Туризм относится к тем сферам деятельности, где соотношение клиентов и обслуживающего персонала очень высоко Диапазон профессий, нужных в индустрии туризма, тоже очень велик. Однако, основной чертой всех, кто работает в сфере туризма, является постоянное общение с людьми, со всеми его положительными и отрицательными аспектами. Поэтому тот, кто хочет работать в сфере туризма, должен обладать такими качествами, как терпение, общительность, доброжелательность, терпимость, выносливость и многими другими. Во многих профессиях, связанных с туризмом, необходимо знание иностранных языков. Уровень владения иностранными языками может варьироваться в зависимости от профессии и местонахождения работы, но то, что языковые навыки являются неотъемлемой частью работы в туризме, не вызывает сомнений. В туризме работает много женщин, которые приобрели необходимый опыт, начиная работать в качестве агентов туристических фирм.
