Internship 101: How We Place Students in 5-Star Hotels

Inside Dr. Narayana Degree College of Hotel Management’s Placement Process

If you’re planning to join a hotel management course, you’ve probably wondered:
“Will I actually get to work in a 5-star hotel?”
At Dr. Narayana Degree College of Hotel Management, the answer is a clear and confident YES—and we’re going to tell you exactly how it happens.

This blog will walk you through our internship placement process, step by step, and why our students get real-world exposure in premium hotels like Taj, Novotel, Radisson, Marriott, and ITC.

🎓 First Things First: Why Is an Internship Important?

In hotel management, classroom learning is important, but what truly shapes you is hands-on experience.
That’s where internships come in. It’s your chance to:

• Work in real hotel environments
• Learn how professional kitchens, receptions, and guest relations work
• Build a resume that stands out
• Get a foot in the door for your first job!

🛠️ Step-by-Step: Our 5-Star Internship Process

✅ Step 1: Preparing You Before You Even Step Out

Before you go to any hotel, we make sure you’re trained and confident.

We conduct:

• Mock interviews
• Soft skill training
• Uniform grooming sessions
• English speaking support (especially for Telugu medium students)

By the time hotel recruiters come in, our students are already job-ready.

📝 Step 2: Matching the Right Student with the Right Hotel

We don’t just push students anywhere. We assess:

• Your strengths (kitchen, front office, housekeeping, F&B)
• Your location preference
• Hotel requirements

We then curate internship opportunities at 3-star, 4-star, and 5-star properties across India (and sometimes abroad).

Some of our placement partners include:

Hotel Chain	Location Examples
Taj Group	Hyderabad, Bangalore
Marriott Hotels	Chennai, Delhi
Novotel	Vizag, Goa
ITC Hotels	Mumbai, Kolkata
Radisson Blu	Pune, Kochi

🤝 Step 3: Personal Support Throughout the Internship

Once you’re selected, we don’t just say goodbye. You’ll get:

• A dedicated internship coordinator
• Weekly check-ins to solve issues
• Help with travel, accommodation, and orientation

This means you’re always backed by your college, even while working in a big city hotel.

🎖️ Step 4: Internship to Full-Time Offer (Yes, It Happens!)

Did you know?
40–60% of our students are offered jobs where they intern. That’s because:

• You’re trained to perform professionally from Day 1
• You stand out from the crowd (thanks to Dr. Narayana’s prep)
• Hotels prefer hiring interns they’ve already seen in action

🗣️ Real Student Stories
