The beautiful beaches and blazing sunshine attract people from all over the world, particularly during the winter. The most amazing Miami hospitality jobs can be found in Miami Beach, Aventura and Sunny Isles venues. You can enter the hospitality sector in many different ways. One of the easiest ways is to begin as a front desk clerk, bellman, security guard or chef. Benefits of Working in the Hospitality Sector in Miami Money If you can demonstrate the required soft skills, you can easily get a job in a Miami restaurant, hotel, an on-call event, café, or any other hospitality-related business. Out of the 15 million hospitality jobs in the US, Miami hosts one of the most well-paid hospitality sectors. If you manage to become a Sommelier, you can easily earn up to $54,000 a year and up to $100,000 if you advance to the ranks of Advanced or Master. Regional Chefs have an average salary of $122,000, so if you’re gifted with outstanding cooking ability, you can earn stacks upon stacks of money. If you don’t feel you are ready to assume these roles, try to look for waiter positions or pool servers. Don’t underestimate the job as you can make tons of money from regular tips. Growth Work in the hospitality sector doesn’t just mean a lot of money; it also provides ample opportunities for growth. Whether personal or professional, it doesn’t matter. You can always work your way up in a hotel or a restaurant (e.g., going from a waiter to a general manager). Apart from that, you’ll learn new skills that will come in handy if you want to leave in search of pastures new. Meet Celebrities Miami is known to possess plenty of hotels where you can spot celebrities. The best places where you are most likely to meet stars include La Côte, Shore Club, Seaspice, Prime 112, Island Gardens, Art Basel, and the South Beach Wine and Food Festival. If you can manage to find and occupy vacancies in any of these places, you’ll probably be meeting a celebrity every day. In addition, Faena, Miami Beach’s most opulent new addition, is an incredible magnet for celebrities. Another popular spot that appeals to celebrities is the Wall Lounge, Miami’s nightlife staple. During the high season, the lounge gets so crowded with celebrities that you’ll feel like you’ve been invited to an exclusive after-party. If this is what you want, then Miami is the place to be!
How to Improve Your Job Search Results
RMG Staffing has been in the hospitality and staffing industry for more than a decade. With a wonderful and dedicated team, we have and will continue to provide exceptional service to our clients. In addition to making our clients feel like rock stars, RMG Staffing is blessed to be in a position where we can dramatically improve the careers of those who want to excel in South Florida’s hospitality industry. We also try to give excellent career advice to every prospective employee that walks through our doors. One of the many pieces of advice we offer is ways to improve one’s job search. Here are four key ways to jump-starting your career in the right path. 1. Focus on the High-Return Job Efforts Job boards have less than a 5% effectiveness rate while networking has more than a 50% effectiveness rate. Start by selecting 10 to 30 companies where you would love to work. Do a company search on LinkedIn and identify the decision makers and their staff. Follow the company and people on LinkedIn and Facebook, join their groups and conversations, and comment on their blogs. 2. Review Your Online Presence Studies show that 88% of employers Google prospective employees’ names so make sure you have a completed LinkedIn profile. Check your various social media presences and be careful of the content you post. Take down or change any comments that reflect poorly on you. 3. Optimize Your LinkedIn Profile Would you show up if a recruiter was searching through LinkedIn to find people for the position you are seeking? Try it and if you are not on the first or second page, go back to your profile and add keywords to increase your ranking. A simple trick is to look at the profiles of the people who rank well and follow their examples. 4. Create Measurable Goals Stay disciplined. Set goals. For example, “I will make 15 networking calls and have two weekly meetings.” Make sure you are focusing on high-impact efforts like networking versus job board submissions. Keep a record of your efforts so if an employer calls, you can quickly determine when and how they were contacted.
PAMM “Art of the Party” by Valentino
If there’s one thing Miami does well, it’s galas… and on April 1st, the Magic City threw the see-and-be-seen gala of the year. Hosted by the Pérez Art Museum Miami (PAMM), this event, Art of the Party presented by Valentino, is the museum’s largest fundraiser. For more information about RMG Staffing or to hire us for your next event in Miami, contact us! It makes sense when you find out why—not only did the event pay homage to contemporary artist Lorna Simpson (a woman whose work has been vitally important to the evolution of PAMM for the last twenty years), but it featured an exclusive Chef’s Table seated dinner, a Supper Club Lounge and the “Remix” after-party (all three of which were conceptualized by Miami favorite Lee Brian Schrager); attracted 1,000 of the art world’s most exemplary philanthropists and connoisseurs; and included culinary collaborations by two of the greats, STARR Catering Group and Chef Michael Schwartz. If that weren’t enough, the second-floor exhibits turned into a chic interactive art studio with live music by DJ Phaxas, a virtual reality painting activation, and portrait artists. When the after-party kicked off, so did the sweets: tables piled high with local treats from Azucar Ice Cream Company, Fireman Derek’s Bake Shop, Madruga Bakery, MdoughW, and Michael’s Genuine® Food & Drink. And with all that, everyone was in attendance: from Usher, Princess Firyal of Jordan, and Miami Heat player Justise Winslow, to singer Justine Skye, Ana Navarro, and the Mayor of Miami-Dade County, Carlos A. Giménez. It was by far the most successful installment of this annual event, with the most guests recorded in attendance, and raised $1.1M for PAMM’s robust education program, which just happens to be the largest outside the Miami-Dade County school system. As proud partners of Starr Catering Group, we here at RMG Staffing take pride in helping facilitate A-list South Florida events like these. With nearly a decade of experience staffing Miami’s most sought-after parties, PAMM’s Art of the Party presented by Valentino gave us yet another opportunity to do what we do best: make it run smoothly. From setting up and breaking down the venue, serving guests and working the bar, to serving food, playing host or hostess, directing guests to their appropriate table, and above all, making sure VIPs and celebrities feel comfortable and welcoming, we were there on hand to provide anything the organizers (or the guests!) needed. And like always at RMG… we were happy to help. This event took place on Saturday, April 1st, at 6:30 p.m. Pérez Art Museum Miami (PAMM) is located at 1103 Biscayne Boulevard, right on Biscayne Bay.
