Back to school

Véronique begins to look for intensive training to learn hotel management. In September 98, she takes the path of theschool. "I found an establishment in Vannes where I learned management, balance sheets, purchases ... well, everything I needed to know to run a hotel." At 40, it's hard to go back to school In a field totally unknown to me, it was very schooly and I found myself with young people who often did not understand why I was going in there because of my career. was a big change after Parisian life. "
Thanks to her established connections during her previous work, she finds an internship in La Baule in a big hotel and gets to know the different sectors of the hotel industry. After graduating brilliantly, she was hired for six months as a housekeeper in a beautiful hotel in Dinard, which has 90 rooms. "It was a difficult experience, but I wanted to be aware of that work too, and in ten days I became governess general and I headed 17 people."
At the end of his contract, a fixed position is proposed to Veronique, but she refuses. There, was not his goal. Especially since she discovered the difficulty of the job and the lack of recognition towards the staff. This experience reinforces her idea of ​​acquiring a small structure to establish links with customers. "I wanted a hotel that looks like a family home where exchanges, discussions with customers are possible."
