sex. However, there is a significant difference on the level of freshmen
readiness in hospitality profession when analyzed according to respondents,
age and school. The researchers recommended that the hospitality institute
should administer pre-test exam for the students who enroll hospitality
profession to measure the prior knowledge of the students. The result would be

implemented by the government, the curriculum before was generic so there
are difficulties in measuring the students readiness in the hospitality industry.

readiness in the hospitality industry. Educators should teach and train freshmen
college students, the skills and competencies needed in the hospitality industry
and lastly, the future researcher’s should study on the skills requirements
particularly in the hospitality industry so as to give the readers more important
