| SFBW Staff

The Palm Beaches Hospitality and Tourism Job Fair will allow job seekers and employers to find ideal partnerships in the hospitality industry. The free event will be held in conjunction with the Florida Restaurant & Lodging Association Palm Beach Chapter and the Palm Beach County Attractions Association from 12 p.m. to 6 p.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 19, at the Hilton Palm Beach Airport, 150 Australian Avenue, West Palm Beach.

Hotels, restaurants and local attractions throughout Palm Beach County will be on-hand and looking to hire for positions at all levels ahead of the busy winter tourism season.

Hospitality is one of Palm Beach County’s top industries, employing more than 70,000 jobs in the local workforce with ample opportunities for flexibility, education and career growth.

“Hospitality jobs are perfect for a wide variety of populations, including students looking to gain some experience, retirees who want to get out of the house and be social, and even those looking for a gateway into a career with multiple pathways for mobility,” Jorge Pesquera says, CEO of Discover The Palm Beaches. “This industry provides enormous opportunities for advancement as well as people and communication skills that can be transferred to any career or job setting,”

Drew Limsky

Editor-in-Chief

BIOGRAPHY

Drew Limsky joined Lifestyle Media Group in August 2020 as Editor-in-Chief of South Florida Business & Wealth. His first issue of SFBW, October 2020, heralded a reimagined structure, with new content categories and a slew of fresh visual themes. “As sort of a cross between Forbes and Robb Report, with a dash of GQ and Vogue,” Limsky says, “SFBW reflects South Florida’s increasingly sophisticated and dynamic business and cultural landscape.”

Limsky, an avid traveler, swimmer and film buff who holds a law degree and Ph.D. from New York University, likes to say, “I’m a doctor, but I can’t operate—except on your brand.” He wrote his dissertation on the nonfiction work of Joan Didion. Prior to that, Limsky received his B.A. in English, summa cum laude, from Emory University and earned his M.A. in literature at American University in connection with a Masters Scholar Award fellowship.

Limsky came to SFBW at the apex of a storied career in journalism and publishing that includes six previous lead editorial roles, including for some of the world’s best-known brands. He served as global editor-in-chief of Lexus magazine, founding editor-in-chief of custom lifestyle magazines for Cadillac and Holland America Line, and was the founding editor-in-chief of Modern Luxury Interiors South Florida. He also was the executive editor for B2B magazines for Acura and Honda Financial Services, and he served as travel editor for Conde Nast. Magazines under Limsky’s editorship have garnered more than 75 industry awards.

He has also written for many of the country’s top newspapers and magazines, including The New York Times, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Miami Herald, Boston Globe, USA Today, Worth, Robb Report, Afar, Time Out New York, National Geographic Traveler, Men’s Journal, Ritz-Carlton, Elite Traveler, Florida Design, Metropolis and Architectural Digest Mexico. His other clients have included Four Seasons, Acqualina Resort & Residences, Yahoo!, American Airlines, Wynn, Douglas Elliman and Corcoran. As an adjunct assistant professor, Limsky has taught journalism, film and creative writing at the City University of New York, Pace University, American University and other colleges.
