Eurofirms, boosting hospitality talent in Portugal
The hospitality industry is one of Portugal’s main economic drivers, but the sector faces a growing challenge: the high demand for jobs doesn’t always find qualified professionals. With over 35 years of experience in talent management, at Eurofirms we identified this need and decided to launch an innovative solution: the Basic Skills Program for the Hospitality Industry in Portugal .
Designed for people with no prior experience, the program focuses on what truly makes the difference: attitude . With a practical methodology centered on each person’s potential, participants develop essential skills for entering the industry. Furthermore, the project promotes the inclusion of people of different ages, nationalities, and personal circumstances, reinforcing equal opportunities and the People First ethos that guides our work.
