Your second written assignment will be an essay, written in APA format (If you are unsure of the proper paper format, refer to the template provided in the classroom or the resources in our online library). Be sure that you have reviewed the feedback you received from your first written assignment. Your essay should be no more than 3 pages of written content, along with a properly formatted title page and reference page. An abstract should not be included. The content for your essay is described below.

Either using the ideal role you identified for yourself in the week two assignment or choosing another (within hospitality), describe and explain the necessary skills and knowledge required or would be preferred for advancement in the field, from an entry level position to management (preferably to general manager, vice president, or director level). The writing should be outlined by job progression and you can refer to specific job postings from company or third party job sites, like hcareers.com for example.

Furthering your self-assessment from week two, you will also identify your steps to advancing within the chosen job role.
