Didn't someone posted on this forum that she is interning at some Big fancy hotel for this summer, and is only making just 12 or 14/hr. And asking advise for place to live?
why NYC and not another city with a booming hospitality industry?? NYC is an expensive city. Also, do you have a college degree?
No dont have a college degree ( hence the reason why im moving to new york) like.... oh i dont know me and about a trillion other people who move there every year. and no i cant go to another city NEW YORK CITY has a COLLEGE that i want to go to and since i dont have a car i need to go to a big city with ample transportation so i can save money and not buy a car. hope that meets your needs we all know your soooo important.

So you got some competition there.
Yknow BIRDY your right how about i just kill my new york dream? would that make you feel better? Ill just get a 9-5 job at a ****ty company work there for 50 years getting paid close to nothing. Thats more like it. More realistic. Give up all hope and have a crappy life because fighting to have a better one would be crazy.

Hey, trying to look out for you, last thing I want is another dude sleep and protesting in zuccotti park because he is making around 12/hr and can barely afford rent.
If you didn't NYC have plenty of unskilled labor, what I mean is people without a degree or limited english.
You think that you can get a better paying job than those who are doing 9-5 jobs? Well you can if you want to be hustler, but we got plenty of those ppl as well, lots of competition here. Anyways goodluck! Welcome to New Yorrk.

looking at jobs within my company
just got a linked in too and ill create a monster online application too
dd i leave out anything?
Well, it sounds as if you haven't bothered to check out the actual hotels, not even the chains. That to me sounds like an obvious path.

In case this wasn't clear - although I don't know how much clearer it could be - look at every major hotel chain that has a location in NYC, like Marriott, and find out if they have their own websites. That to me would be a totally basic obvious step.

you didn't state anything about coming to NYC for a college degree. Not sure why you are lashing out at people trying to give you sound advise. NYC is expensive and you have a LOT of competition for hospitality jobs. You're not going to save a lot of money with a hospitality job and attending a college in NYC. You need a reality check.
Why aren't you attending college where you live now? Are there any open positions in the hotel chain that you work at in major cities?
It's been awhile since I've worried about college related BS, but don't you have to establish residency in a state and live there for a year before you can qualify for in state tuition at public schools? (Not applicable to private ones obviously)
So
heres the deal, Ill be visiting NYC August 24-27 this year to look for work. Generally im looking for something entry level ( i dont have any experience to get a high paying 100k ) right now im just looking to get my foot in the door. I have 3 years of hotel experience so i want to go that route or anything in the realm of customer service ( restaurants, bars, hotels, airports, cashier, retail). work at a hotel So I CAN transfer i will have some interviews lined up (at least 1-2) but i like to be PREPARED so i also want to interview with the employment agencies, Scouring the web for jobs. Thinking about doing this a week in advance and letting them know i will be there on those days and would love to have an interview with them in person. personally i just feel better shaking hands making them smile and letting them know im serious and ready to work. I browse craigslist and from the description it looks like they are hiring immediately. Just need to know if i should take another route. ive heard mixed reviews about employment agencies. But just need to know if this sounds like a good plan.
Just ask if you can transfer with your current company. Try to stay long enough to not make it look like you just used them to get somewhere, if possible.
