Are you looking at becoming a Porter? Do you need a Porter resume? They carry luggage for guests. Porters can be found in hotels and motels, on ships and in transport terminals such as wharves, airports and train stations. They not only look after luggage but direct guests to their rooms, cabins or berths and provide concierge services when necessary. Porters work in all kinds of weather but usually spend most of their time undercover. Porters work shifts, including overnights, and have a high volume of interpersonal contact with people.
Currently, there are only 60 positions for a Porter across Australia with a common salary of $50K per year. While it is an extremely competitive role to get into, The Perfect Resume team has helped others to land an interview in the Hospitality & Tourism industry. We believe we can increase your chances with our resume writing services also!
To apply for a Porter position, your resume will need to prove to recruiters and prospective employers that you will have the following transferable skills:
- Loading and unloading luggage from vehicles and trolleys.
- Tagging baggage and providing identification claim vouchers to guests.
- Showing guests to their rooms, cabins or berths.
- Explaining the features and facilities of rooms and services.
- Organising transport for guests, including taxis and rental cars.
- Giving directions and answering questions about the location and amenities.
- Carrying and loading the luggage of departing guests into cars, taxis and buses.
