"What are the career prospects in Tourism and Travel Management? Is it stable? What about growth opportunities?" These common concerns among students and parents find their clearest answers not in promotional slogans, but in the real-world success stories of alumni. The career path of Nguyễn Thị Mai Hương, a K14 Tourism and Travel Management graduate from Kien Giang College (KGC), perfectly illustrates these possibilities.
From a Solid Academic Foundation to Professional Resilience
Throughout her time at KGC, Hương stood out for her proactive attitude, dynamism, and deep passion for her major. Graduating with distinction, she excelled not only in acquiring specialized knowledge but also in honing vital soft skills, including communication, problem-solving, and a professional work ethic—all indispensable traits in today's modern tourism industry.

Upon graduation, Hương spent two years as a tour guide at Vina Phu Quoc Travel, where she gained hands-on experience, adapted to professional corporate environments, and mastered tour operations. Stepping out of her comfort zone, she later transitioned into freelance tour guiding to broaden her professional network and assert her capabilities in the industry.
