With 52.1% male employees and 47.9% female employees aged from 18 to 45, thestructure of labor by age and gender of Hanoi Daewoo Hotel is reasonably arranged, in linewith the general development trend of the industry In the hotel business, the proportion ofmale employees is higher due to their higher productivity and working efficiency Thenumber of male employees of Hanoi Daewoo Hotel is not more than the number of femaleemployees Therefore, in order to improve the quality in the management and use ofemployees, in the coming time, the hotel must come up with policies and solutions to suitthe general trend of the hotel business
Labor structure by level:
In an organizational structure, the director holds an important position at the enterprise.Directors must have high qualifications to have the right business line, effective business
Trang 10organization, they must be people with economic understanding to lead the business TheGeneral Director of Hanoi Daewoo Hotel is someone who has experience in management,organization and diplomacy to lead the large hotel system to operate and develop as it istoday.
Table 1.1 Table of personnel structure by professional qualifications
From the above table, we can see that the Hanoi Daewoo Hotel has a high level ofmanager and supervisors This proves that they have accumulated professional experience
to manage and direct the work And especially the foreign language level is 100% C orhigher, and everyone knows one more thing foreign languages, but only at thecommunication level As for education and professional qualifications, 100% of themgraduated from university, none of them had college or elementary degrees and some had
Trang 11their professional training in Korea The average age of supervisory staff is 27-29 This is avery active age at work, with enthusiasm and a lot of creativity and managementexperience.
The assistant managers at Hanoi Daewoo Hotel are very demanding in terms ofmanagement experience, they must have 2-3 years of experience, have good foreignlanguage communication skills, and know how to work independently Assistants atHanoi Daewoo Hotel must have a college degree or higher, foreign language level Cand must have professional qualifications
Front desk staff consists of people, their average age is 24.5 With 60% of themgraduated from university, 33.3% graduated from college majoring in tourism and6.7% graduated from another major Front desk staff all have C or higher languageproficiency
Baggage staff with 47.8% foreign language proficiency A and 52.2% B, no one has Clevel, the reason is because the nature of their work is relatively simple, but theassessment The role of the hotel's luggage staff is not correct because they are the firstand also the last person to contact guests
Through a few general comments about the staff of some departments, the professionalqualifications and professional qualifications of the staff of Hanoi Daewoo hotel arerelatively high, but there is still a lack of understanding in the field of tourism business
In the field of direct marketing, employees are not yet able to arouse consumer demand,but only simply communicate
Thus, in terms of the quality of the Vietnamese team in Hanoi Daewoo Hotel, besidesthe strong points, there are still weaknesses that the hotel needs to overcome to furtherimprove the efficiency in management and use of human resources

After discussing with the head of the human resources department, the team realizedthe limitations of marketing communication activities at the hotel We asked HanoiDaewoo Hotel to improve these weaknesses and received the company's approval.Marketing communication activities will be carried out mainly on the Facebook page andInstagram page
2.1. Task 1: Analyze the current status of promotional activities of the Hanoi Daewoo Hotel.
We discussed it with HR manager Ms Tam, with the goal of having specific documents
on the hotel's operating system After reviewing the entire document and observing theinternship at the hotel, we analyze its current situation based on three factors:implementation process, promotion tools ( mainly focus on Facebook and Instagram ),business activities We executed this task from November 8 2021 to November 11, 2021.After researching online and contacting Ms Tam, we have the results of Daewoo'scurrent promotion activities
Daewoo's advertising process is quite good, and it has brought significant results Theimage of the luxurious, famous, and rich Hanoi Daewoo Hotel has been imprinted in theminds of customers Referring to the Hanoi Daewoo Hotel, people immediately imaginerooms with luxurious amenities, large banquet halls, delicious restaurants, and swimmingpools with harmonious natural scenery It was the great success of Daewoo's advertising
Trang 16That's why Daewoo Hanoi Hotel always attracts a loyal and stable number of guests,ensuring the hotel's business is always profitable Hanoi Daewoo Hotel has applied thedevelopment of science and technology to its image through the internet and obtainedmany remarkable achievements Because in the vast world of the Internet, with billions ofpeople using it every day to search for information about hotels, most of them often readonline advertisements while surfing the web, which is a great opportunity for HanoiDaewoo Hotel advertising and marketing services to customers.
Today, in order to increase traffic and be known by many people, Hanoi Daewoo Hotelhas boldly placed banners, logos, and promotional strategies on popular media websiteswith huge traffic The profit compared to the cost is negligible Internet advertising makes
it possible for Hanoi Daewoo Hotel to rely on the personal preferences and behavior ofguests to target the right customers Online advertising helps determine the effectivenessthrough the number of times the ad is clicked, the number of people buying the product,and the number of times the ad is conducted, etc These are very difficult to do with thetraditional advertising style as above television, newspapers, and bulletin boards
In addition, this advertising tool also has flexibility and deliverability becauseadvertising is delivered 24 hours a day, all week, all year Advertising campaigns can beupdated or canceled At any time, Advertising in newspapers and other print media alsohelps the hotel save money compared to advertising on television Time to customers isslower, contains more detailed information, and has attractive colors to keep customers'minds longer.That is reflected in the status of social networking sites, along with the hotel'swebsite
Facebook: regularly updated, has a fairly high following with more than 30,000
followers, the number of articles is updated regularly, there are many specialpromotions during the holidays,…

The purpose of the survey is to collect information and customer views on promotionalactivities such as advertising and offers for the hotel
The method that our team chose this time is the indirect form This has become a fairlypopular form in recent times and is used by many people because of its benefits.Google Forms make it simple to collect information, schedule events, and receivefeedback The form of responding to questions is also much more convenient whenusing Google forms Customers do not have to waste time filling out forms orpondering Questions are infrequently utilized and are usually in the form of multiple-choice questions so that even the busiest consumers can take the time to respond tosurveys
We shared the created questionnaire on Facebook The reason we choose this form isbecause today's social network is extremely developed The majority of individualstoday utilize the internet, particularly Facebook, the most popular social networkingsite As a result, we decided to take advantage of this opportunity to poll a largenumber of clients
