people with different kinds of attitude. I have developed my decision-making and my interpersonal skills that is very helpful to my degree.
Going to another country was a new experience and in our degree, hospitality management, we are being trained to be hospitable in every way and anywhere.
I know they can help students and I trust them with regard to staying in the United States. They were able to answer all of the questions and help us with simple problems with my papers.
It's the accommodation. It's how you treat me honestly. You guys take care of me very, very well.
I would like to commend and salute HRInternational for the splendid job they are doing not only for the schools, more so for the students. We saw how sincere and genuine they are. It's not just letting the students experience overseas, but is is more of a mission. I see how they really take good care of the children.
My field is also about food and beverage and how to manage a business. We learned actual work and experience and how to deal with the customer.
Hyatt Regency is the best! I learned a lot of things from them and my co-workers. The managers was very nice and fair to us. I also met a lot of friends and I traveled to different places: NYC, Washington, San Francisco, Chicago, Milwaukee, Las Vegas, Los Angeles. I learned about hotel operations and management, and mostly, I had a lot of experiences that can help me with my future career.
