How to become a trade fair and exhibition hostess: requirements and tasks

There are numerous girls who - during the university period or in search of a part-time employment - decide to approach the role of trade fair and congress hostess. This type of work allows you to earn according to your availability, allowing flexibility and freedom of choice taking into account your personal commitments.

What skills do you need to be an exhibition hostess? Although these are temporary jobs, those who cover this type of role must certainly possess some specific requirements, which our agency is also very careful to verify before presenting potential candidates to our clients. First of all, those are positions where the direct contact with the public it's very important. It is, therefore, necessary to have a pleasant physical presence. This is most often not related to physicality in the strict sense, but to the way in which a person presents himself at the event. Welcoming exhibition hostesses & hosts must appear neat and with a clean make-up (usually a collected hairstyle and a light make-up are required, together with well-groomed hands). In general, the one on which our hostess agency focuses more is the degree of initiative, education and availability.

For international trade fairs and congresses with foreign customers and visitors, a deep knowledge of foreign languages is obviously another fundamental requirement. An excellent level of English is essential nowadays, but being proficient other languages could certainly widen the possibilities of collaboration.

The unexpected last time problems are part of any type of event, and fairs and congresses are certainly no exception to that. The important thing for a hostess is to react promptly to emergency situations, without getting discouraged. Having a strong problem-solving skill and a proactive attitude are more important qualities for those who want to cover this position. We offer constant support to all our staff during the entire duration of the event, but it is still important to be able to rely on a team able to solve problems independently.

What are the main tasks of a fair hostess? Before applying for this type of work, it is necessary to ask about the type of activities that will take place once inside the booth. Working as a welcoming hostess or host requires spending many hours standing, showing at the same time a positive attitude and availability with all the present visitors and guests, providing them with the requested support and the necessary information on the products displayed at the fair. These are tasks that require self-control and good communication skills, given that at that moment the company's image is represented. In addition to the reception and accreditation tasks, there is also support for the booth at the fair, which may include practical demonstrations of exhibited products and involvement in activities.
