Convention Hostesses  Manufacturers, Traders, Suppliers

Fair hostesses are service providers during a fair or event, most of them are of international orientation, with many exhibitors and visitors to whom this service is offered. The tasks of an exhibition hostess are very different, since the customer's needs can also be very complex. In most cases this includes: Information about the customer's products or services, translations, catering, sometimes also writing or secretarial tasks, sometimes accompanying the customer to business appointments.A confident appearance, a friendly nature, a pleasant appearance as well as good manners are important characteristics of the fair hostesses, a good general education and very good language skills in two or more languages round off the picture. Secretarial experience and knowledge of stenography are advantageous, but often not a prerequisite. A temporal flexibility is indispensable due to the limited application possibilities for fair hostesses, students can therefore be found more frequently in this profession.The earnings depend on the number and type of languages that the fair hostess speaks, especially ladies who speak somewhat more exotic languages are in great demand and are usually also better paid. Exhibition hostesses are usually booked through agencies specialising in this type of staff, or directly with the exhibition or event management. The trade fair hostess can also offer its services directly to companies if it is aware of their trade fair activities.
