Interview Package - Restaurant Management

Staffing is a primary concern of every restaurant owner. Hiring the right employee is important. Hiring the right manager is more than important, it's crucial. The roles and responsibilities of managers, combined with the influence managers have on your staff, the guest experience, and ultimately the bottom line magnifies the importance of filling management positions.

The interview is therefore a critical piece of the personnel system. But the interview is much more than a tool to help you select the right managers. It is often the first professional interaction a prospective manager will have with your restaurant. Your thoroughness, organization, and professionalism during the interview will provide candidates with a preview of how your restaurant operates. The interview also helps candidates to develop a realistic idea of the thoroughness, organization, and professionalism expected of employees.
