Placements
a) In the Government sector

1)Directorates & tourism departments:
Departments of Tourism operate at the State and Central level. These departments formulate policy, select and develop tourist destinations, plan travel facilities, publicise the destinations and provide relevant information to tourists. The State Directorates are responsible for publicising and promoting travel within their state. Information Assistants answer the queries of tourists and help them plan their itineraries in India. They also greet tourists on arrival and helping them with problems regarding lodging, places one can visit etc.


2)Immigration department:
Immigration is the first counter where the foreign visitors have to go. The government immigration department is responsible for carrying out the immigration formalities.


3)Customs department:
These services have been existing for a long time as a separate cadre. Custom officials are selected through the civil services examination.




b)Commercial Sector:
1)Transport Services: Tourists use air, railways and road transport systems and waterways in coastal regions. There is a variety of job opportunities particularly in passenger service.
2)Air transport: Airlines operate at both international and inland routes. One can be a part of the crew on board as a pilots, flight engineers, cabin crew or can join the ground staff for supervising technical and service sectors.
3)Road transport: Tourist coaches have guides and travel staff on board. Coaches and tourist cars with drivers qualified to be tourist guides, are in great demand.
4)Guides: Young graduates who have an aptitude in history and learning languages (especially foreign languages) could work as licensed guides. The Indian Institutes of Travel and Tourism Management (IITM) offers a course after which the person can be empanelled as a guide. This is a short duration course. Training in cultural tourism is very popular.
Prospects:
Opportunities in this field exist with government tourism departments as well as in the private sector with travel agencies, civil aviation, tour operators and as free lancers. Though travel agents are working in all parts of the country, they mainly concentrate in populated cities because there are better business opportunities. Self employment is a common feature in this sector. Generally, after gaining experience and recognition in an established travel agency, agents start their own firms.
