According to Boella (2000), the hospitality sector is considered one of the world's leading sectors and contributes almost over 10% of the world's GDP. this significant increase in the hospitality sector is the result of the vital growth processes undertaken in previous years. Additionally, industrial organizations that are stepping up profoundly in the global market have largely started to face the challenges of managing and selecting the highly multicultural workforce. Therefore, the hospitality sector is said to include all commercial activities carried out with the aim of offering accommodation, catering and beverage services. This includes restaurants, hotels, and contracted catering and hospitality services. It should be noted that the fact that different people from different regions and cultures are joining the hospitality industry, there is a strong demand for a new strategy in the selection process. Therefore the use of efficient and ethnically sensitive selection methods is more vital than ever. This totally becomes a key aspect of success for hospitality organizations during their internationalization activities and a very vital issue for intellectuals and professionals. The employment landscape within the sector, particularly in relation to development and training, has not changed significantly due to the current global economic turmoil. Furthermore, despite the diversity, fragmentation and complexity of the sector, it was therefore kept in mind that training, education and professional training are key identities significant for the efficient functioning of this sector. Again due to the current growth of the service sector, teaching and guidance is found in......middle of paper......t which is mainly offered by the hospitality sector. Therefore the hospitality sector should be very focused on implementing and developing a more strategic and attractive approach with the aim of improving its image fundamentally in terms of career development, roles and salaries, which is the linchpin to ensuring an army of workers competent for the sector.
