What are the actual prospects of this course? I am 32 years old and have done my Bachelors in arts.

<p data-start="123" data-end="427">If you’re 32 and already have a B.A., you <em data-start="165" data-end="170">can</em> still build a good career in Hotel Management. People often think HM is only for 18–20-year-olds, but that’s not true. The industry values people who are responsible, well-spoken, and mature — and age actually helps in roles that deal directly with guests.</p><p data-start="429" data-end="780">To be honest, the starting phase might feel a little slow. But because you’re older and more stable than fresh-out-of-school students, you usually grow faster. Supervisors and managers prefer someone who understands responsibility.</p><p data-start="782" data-end="825">The real opportunities you can look at are:</p><ul data-start="826" data-end="1117"><li data-start="826" data-end="882"><p data-start="828" data-end="882">Front office or guest relations (maturity is a plus)</p></li><li data-start="883" data-end="927"><p data-start="885" data-end="927">Airport ground staff or customer service</p></li><li data-start="928" data-end="999"><p data-start="930" data-end="999">Cruise ships (they don’t care about age, just fitness and training)</p></li><li data-start="1000" data-end="1058"><p data-start="1002" data-end="1058">Corporate hospitality in banks, IT companies, and MNCs</p></li><li data-start="1059" data-end="1082"><p data-start="1061" data-end="1082">Events and banquets</p></li><li data-start="1083" data-end="1117"><p data-start="1085" data-end="1117">Restaurant and café management</p></li></ul><p data-start="1119" data-end="1362">Starting salaries are usually in the ₹18,000–30,000 range depending on the city and company. It improves with experience, especially if you move to airports, airlines, cruises, or corporate setups. Cruise lines and overseas jobs pay very well.</p><p data-start="1364" data-end="1701">If you’re someone who likes interacting with people, doesn’t mind a bit of hustle, and wants a field with long-term stability and growth, HM is a solid option even at 32. If you’re looking for a very high starting salary, then maybe it won’t feel rewarding in the first year, but long-term, the field is steady and opens a lot of doors.</p>
