Other
The casino industry's rapid expansion over the last decade has opened up hospitality jobs significantly,
more so for hospitality jobs in Boston where three new casinos and a spot parlor are scheduled to open
soon. Casinos are great news for the hospitality industry as all of them have in-house restaurants of
international standards and resort amenities which mean more hospitality jobs.
Hospitality jobs are primarily related to the arts and entertainment industry, hotels and restaurants and
food services. The growth of casinos, with so many new casinos cropping up, has opened up a major
avenue of hospitality jobs.
Taking into account statistics released by the Bureau of Labor statistics, hospitality jobs across the
country, especially hospitality jobs in Boston, restaurant jobs in NYC and hospitality jobs in Los Angles
and Dallas are projected to increase by over a million and a half over the next five years.

balance between friendliness and formality.
