3 Myths Aspiring Applicants Must End When Entering in the Event Management Industry
Monday, March 30, 2015
If you are thinking that being an event management
professional is all about parties, rubbing elbows with VIPs and getting the
best seats in the actual event you are wrong.
Event Management Industry is a serious industry and great
events are a product of hard work and sleepless nights.
At the same time, remember as an event management
professional, you are part of the team that ensures a great event, and not one
of the guests that will experience its greatness .
2 . Event
Management are Corporate Events, Concerts and Shows
There are a lot of different types of events. The following
are the types of events that companies use for promoting their brands. These are
good places for passionate and qualified aspiring professionals.
The other events are trade shows, conferences, trade
mission, Buyer to Buyer (B2B) meetings, and team buildings to name a few.
If you think that an Event Management Company is composed of
Production or Operation people you are wrong!
An event management company operates like other companies.
It has the production department, the accounting department, HR department,
sales and marketing department and other departments depending on the size and
need of an event management company.
Most of the times, applicants in our company think that they
will all end-up in the production or operation department. Those that did not specify their career goal
while applying end-up surprised and frustrated when they are assigned to other
departments.
Again, you can be part of an event management company, and
yet not be a part of events your company is implementing.
