Although not always, Holiday Inn likes to target individuals with at least some secondary education. The interviewer knows that the presence of this kind of education may indicate more maturity and longevity than someone who is younger. Even though your post-secondary education is on your resume; the interviewer would like for you to go into further detail. Discuss how your post-secondary education has prepared you for a role with Holiday Inn. If you do not have any formal post-secondary education, you can refer to your previous work experience or related on-the-job training. In either case, be positive and enthusiastic about your strengths and skill set.

"I have a Diploma in Travel and Tourism from Reeves College. This post-secondary experience was very positive, and I was able to learn about the hospitality industry inside and out. My favorite course from the program was Marketing and Business Management. I believe this course gave me a keen eye for the large, and small, ways that I can make a positive change. I look forward to applying that knowledge to this role with Holiday Inn."
