The Front Office Intern supports the reception team with guest arrivals and departures, reservations, telephone enquiries, payment-related assistance, and general guest service. Candidates should be studying hospitality, tourism, or a related subject, have good spoken and written English, a professional appearance, and basic computer skills. Previous hotel experience may be helpful but is not always required. The successful candidate is expected to be welcoming, reliable, organised, flexible with shifts, and comfortable working in a busy, multicultural airport hotel. Strong communication, teamwork, attention to detail, and a genuine interest in delivering Marriott-quality service are important. Knowledge of additional languages and familiarity with hotel systems would be advantageous.

Although the United Arab Emirates is not an island, it offers a highly international lifestyle, especially in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Hospitality, aviation, tourism, retail, events, restaurants, and luxury services provide regular opportunities for graduates, interns, and experienced professionals. UAE workplaces are multicultural, and English is widely used, while Arabic is the official language. Life is modern and convenient, with excellent public transport, beaches, shopping malls, desert activities, and year-round sunshine; summers are extremely hot. Muslim customs should be respected, including appropriate dress in traditional areas and awareness of Ramadan practices. Foreign nationals generally need a valid residence or employment visa, normally arranged by an employer or approved educational sponsor. Internship visa arrangements vary, so candidates should confirm sponsorship, insurance, accommodation, transport, and medical requirements before accepting an offer. Dubai living costs can be high, particularly for housing, so compare the stipend with accommodation and daily expenses before relocating.
